I've considered learning this run since its brand new. But I run on xbox one. Has the mod team had any discussions regarding spliting platforms before the PB's begin rolling in?

seems like it got same fps

Load times could be vastly different depending on platforms though.

as far as i can tell it may be best to split them

i think it would be wisest thing to split atleast PC and Console, at the moment i don't see need of splitting PS4 and XBOX seperately, but i think Console and PC should be seperated.

how do we make sub categorys

I have done it for you @Daniel_1RDDaniel_1RD

I do agree with Thomc comments and believe PC & Console should be seperated as PC has a much bigger advantage when it comes to its hardware (load times). Also we will have to consider a load removal for PC at some point to keep the competition at a fair playing field
