Is ther support for mobile Companion App (SmartGlass)?

[Simplex]

I played a bit of the game on Xbo One, there was a nice companion app which allowed to to see the minimap, order artillery strikes and get additional side missions. It was pretty useful:

Does the PC version includes support of the companion app?

Stickied FAQ`s are sometimes a good read.
"Q. The Xbox One version supported Kinect and SmartGlass integration. Is there a similar feature for the Steamworks version?
A: No. Both of those are platform-specific features unique to the Xbox One console, and therefore unavailable for Steamworks version. "

Thanks, and you are right, I should have read the FAQ. It's a real pity this feature is not supported, just another proof of a shoddy port.

microsoft wanting to keep kinect and smartglass integration to the xbox one has nothing to do with the quality of the port.

[Simplex]

Really? And who is stopping capcom from releasing their own companion app for pc users?

[Sbreven the 7nd]

microsoft, most likely.

It's probably a lot more complicated than just Microsoft.

So... Microsoft couldn't stop Capcom from making a PC port, but they can stop them from making a companion app (which would not have to be exact copy of Smartglass app, to avoid infringement)?

Yeah, it really sucks.

[EdwardERS++]

So by definition the PC version has less side missions because only Xbox One has smartglass missions?

Q. What about the side quests and drone strikes that were accessible via SmartGlass?
A. SmartGlass-specific side quests and additional features are not included in the PC release.

I have no idea how much I'd be mission from this. I can't even find a list of these Smartglass missions.

Yes. They can do or say whatever they want to their slave workers.
