From reading various complaints about the MP my unscientific inference is that the PC version is buggier than Xbox. Doesn't make a tremendous difference to me as a PS4 loyalist but I suppose the Xbox experience would more closely resemble my own. Any thoughts on this comparison? Anyone play both?

It wouldn'the be the first time that platforms have had different experiences (i.e. memory leak on ps3) but it may also have a lot to do with pc gamers being more spread out than a lot of Xbox players localized to North America. Bad host connections seems to be a large problem as of now.

Can only comment on my experience (xbox one)it has been nearly flawless. I feel for those who are having issues but I am so psyched for Monday night, I'm considering pulling an Eric Cartman and freeze myself till then.

On the other hand though, I've heard people saying that the pc version is much better at showing the colors, especially the light ones. Everyone has trouble making a light colored person, me included, this is in sp ofc but still and I've heard people mentioning that Xbox is terrible at showing the colors properly. Don't know about PS4 yet since early acces hasn't been on there.

I play on Xbox One and I get LAG. Sometimes I get lag soo bad that my game almost freezes. It's pretty damn frustrating especially when I'm trying to run away from a horde of enemies.

Don't know about PS4 yet since early acces hasn't been on there. I have nothing to really compare it to, have not seen any mp pc footage other than the examples of lag on this forum. Though I will say the Asari appear a little dark...not that there's anything wrong with that

Bad host connections seems to be a large problem as of now. I wouldn't mind if the PS4 version ran the best. Kind of a make-up for the clownshow we got on ps3 where playing an entire faction required a tedious and complex preventative process.

Played both as I really enjoyed it on PC and wanted more time with multiplayer on silver.
On PC the graphical performance blew me away. I was getting a rock solid 4k/60fps on high (gtx 1070) off host and generally incredibly smooth to play. I never hosted so I couldn't say if the framerate would have tanked as others have mentioned had I did.
I did encounter some serious rubber-banding and audio fail at times in a couple of games over a period of 4+ hours but non of the extreme slow-downs and time-bending matrix lag you see in some of these clips posted on here.
I did notice some severe periodic slow-down on Xbox during late game objectives but it passed after about 3 seconds. I did encounter the same recurring audio problems though with sound cutting out seemingly every other game for entire rounds at a time but no crashes on either PC or Xbox.
I'm quite forgiving when it comes to rubber-banding, slowdowns and audio cutting, hosting problems as you still get all of those in the console versions of ME3MP so not a big deal to me I've gotten over all of this years ago. A little sad that they haven't fixed these problems but non of them got in the way of 1500hrs of bliss and a maxed out manifest and I can definitely see ME:A giving ME3 a good run for it's money.
I'm by no means a graphics snob but playing in 4k on PC to 900p/30 was horrible at first. Jaggies everywhere. I felt like I forgot my glasses and I don't even wear glasses.

On Xbox have have experienced audio issues with my surround sound every so often (weirdly muffled noises mostly), rubber banding is probably universal due to lag, and a single match where I spawned and literally couldn't move and I was stuck on a roof.
