Satinpuppies Posted June 9, 2014 Author Share Posted June 9, 2014 Be prepared for Microsoft throwing large sums of money at DE to make exclusive stuff for xbox... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venarge Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 I'd assume it's because like most people, DE likes money :| Me does sadface =( This At least im not the only one ^^ Also: 4000 POST. WUB WUB WUB WUB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowCore67 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 I didn't realize DE was attempting cross play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)MoRockaPDX Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Cross play seems strong. As I recall it was account migration, one way, PC to PS4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kratier 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. being opened up to a potential userbase of millions of players is literally the best possible thing ever to happen to a game. stop complaining. more money means more content and the studio continuing to be funded for years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlayn Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 (edited) How so? like how, if warthunder can do it why can't Warframe do it? Is it because Warthunder has dedicated servers or something? or more money to throw at them... or had planned this for years. Lots of reasons come to mind. Its never as simple as one things. Also I believe Warthunder's(Gaijin's) rewards might have a small say in what is a real heavy hitter that Sony will look to with a shine in their eyes.

(PSN)i_illusion Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 The problem with Microsoft is that because of their own regulations and rulings they won't allow cross platform games, so Warframe couldn't run in sync with PC. While PS4 has no regulations or rulings so it's possible to have the PC and PS4 versions in sync. Basically Microsoft will need to decide to change their rulings, to even make cross platform gaming for Warframe possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandoran_Stallion Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 :/ big disappointment... EDIT: could you link me to where they said that it isn't going to happen. They said it in one of the livestreams, I think it was the first after PS4 was introduced, but I can't be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OniDax 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. No, that's not a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Pengu_Imperialus Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 They said it in one of the livestreams, I think it was the first after PS4 was introduced, but I can't be sure. I don't think they ever said it. They said it was before ps4 release, and then it sorted dropped off the radar. Though they announced the update release day last week this time instead of it just going live whenever it cleared cert, so maybe something is up.

Venarge Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 As if some current PC and PS4 players don't? Your right with that. But do we really need even more people repeating the same stuff over and over thanks to their inability to read the forum rules/simply post a comment instead and rather create threads with the same topic around 5345634643643 times....

Magnagar Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 This is terrible news... Yes it's nice to expand the game and get newcomers into warframe, but DE should be concentrating on their original promise before doing this. Cross play has completely been disregarded.

(PSN)InfernoNL Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Final Fantasy XIV has cross play. Warthunder has cross play. Really makes you wonder where DE is dropping the ball.

Sloan441 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Someone doesn't know what "exclusive" means. Regardless, any certification process will complicate updates and probably work against cross platform play. I'd like to see it happen, but it seems unlikely at present. I'd REALLY like to share my account across platforms, but I'm not holding my breath. Presently, I'd settle for simply being able to copy my account to the XB1. Guess we'll see what transpires in the months ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satinpuppies Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 There was something I read about other games being able to give updates server-side. Warframe has no dedicated servers, so... Uhm...warframe has game servers just like every other game that needs servers to run multiplayer or any kind of online services? Also you can't do everything that the game needs done through the servers. Yes games can give small fixes with small server side changes. But you just can't make vast differences in restructuring code or adding new scripts, unless someone can shed some light on this and color me wrong. But i'm 90% sure that you can't.

Warframe runs on a peer-to-peer networking system. As a result, there are no dedicated servers for gameplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh derp, i didn't read what he said right, before i opened my fat mouth. *facepalm* wait what. why? Dedicated servers should be a thing but i don't really see it being necessary.

BrazilianJoe Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 As far as I know there are quite a few contractual hurdles on both Sony and MS contracts which make cross-platform play pretty much impossible. Not even Blizzard budged them to allow cross-platform play on Diablo 3. DE is so much smaller, so there are your chances to get an exception to that rule. And, there are those pesky desynced clients, which also rule out cross-platform play, unless PC updates slow to catch up with teh consoles. It'd be 3 times the work for every update, and sooo much trouble. Soooo, not gonna happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)JV141KingEmpanad Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Both Sony and MS really wouldn't want cross play but MS doesn't care about xboxone basically anymore and DE hasn't said anything about not doing cross play it's just gonna be harder. Anyways I'd love to play with PC players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
