Infinity Ward design director, Joe Cecot, confirmed the PlayStation blog that PS4 players are free to use a mouse and keyboard if they wish.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWe\u2019re also supporting different peripherals, so if you want to plug a keyboard [and mouse] into your PS4, you can,\u201d<\/em> said Cecot.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This sounds like a balancing nightmare but Call of Duty: Modern Warfare will actually utilise peripheral-based matchmaking. To the best of our knowledge, this is an industry-first which could pave the way for future matchmaking standards.<\/p>\n<p><ins class=\"adsbygoogle scrolling-ad-item\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0052787453283862\" data-ad-slot=\"2741061911\"><\/ins><\/p>\n<p>The way it\u2019ll work is pretty simple. If you\u2019re using a mouse and keyboard, regardless of platform, it will matchmake you with other mouse and keyboard players. If you\u2019re using a console gamepad, it\u2019ll match you with other gamepad users. This includes PC players as well, so if you connect an Xbox One controller to your PC you won\u2019t have to face mouse &amp; keyboard users. <\/p>\n<p>The catch is you cannot change input methods after you begin matchmaking, preventing players from loading into a game using a controller and then switching to mouse &amp; keyboard.<\/p>\n<p>I think this all sounds pretty awesome, to be honest, and it could prove really helpful in tempting console users over to PC. One of the big sticking points when moving to PC for those used to gamepads is having to line up against uber accurate mouse users. Being separated into your own servers is a great touch, particularly for us lazy bums who struggle to get off the couch. It means everyone is on a level playing field, and yet everyone can also play with one another if they wish. <\/p>\n<p>As an aside, this should also help with boosting the long-term community of PC players. Call of Duty games tend to fade fast on PC these days, but if you\u2019ve got console players using mice they\u2019ll boost the player count, or you can just plug in a controller and play with all the console folks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">\n<p>Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is coming to PC, PS4, and Xbox One on October 25th. Ahead of then, there are several beta tests, kicking off on PS4 from September 12th.
