Astralgen Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 It only does it from PC to console not console to PC and even then its only working for the switch for now since its already happened for xbox and playstation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until agreements with the platform makers get in the way.... Sure DE could do it...but the platform makers wouldn't be happy with it. After all the consoles are losing a (potentially) paying customer in a F2P game (after all Sony/Microsoft get a cut of every sale through their shop), why would they allow you to easily move your progress off of their platform? Sure they let people do a one time transfer into the consoles because it gave the game a starting player base and got them customers but there simply isn't a reason to allow DE to do it in the other direction. Basically DE would have to get Microsoft to give them permissions to be able to do this due to the agreements that they have in place. And the chances of this happening are slim to none.

They arent losing a customer if the customer doesnt intend to go back to the game unless the switch they want is made at that point its just an unused account Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to keep people from making duplicate accounts and sending them back to another console when they have these swaps they could make it to where that account cannot opt in to do the swap. Or even better make it to where your account progress is shared through PC and consoles Edited December 18, 2018 by (XB1)FX Gigaton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they do and its been told to this and many other communities over and over, you just wont accept it. Sony and Microsoft own your account. Pulling data or pushing data to that account is completely under sony and microsoft's control. They have said, repeadity, they dont want to share. Fortnite had a hell of a time with Sony until they finally caved under pressure, however, that is the exception, not the rule. Why is this so hard to understand?

Their software is run on most of the computers in the world so if anything people would be swapping from their Xbox's to their Computers that also run windows.

tCartmant Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Just now, Kyoresh said: I will if I find it Like I said, fornite allows it too but its the exception not the rule. You would have to get permission from sony and microsoft first, once they open it up, then its on DE. Warframe, as far as I know, has never gotten that permission. If they do, I would have my pitchfork out as well as I would love to have at least, cross save. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope Warframe does too. I hope DE pursues this and that Warframe's players help DE by pressuring Microsoft and Sony into supporting crossplay. 🙂 Edited December 18, 2018 by Gwyndolin-chan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
