UBI! This game would be absolutely perfect for cross platform gaming.
I'm a PC gamer, as I love eye candy and 60+ fps gaming. The problem with being a PC gamer is;. A lack of people to play with.
We all know mouse and keyboard Trump's controller during fps gaming. That said;. Not an issue with for Honor. The field is level. I'd love to play this game, and actually be able to find matches easily.
I've been playing gow4 on PC lately, and cross platform is the future. UBISOFT PLEASE, MAKE THIS CROSS PLATFORM!
Xbox and PS4 will never play together. So you can either have Xbox and PC, or PS4 and PC. And keep in mind that whichever one you choose, that will leave us with one big community on the cross play platforms, and one tiny community on the console left behind. No publisher is going to split their community into one official main community, and an auxillary.Originally Posted by Nyankonono73 Go to original post

"If Sony gave it the green light, the feature could be up and running within a few hours."
Notice that first little word in that sentence. If. Meaning 'in the event of'. And Sony is not going to give it the green light. They have no reason to do that. They are leading the console war right now, they have no reason to compromise with the enemy. Of course Xbox wants cross platform, one of the main reasons people aren't buying an Xbox 1 is because all of their friends bought PS4s and even if they'd really rather have an Xbox, since they can't play together they'll probably just get a PS4 like their friends. With cross play, those people could buy an Xbox 1 and still play with their friends. That's a bonus for Microsoft. But for Sony, forcing people to buy a PS4 if they want to play with their friends only sells more consoles for them. Getting rid of that advantage would be utterly moronic. So they won't.
If you're making a cross-play game, you should have that set up from the very outset. Additionally, if you're making a cross-play game, you should only put it out on 2 platforms, PC and one of the consoles. That way, you only create one giant community, instead of several smaller ones, and force everyone who wants to play the game to play it in that same community. It gives the game focus, and since players are content in multiplayer games, it gives the game longer legs. That's why basically all of the games that have gone cross-play, have done it this way.
