Needs Crossplay

[Acestar]

Lack of Crossplay is a disappointing choice.

One of the main arguments against crossplay is that console is way more restricted as far as outside software messing with gameplay. On PC it opens a lot of potential problems with cheating. And sure you could do some things to keep it from happening, but if you have the option to have a portion of players being completely secured why not.

Save editing was pretty rampant in monster hunter world. Monster hunter world a large portion of players just edited their saves which kinda kills the multiplayer for some people.

Option to turn on and off crossplay works wonders and keeps multiplayer game alive. Choice of playing a game on whatever platform is great as a Single player experience, but diving and forcing me to choose for a Multiplayer Experience sucks. especially in this day in age.

I just researched something about it and found this>

Yes, Granblue Fantasy: Relink does have crossplay. However, it is only between the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 version of the game. Currently, there is no crossplay between the PC and PlayStation versions of the game. This is according to the game’s official website, which states in no uncertain terms, “Cross-platform play is only available between PS4 and PS5.”

If that's true, that doesn't sound interesting at all.... It looks the same as the pre-sale bonuses and versions of the game. PS is getting a lot of different content from the PC version.

Sort of yes, but for instance. You could have it swapped on get carried by people who cheated on pc and bring it over to noncrossplay. So while it fundamentally would help it could still lead to an imbalance of progression across the base.

If its anything like like Monster Hunter or any COOP MMO for that matter, you will most likely see/matchmaking with those players in end game not beginning to mid. And in most End Game common COOP Mulitplayer RPG Style games your level and gear will only get you so far, until its all about skill and cooperation. So it will hardly matter if console players got groomed by a PC players. Only players you have to really worry about is actual Game breaking hackers, which i rarely see in pc gaming anyway, so if you turn off crossplay minimize the encounter even further, So the fear mongering of crossplay is bad for console needs to stop.
