(PSN)crow5716 Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 (edited) I get that you can only cross-trade with other platforms when you have cross-save enabled... BUT not everyone wants to make their account a cross-save account and now you just eliminated their ability to trade with people on their own platform? Like what the..... You can't trade with someone on your same platform if one person has cross-save enabled and the other doesn't. I mean wooooow. I see a huge back lash coming over this.

(PSN)crow5716 Posted December 21, 2023 Author Share Posted December 21, 2023 This is a trade that was attempted between 2 PSN players. One with cross save enabled and the other not enabled. They can no longer trade with eachother. This is a game ruining problem. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pokrmon55623 Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Crazy how this was even an oversight that was allowed to happen to begin with. You would think it would just be where you couldn't trade with other platforms that didn't have the enable enabled, but to make it where you can't even trade with your own platform? That's brutal. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(XBOX)TehChubbyDugan Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 So if I don't have this enabled, I can't trade with anyone on other platforms? What about people with only one account, or like you said, people that don't want to link their other accounts. I have an old PC account I used to test a couple of things, but I could not care less about it. No plat, low resources, no progression I don't have on my main, nothing. It doesn't even have any forma for me to yoink. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter if you are both playing on the same platform, if one has it enabled and the other doesn't, you can't trade. You can still trade between players on the same platform if both people don't have cross-save enabled. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)crow5716 Posted December 22, 2023 Author Share Posted December 22, 2023 (edited) They need to do one of the following... -Allow us to trade with everyone regardless of cross-save status(unlikely and probably impossible). -Allow us to still trade with members from the same platform our main account came from irregardless of cross-save status(probably still impossible as they tricked us into converting our console accounts into PC accounts). -Allow us to revert our account back to solely the platform our main account was on and not use cross-save. Knowing what I know now, I would have never enabled cross-save. Either I can trade with the people who decided to enable cross-save and blacklist those who don't want to including my own platform friends. Or I can stay on PSN only and continue to trade with the people who I have been playing with and trading with for years and not trade with cross-play members. You're damned either way with the current system. We were tricked into thinking cross-save would just make our accounts work across platforms, not convert our accounts to PC accounts that other platforms can access.

(PSN)crow5716 Posted December 22, 2023 Author Share Posted December 22, 2023 Can we get DE to acknowledge this problem and fix this before more people sign up for cross-save and then notice this problem. The back lash is just going to get worse. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(PSN)crow5716 Posted December 22, 2023 Author Share Posted December 22, 2023 Since the cross-save idea is just to convert everyone's account from every platform into a PC account, I'm sure this is great for PC players. Tons of new people to trade with whether you enable cros-save or not because they are all PC to PC trades. But if your a console player and you enable cross-save thinking it's going to expand your reach for trading. Guess again. Not everyone on consoles wants or is enabling cross-save so you are permanently unable to trade with them. If you're on xbox and enable cross-play. You can't trade with the majority of Xbox players anymore. You have a PC account now. Same with PlayStation and so on. This cross-trade was sold to us as a good thing to enable everyone to be able to trade with everyone. We knew there would be restrictions. We thought you would only be able to trade with cross-play members if you enabled cross-save but would still be able to continue trading normally with everyone else like your friends, your clan, your alliance that you have been playing with for years and years on the same platform with. I feel very tricked and ask that we have the option to convert our accounts back to console only so I can trade with my clan and alliance again. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Netborne Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 This is still a problem. Playstation should be allowed to trade with playstation regardless of if said account has activated cross save. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CCKzTay Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 This should have a lot more traction. Someone just told me about it in my clan hrs after I did the link/merge. If you DID NOT link/merge, you’re stuck with your original trade chat console. If you DID merge, you can trade with other cross-save accounts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j.proctor Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 I can no longer trade with people that haven't linked their accounts. I wouldn't have merged my acccounts if I knew it was gona do that. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j.proctor Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 I regret merging cause of this. I've already missed out on a 600p sale. I reread the cross save faq and nowhere does it say that it will impact your ability to trade with people on the SAME platform. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentientEnjoyer Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 So now my PSN account is a PC account and I cant trade with a large majority of PSN users . And my Alias is the PC alias but the main account is from PSN. 🙃 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PC accounts can trade with other PC accounts no matter if cross-save is on or off. The problem is with console players that turned cross-save on that converted their accounts to PC accounts and now can't trade with their own clan mates, alliance members or friends from the same platform they have been with forever just because some are choosing not to enable or want cross-save 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am on xbox, and have been getting messages from the market site all day with people trying to trade and over half of them haven't been allowed because theye have cross save turned on and I do not. It will not let xbox to xbox trade if only one has cross save turned on, and even has a message telling you that this is basically intended when you try to initiate trade. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
