DiveGamer Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 With Cross Platform Saves now slowly hitting it's stride, is there any chance that founders exclusives will also become usable on Console? I originally played on PC only and never made use of the account transfer to console, and more recently created an XBOX account. With the release of Cross Platform saves, I have now merged both account, and realised that I cannot access any of my founders exclusives on Console. Having looked online, it appears this was done waaaaay back in the day to prevent "confusion amongst console players", but with cross-platform play being a thing, and now also with the addition of cross-platform saves, that seems a bit silly. Are there any other founders out there who might have the same thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highly doubt any of the console companies give a damn about excal prime existing. There isn't a reason for DE to keep it on PC only, a bit unfair for the people that basically funded the game 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as i know, they already made a statement regarding this, that Founder Exclusives will not be accessible on Consoles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original console players were never given the opportunity to be founders, so it's best to not stir up any additional animosity in the community.

So what? I feel like this is such a cheap excuse to restrict purchased items for a subset of players. I assume the real reason is one DE can't get into, so they just have to work with the "we can't/won't, sorry". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct 3 hours ago, (PSN)robotwars7 said: nobody is getting exclusives from other platforms, end of. DE have said this a bunch of times already. and correct again. What cosmetics are purchased on a particular platform stays on that platform. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jarriaga Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 (edited) I wonder if this approach is unique to DE or if people are expecting something that has never been done. Are there other cross-save games with platform-exclusive items you can use in a different platform? Edited January 26 by Jarriaga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ersedu Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 (edited) For time being Founder stuff is locked to pc as is other platform exclusive stuff to respective platforms like ps plus packs and tennogen could change in the future founders packs were also available to buy on console at launch but required moving to pc Edited January 26 by Ersedu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
