I'm gonna get down to the brass tacks now. I love Stadia in its current state for 2 reasons. It's unhackable, and has parity among all players. Based on the thread response: 80% want CPP, and 20% do not. Honestly that's disheartening to say the least. I'm really struggling to see Stadia's appeal if its level playing is compromised. Stadia exclusive: * Steaming? Nope * Cross-Device Play? Nope * 4k/60fps (cough)? Nope * No Cheats? Yup * Player Parity? Yup We're talking about stream vs local play here people. PVP streamer lose badly. PVE streamer is likely Leroy Jenkins due to Stadia not hosting the CPP game. If CPP is merely implemented, then Stadia breaks its "No Cheats, No Hacks" promise. Ah ah ah, wait... that's not true, you'll need to "opt in" to CPP first. Ahhh nope, I'll opt to turn on my PC, PS5, or XBSX, and sadly decimate Stadia players. Fortunately, I haven't seen any official word from Stadia on this subject in a while. Last was in a press release before launch that mentioned they'd be open to discussing it with developers. But, 80% in favor of CPP is pretty decisive, and likely a taste of things to come. I'm not using Stadia to play against other platforms, I'm bad enough lol. @ARGAH said, "Stadia is like a LAN party" with all players on identical rigs, and no ability to cheat Don't mess with that, you'll have nothing left.
