psy net?

If you're on PC it means they're a PS4 player
If you're on PS4 it means they're a PC player

What DFogz said, if people show an icon of Psy net, it means they're crossplatform from the one you're playing on

We had crossplay right from the start...

all my friends use PS4 and I was smart and Bought the game for Steam. I want us to be able to play with each other, otherwise whats the point of crossplay? just so they can say it, seems pretty misleading to me.

also My PS4 friends had to pay 50 extra bucks (for PS+) to play online.

Whats up with that Dev's?

[keRSER_]

I agree.

psynet is psyonix (the name of the company) network that enables one to play cross plateform. So phy for psyonix name and net the network it uses.

>implying that the devs have control over sony's policies

You have to pay for ps+ to play online multiplayer in any game (to my knowledge) just like xbox live gold, and both services give you free monthly games/sales etc. So it isn't all bad for them.

Also you gotta think about how hard it is to implement the ability for players to not just connect to the same servers regardless of platform, but for them to be able to interact with each other. The only way I think it would work is to join some kind of lobby server or somehow connect to the network, and psyonix's network would then have your current username that it pulls from your steam/ps+ account, and then you can search for your friends current username, and send an ingame invite. However this could be impossible, I don't know much about server/network infrastructures.

I believe there's an option to turn crossplay off for that.

[TheBigSmooth]

Everyones talking about how hard it is to implament all that... did anyone play portal 2 on ps3? it had steam built in so you could cross play. Shouldnt be hard to do that or have them connect with Steam users. other games can do this very easily
