Ps4,pc and xb1 will soon be all mixed and playing on multiplayer


this is fake news, you linked a site that has a false headline about psn and xbox live being together, when in the article it says they have not mentioned sony or ps4 at all

the website is something called awps.ml or some nonsense.

this is the real deal:

quote:

On Monday Microsoft publicly invited other platform holders to allow the same games to be played online across different console networks. Such an unprecedented move, if enacted, could bring an end to more than a decade of segregation between the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live. Sony’s response, issued one day later to GameSpot, suggests the market-leading platform holder remains open-minded about cross-console play but stopped short of discussing a deal with Xbox Live. "PlayStation has been supporting cross-platform play between PC on several software titles starting with Final Fantasy 11 on PS2 and PC back in 2002,” reads the statement from the corporation. “We would be happy to have the conversation with any publishers or developers who are interested in cross platform play." Sony's response was to a direct question about whether it would be interested in working with Microsoft.

It's not happening. Sony is the last hurdle in this and they haven't budged.

PS/XB cross platform maybe, but Sony has been doing cross platform games with PC since 2002.

There will be a lot of wall hacks, aim bots, cheats by console players when they get in a lobby of PC with keyboard+mouse players for FPS. They already make the accusations on bogus shite, now they will really get owned and cry.

I cannot use keyboard+mouse, to me it's f'in horrible. You are stuck to your desk. I like to grab the controller and sit in my recliner, lean it back and let the stress out on a fps game. Being forced to sit in computer chair and game get's boring.

Not only that, higher refresh rates on PC and less input lag.

So you are stuck on a coach?

We do have comfortable computer chairs. I rather my computer chair over sofas and recliners.

I do agree. Only games which are fine sitting back and playing are Nintendo titles. Then even in that case, I feel better sitting in my computer chair.

You should make a run to the house one weekend. Totally redone my computer room since moving back from Texas.

consoles should not be cross platform with PC except for slower-paced titles like turn-based strategy or an MMORPG. I do not want to play CoD on Xbox versus someone with a mouse and keyboard.

They had this back in the day for Quake 3 on DC and PC. It didn't last long.

I'm in love.

Also thinking about naming my first born after Korin. We named the SOs kitten Mr. Popo because he was the only black kitten in the litter.

Why not do the same for a human?

It will happen eventually. If you believe otherwise you haven't been paying attention to the world and it's advancements over the past 50 years.

Actually it doesn't work that way for ESO at all.

It doesn't? I'm pretty sure I play with people that are on XBOX.

Eta: Nm, guess I'm completely wrong. You're right, I must have confused the way they phrased their multi-platform sales pitch.

Yeah, and there's no text-based chat whatsoever on the console version of ESO, so I'm not sure how that would work even if it was cross-platform.

FFXIV on PS4/PS3 is cross platform with PS3. It's essentially a straight port of the PC version with certain UI elements changed around to better suite a controller. I don't particularly find it as playable on console, but it works pretty well.

ESO always felt made for consoles first and foremost and ported to PC even though the PC version actually released first.

Sony won't do it with XB. That's what his comment was suggesting.

I'd love cross platform for Destiny (2). It'd be nice to have the community grown that much more.

On Paragon PC and PS4 play together all the time. PC does have an advantage because they never miss, but I see PC players lose just as much as PS4
