NearlyDedicated Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 I thought cross play was shot down a long time ago. At first they said maybe if the builds were in sync. But that hasn't happened yet, nearly half a year later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satinpuppies Posted June 9, 2014 Author Share Posted June 9, 2014 But why? Warthunder just launched on ps4 for north americans last week with cross play enabled ;c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Upgreid- Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 They already said 'Crossplay is not going to happen'. That is, unless we get dedicated servers and instant cert from Sony (and now Microsoft)... And I don't think DE has that sort of bargaining power.

Satinpuppies Posted June 9, 2014 Author Share Posted June 9, 2014 At first i had hope, but now that Microsoft is thrown into the mix. I really don't think it'll ever happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)StoneRevolver Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 They can't even handle managing Ps4 on a proper level and now they announce Xbox version. Right. As if that's going to go well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rajko Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 The cross play element is really up to Sony as I understand it. The only alternative would be to hold the PC players at the same patch mark that Sony has released up to. Which might actually be a good idea, but would place Warframe's release schedule into Sony's hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satinpuppies Posted June 9, 2014 Author Share Posted June 9, 2014 It was never in the window, realistically. How so? like how, if warthunder can do it why can't Warframe do it? Is it because Warthunder has dedicated servers or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katakuna Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 How so? like how, if warthunder can do it why can't Warframe do it? Is it because Warthunder has dedicated servers or something? Because the PC version updates faster than the PS4 version. Simple as that. Either DE would have to slow down or Sony would have to speed up. Neither of which seems like a realistic/attractive option for all affected parties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in Warthunder Pc and ps4 update at the same time and they update more often than warframe... Just wondering what is going on with the devs over at gaijin and how they are able to it...

Just wondering what is going on with the devs over at gaijin and how they are able to it... Mm, that is a mystery I do not know the answer to. I'm unfamiliar with Warthunder's development, and their relationship with Sony. All I know is that in Warframe's case, what I spoke is truth.

Aggh Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 (edited) Just because xbone wouldn't do it doesn't mean sony wouldn't. Though it's a moot point since the builds likely won't ever be in sync. Last time I checked, DE said that WF isnt coming to Xbone... They just announced it today :| https://twitter.com/PlayWarframe/status/476062938554720256 Edited June 9, 2014 by Aggh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
