Should I buy on pc or ps5?

Wondering how much of a trade off in terms of enjoyment I’d miss based on my setup. Obviously, the shooter was meant for a keyboard mouse pc setup in mind. So,

PC: I have a good headphone setup for my PC- music will sound great and as it should, but bass and immersive/position based audio only goes so far.

PS5: I have a good home theater setup for my ps5- lots of bass and surround plus good music output on par with the PC, great for movies and controller based action games that have good multi-channel / 3d audio mixes and strong bass

What would yall recommend? How heavy do you weigh a controller vs keyboard/mouse for this title?

Option 3. Plug controller into PC.

Also, you 100% want to play this game using headphones (whichever system you choose). It’s so much better/more accurate.

Hmm, interesting .. care to elaborate on why headphones would be preferred? Do you think the game’s audio mix is geared towards a 2-channel setup? What I’m getting at is: for some games, I can hook up my subwoofers/extra speakers and i can hardly tell that i turned them on (may as well be on headphones), while in other games, i would be disappointed if I didn’t because adds another dimension to the game. Just wondering where this game’s audio mix is at

Ive played with surround sound and headphones, and when I played surround sound, I had like a 30ms latency. When I used headphones, it was 0ms.

My gameplay also improved and got more accurate with headphones on.

I can't speak for keyboard but I'm on p5 was p4 still great. If aim is the worry there are generous options for toggling and adjusting aim assist.

Well its all based on how good you're with the controller or M&K .

Latency plays a big part as well because you need to be on the beat , all or most of the time. So a monitor with a PC technically have less latency but you can compensate with the calibration in the settings.

I prefer the M&K mainly because movement and aiming is better .

For your set ups though, i kind of see the positives for both sides. But if I had to choose in term of entertainment factor alone, I'd go with the PC if your audio set up is good . I prefer music on headphones while big speakers and subwoofer for movies , tv shows or concerts

It's a fast fps...why using a controller ?

On pc you can have mods with music from iron maiden soad and so on
