I just want dust to live and PS4 will get Dust of life support for a bit. inb4 pc master race Not sure if it counts, but I'd prefer multiplatform to either one or the other. That would be fantastic, but I'm not sure if it'd be possible. Off Topic: Do you plan AC: Infinity and are you looking forward to 7? On topic...I don't see why it wouldn't be possible, PS4, PC and XBOX One at least share the same architecture, and there are other games that have done it.
The problem isn't multiplatforms but more cross play between the three and the quickness of receiving updates. Warframe is a good example of this. They had to pay Sony and Microsoft megabucks just to allow PC users to have a one time chance to transfer stuff (MR levels, weapons, suits, platnium) from their PC account to their console account. If they (Microsoft and Sony) went to that extent to do that, is it not reasonable to assume that they will not support crossplay? And that was for a 48 hour period.
On top of that, updating a PC game is quicker and easier than consoles and they don't have to go through a certification process. For crossplay to be achievable, first you need to have all versions of the game up to date with each other. The work around would be to release the update for the PC the day both the Xbox and PS4 versions are certified. This is highly unlikely as both consoles certify at different rates. Sometimes the Xbox is finished its certification before the PS4, sometimes the PS4 finishes first.
Now I am not saying PC is the best (honestly I don't give a damn about console wars, just want to game), and I am not saying that it's not a good idea, however what I am saying is that PC is the best option. The tech can be constantly update and the content can come out faster. Once Sony and Microsoft stop their d.ck measuring contest, which has roped all the PS and Xbox Fanboys into it, then maybe we can start to think of multiplatforms and cross play.
