Glass Bowtie Kirkinen Risk Control Caldari State 45	Posted - 2017.02.04 23:59:00 - [1] - Quote In regards to PS4 and Xbox One (in general, not in relation to a CCP game or any specific game in particular)? I've finally joined the rest of the civilized world in the current console generation with a PS4. My good friend has always been an Xbox man. I'm catching a lot of sh*t right now (as expected). Has there been any new developments in terms of cross platform play? I found an expectedly vague article from March16 about the topic. Not much help. All my friend wants is for me to play CoD with him. I know, I know. Like Drew Brees says in the Campbells Chunky Soup Everyman Allstars Fantasy League commercial, "I don't want to talk about it".
One Eyed King Nos Nothi 16287	Posted - 2017.02.05 00:11:00 - [2] - Quote Last I heard on the subject, the tech side of things is set, and there seems to be little in the way of preventing cross play other than Microsoft and Sony. I don't know which one, perhaps both, is holding up the process, but so far there has been no agreement. I think it is about time that consoles have cross play enabled, and where applicable, with PC, like Rocket League already has. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind. Any double entendre is unintended I assure you.
Glass Bowtie Kirkinen Risk Control Caldari State 45	Posted - 2017.02.05 00:14:00 - [3] - Quote Yeah the article mentioned Rocket League, and it seemed to suggest Sony was dragging it's feet.

I can see that. Sony happens to be winning this particular console generation, and maybe they think that by preventing cross play, they can coerce players to buy a PS4 since presumably more of their friends will have that one. I just wish that they would get their stuff together and let us play. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind. Any double entendre is unintended I assure you.
Glass Bowtie Kirkinen Risk Control Caldari State 45	Posted - 2017.02.05 03:10:00 - [5] - Quote Yea, I think for the most part people are brand loyal. I'll never switch to Xbox, my buddy will never switch to PS. It's even more ridiculous when you consider both systems cross platform with PCs from time to time. Maybe if a big enough triple A game comes along to coerce Sony and Microsoft to work together..... shoots a glance at CCP Oh who am I kidding.....
Pokey Dravon OSG Planetary Operations 8971	Posted - 2017.02.05 03:29:00 - [6] - Quote The only CCP game with cross play is Valkyrie. I suppose EVE could work on console but it would require a mouse and keyboard and honestly I don't see CCP ever doing it. Gunjack is single player so can't cross play that. As for Nova well....Let's just get that released on PC before we talk about consoles. As for non CCP games, the only one that comes to mind is Final Fantasy XIV which is cross play between PS4 and PC. Square Enix has expressed interest in brining XBONE into the mix but Microsoft hasn't made that happen yet. I know MS is opening up to cross play though so there may be hope there.

Rocket League is a big game that has cross play between PC/PS4, and PC/XBOXOne, but for some reason they are reluctant to finally let the cross play go between consoles. Ark would be another game I would like to see go cross play, despite the obvious menu and hotkey options, I don't think there would be that much of an advantage. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

Glass Bowtie Kirkinen Risk Control Caldari State 45	Posted - 2017.02.05 11:23:00 - [9] - Quote It a pricing issue. I picked up a PS4 for 300 bucks. What would I be looking at for a low low end bottom of the barrel gaming PC? 500 or so?

With 300 you can build a gaming PC from buying parts individually, but that recalls a little bit of knowledge that the average console user might not posses.

I fully understand but you could build a decent one for 500 i think, mine cost more but it also runs 4k perfectly..now you got sony's 4k wannabe console..I hear Scorpio is a true 4k though..idk anything about steam machines but they cost around 500 But yeah consoles are cheaper
Glass Bowtie Kirkinen Risk Control Caldari State 46	Posted - 2017.02.05 20:30:00 - [14] - Quote I don't have a 4k tv (got the regular PS4). Trust me, I would rather have a computer. I never had a console as a kid, but we got a computer when I was like 12 or something. I'm pretty particular about which games I play, so I never end up playing a large amount of different games, and honestly if I got a computer I wouldn't want to just get a decent computer, I'd want at least the top end of "good", just a touch under great. Consoles still have enough space between generations that it just seems to be a far cheaper option over time. The thought of better PC hardware coming out a year or two after building a PC is a bit unsettling. Hell, I bought my PS3 in 2011 if I remember correctly.

People can rant all they want about objective superiority and such but at the end of the day it comes down to whatever works best for you in your situation. I do hope that cross play becomes more prevalent in the coming years though, I think the market is reaching a point where people are more interested in playing with more people than they are in platform exclusives.

Talos Vagheitan Ancient Exiles. 3109	Posted - 2017.02.13 16:09:00 - [16] - Quote They could do it, but Sony/MS are being ******* with the legality. Rocket league developers said they could have it working in a day if Sony and MS OK'd it. Rocket league is X-play between each console and PC, but not between the consoles.
