Why can’t MK11 be crossplay?

[oChalko]

Its literally the same port, we get no advantages.(imo) And we probably all mostly play on controller so whats the issue itd just make the community bigger and that would be an amazing thing.

[Cinder]

Lazy devs don't want to implement it

Crossplay is a massive undertaking, anyone who thinks this is easy, just doesn't understand that not everyone is EPIC games, who intentionally build their games with crossplay in mind from the start.

[oChalko]

This game shouldve been thought of it when its a direct port from console, but yeah they just are lazy thats why we are suffering

Implementing crossplay is not as easy as you make it sound.

[tragickingdom]

Not enough people are demanding it?
Steam probably would want to start charging a premium for online play to make money off gamers like Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo has?

This all could have done decades ago.

You probably if at all ever see crossplay between Xbox/Switch/PC being the standard. Sony has a hard on for not allowing crossplay. Doubt you'd see it though, connectivity, frame rate, refresh rate, responsiveness all would have to be super smooth uniformly for it to work.

[oChalko]

Epic games set a standard but nobody will follow through so thats the state of the gaming industry. We are all on the same playing field.

Look at all the fighting games that exist.
Ask yourself why only 2 of them have crossplay (SFV and KI).

Can you honestly tell me that Capcom is somehow LESS lazy than NRS?
Are you actually saying that?

[oChalko]

Rocket league has cross platform and literally runs like a dream

[Baanth]

Epic games also uses their own in-house engine. A lot easier to build games from the ground up when you know every nook and cranny of the inner workings of your own engine.

Im not even saying the game is bad but we havent recieved a game fixing update when console has so yeah i think they are lazy

What did I just say about EPIC games?
Rocket League was made with UE4, a game engine designed with crossplay in mind.

Even with that, the developers would never even pretend that it was easy to pull off.

Still haven't answered my questions btw:
