Overwatch should have cross platform play because competitive players are going to use keyboard and mouse on the consoles anyway. I know I will.

It would be cool for private matches between friends but I can see why they're not doing it in PUGs.

Will never happen, the networks for consoles are segregated and tightly controlled, as they should be.

Dear god no, never. I don't care what 'competitive' players will use (though I think it's silly to pretend the competitive scene will be anywhere but on PC for Overwatch), normal players will be using controllers on console and they will get their asses handed to them by the average MKB user.
No, console has auto aim to help, where as pc it's easier to get a headshot if played correctly. It's controller vs keyboard issue and no one want's that. I feel like more skilled players at PC would dominate the more skilled players on console, where it's opposite with new players.
Consoles generally get updates a fair bit behind their PC counterparts... just take Diablo 3 for example. If Blizzard would do that for D3 what's the chances of them ever cross platforming the game ?
uhm.. no.
Yes, Overwatch requires much less aiming than average FPS but still the accuracy of movement gained from mouse is so far ahead of a gamepad that it would end up as a slaughter of console players. Basically: whichever team would have less console players -> wins.
