Why the hell is cross play not a standard yet?

>>380060547
t. Sony babyman

>>380061701
Pretty much.

Considering even Nintendo have some pc crossplay titles. And if Nintendo and their shitty online can do it, it means it should have been the standard for at least the last 10 years.

Sony and the PS4 suck dick, but is anyone honestly sad about being unable to play with sonnyggers?

>>380061701
>>380062265
Sony has done crossplat before too. Most recent example is FF14.

Dunno, maybe they just don't like Minecraft.

>>380060547
You're a fucking tool

Is E3 the only time of year where people pretend to like Microsoft?

>>380060547
Bull fucking shit.

I play FFXIV on PS4 and playing with PC players is fucking great. There's no excuse not to implement crossplatform play.

>>380061701
yep, you're right.

Can the playstaition connect to a server on the internet?
If yes then the minecraft devs could implement corss platforming.

Pretty much. Since its the only time of year when they have anything to talk about

street fighter v and rocket league are both crossplay with pc

>>380064472
Yes, because Jewtendo would agree to anything that was destructive or not profitable for them and Sony wouldn't.

You're an idiot

Sony wants Microsoft out of ths console busiiness and is willing to hold back games in order to accomplish this. They're actually willing to do cross platform with PC and Nintendo, but it's a no-go for Microsoft.

>>380064472
Obviously reasonable enough for even Ninfuckingtendo to agree to it. Microsoft doesn't officially see Nintendo as a true competitor (to them) so that only made it easier.

Sony is just stuck-up and stubbornly protective of their brand.

>>380060031

Is this supposed to be a repeat of Microsoft rejecting SFV?

>>380064965
>excellent and relatively niche games like Yakuza, Bloodborne or Persona don't count because they didn't make it to the top of sales charts
>two of the exclusive Xbone entries are remasters of previously released games/already on PC

I'm not even a Sony pony but Xbone has never been anything more than a dudebro machine/console you own because your friends have it

>>380060031
This is actually good. That means I don't have to play with them.

>>380060547

Crossolay is the only reason SFV is being played

PC and PS4 combined are making a decent player base otherwise both separate are Fucking dissapoontments

I know of all the examples of sony/pc crossplay, but are there any sony/nintendo games?

>>380061701
Have you ever heard the term "cut off your nose to spite your face"? Sony as a brand is well known for that in their Pictures division (primarily because of the email hacks) so I see absolutely nothing out of character if they do the same in the Playstation division.

>>380065617
Dragon Quest X

>>380065468
And that's purely why consoles exist, to get video games into the hands of people who are too dumb to stick a thing in a port to make a PC. Exclusives are just a way to extort sales and is absolutely harmful to the games themselves, you have to look no further than Bloodborne's performance to see that.

>>380066076
I don't deny exclusives are just ways for Nintendo, Sony or Microsoft to make more money by holding games hostage to their respective platforms, but the fact is in 2017 that if you own a capable PC, the only reason to own a console is for the better exclusives, and Xbone just doesn't have them

>publisher as Windows Central
Please don't get baited, or even publicize, a tweet by a literal Microsoft shill. If Microsoft were the ones with the most consoles it would be them, just like when 360 was the most popular. Same goes for Nintendo. Every console is shit and the others just finger Sony for crossplay drama because they all know that the one with the most has the least to gain and the most to lose from a cross platform scenario. You're being played for an idiot if you think it's specifically Sony guilty for this shit.

What I'm not sure is whether the possibility of crossplay with PC makes it worth losing the potential damage to other consoles that no crossplay would do. Your position on this topic should be based specifically on what you think would benefit PC gamers the most in the long run.

Also sage because this thread is probably marketing.

>>380060031
I was able to play Street Fighter V with people on PS4 and PC without issue. I think it is more of a case that the Minecraft craze has died.

>>380065190
Sony is as hateful and bitter as their fans. MS just wants whats best for their own customers, sony wants to hurt everyone who isn't them. Pathetic company.

Doesn't this happen like every time there's a cross-console multiplayer game? Nintendo always agrees and either Sony or Microsoft refuse

>Xbots and Nintenkiddies this desperate for cross plat
>Because they know the only platforms that have a gaming community that lasts more than 1 week is Sony

Absolutely embarrassing.

>>380064428
That doesn't matter. The X-whatever the fuck Microsoft wants us to call it-doesn't have anything that isn't on the PC. You'd have to have brain damage to buy their new system if you already have a PC. You may not like the exclusives the PS4 have to offer, other people certainly do.

>>380061701
Psyonix has Rocket League 3-way crossplay all ready so they can just switch it on if Sony ever gets out their ass.

>>380068821
It's the opposite. Sony is afraid that if they enable cross-plat, their captive audience that they corral using the PS Gold or whatever will abandon them to the Switch, or soon the more powerful Xbox One X. Imagine going on Minecraft and seeing people with Breath of the Wild names or talking about how good the new Cowaduty looks on XboneX. It will be a nightmare to have neither the games nor the power on their side.

Microsoft is now officially the stronger console

Sony is backed into a corner only able to yell #4THEPLAYERS

>>380068838

You have to keep in mind being on PC means you have to buy it at the Windows Store

Nobody actually uses that, so it's technically still an Xbox exclusive

>>380070906
>I DON'T USE IT SO IT DOESN'T COUNT!!!
So if I don't use Steam does it mean PC has no exclusives now?
Plus windows store games are timed exclusives, they come out on Steam sooner or later like Ryse.

I know you don't like video games anon but /b/ is honestly a better board for shitposting.

Worldwide PlayStation Nation doesn't need to prop up Nintendo and MS's dying player bases.

>>380065468
PS4 has 17 full-retail exclusives, some of which are import-only. Xbone has 7 full-retail exclusives.

Both consoles have a humiliatingly minuscule number of exclusive games, 95% of their libraries overlap.

>>380066945
I'm okay with PC crossplay and only PC crossplay, people should specifically ask for PC crossplay which is the most likely thing to actually work rather than Sony doing the equivalent of giving away an exclusive to their direct competitors. Xbone and Switch can die in a fire, and people asking for xbone and switch crossplay are just bitter that they sided with the wrong jew.

No crossplay at all is also fine as far as PC is concerned, especially not for fucking Minecraft. Tekken 7 is also strong on PC, and pretty much any multiplayer FPS is good as well.

>>380060031

Why would they say yes to cross play? A large userbase is an argument for buying a ps4

>>380072035
Both Xbox and Ninendo are crossplaying with PC minecraft and eachother. This is actually pretty good news because, if it becomes a trend, then it can be expected in a future that less popular consoles will crossplay with PC.

This. I'd love to see an industry where most 3rd party devs put everything on most consoles and consoles can play with each other.

only reason to buy one console over the other should be 1st party exclusives

>>380061701

Well it's understandable desu my dudes. MS and Nintendo have sold like 3 consoles between them, so those 3 people really need to be able to play together to get some multiplayer action.

The PS4 having sold tens of millions, hence more than 3, doesn't need cross platform play to have an active multiplayer.

It all makes sense when you think about it.
