You understand that Microsoft wants Sony users to have to create an Xbox Live account to do cross-play, right? Why the fuck should Sony make their users create an Xbox Live account? Do you think MS would allow a game on their platform to require a PSN account?

I don't get it either. Will PC/PS4 crossplay remain but in addition PC will also get Xbonex/Switch crossplay, while the latter will remain separated from PS4? Or will they remove PS4 crossplay in favor of Xbone and Switch?

They do to play Minecraft cross-play in this new version. Rocket League supported Cross-play on PS4 before it ever released on Xbox One.

Sony has crossplay in rocket league and SFV.

Remember when Sony allowed mods with Unreal Tournament 3 on the PS3 where the 360 didn't?
And now Sony has greatly restricted Bethesda's mods and Microsoft is (somewhat) more open to mods.
Being the top dog makes you hold your iron fist tighter.
>>
>>380592246
I think it's more because even Nintendo, who has been and still is a decade behind in online functioning, is up for it that makes sony look like shitters.

Yes, both Mojang and Psyonix confirmed their attempts to bring unified online to Minecraft and Rocket League were both shot down by Sony
>>
>>380592246
You see, the difference is the PS3 had no games, so Microsoft had no choice but laugh the pathetic company that is Sony out of their sight because Sony was so pathetic that they thought that Microsoft would be able to allow crossplay with a console that literally has no video games.
>>
We don't want to play with you fucking idiots, so they're doing a good thing for the fan base. Why the hell would we want to play on servers with children, Mexicans, and Pcbros?

I'm glad Sony denied M$. They're just wanting to latch onto a superior platform to sell their shitty product. Fuck that
>>
>>380592563
Yeah man, this is about people on Microsoft and Nintendo systems being deprived of the privilege of playing with people on Sony systems.
It's clearly not about how every company is willing to play ball to allow for the greatest online user base, which benefits everyone playing an online multiplayer game, EXCEPT for Sony which is fucking over their customers by limiting this shit arbitrarily.

SF5 and Rocket League have PC cross play already on PS4. I don't really care either way since most games I play have large enough playerbases already.
>>
Sony are upset that they wanted cross play with 360 last time and MS refused.
>>
>>380594620
Sony probably made insane and irrational demands like demanding that Microsoft gives them a share of the online revenue, so MS was perfectly justified in refusing them.
>>
>>380593876
As someone who plays Minecraft on PS4 with my normie friends, it really pisses me off that Sony rejected the cross-play update. The PS4 will now have the worst version of one of the most popular games in the world right now.

and M probably didn't ?

#4theplayers

I don't give a shit. PS has a big audience and doesn't need to cross platform. If you're upset about things staying the same you're retarded.
>>
>>380595019
Because now every company is on board for cross-play except for Sony, and it's starting to look like it could possibly be the norm for the future with more titles being shown for cross-play. Sony is only killing themselves slowly by doing this and making the PS4 less attractive to customers.
>>
>>380594558
Tell me how it's anti consumer whenever Sony has already won the consumer vote?

Consumers want the PS4, nobody wants the Xbone, and nobody can really get the Switch thanks to Nintendo's incompetence.

Cross play really isn't needed for PS4. Its consumer base and player base are already massive (so it's not like we're lacking players), and putting out such a large amount of work to just play with relatively small audiences just isn't worth it.

Again, the only reason why MS and Nintendo are even up for it is because their playerbases are small right now. If MS or Nintendo had a massive lead like Sony, they'd refuse as well because it's not necessary.
>>

>>380595257
Let Sony die then. They're the scum of the earth and the antithesis to good video games. A future without Sony is the most ideal future. You can't deny that a future with just Microsoft and Nintendo would be the best one, since they're both the most pro-consumer corporations of them all.
>>
>>380595019
It's never been a very strong possibility before.
Now we're in a time when everyone, no matter the platform, could play online together with the largest userbase possible, and a single company is keeping this from happening.

This happens with every major Windows upgrade. XP babbys were complaining when every game dev finally switched over to DX11, and now 7 babbys are complaining because they're missing out on DX12 and MS bringing over some actual games.

Only, XP babbys actually had a proper excuse, because they never had a free upgrade option. MS gave you faggots the chance, and you were too stupid to take advantage of it.

Their only business that is doing poorly is movies.

Other than that, consumer electronics and gaming are doing great.

Their smartphone business failed, but honestly, I'm glad they cut out early instead of trying to waste their money competing against Samsung and Apple in a fight they clearly couldn't win. Staying in that battle could've actually killed them, like how HTC and LG seem to be on their way to currently.

Why would you promote the competition if you're in the lead?

Again, as other anons have said, if Nintendo or MS were in the lead instead, they'd also refuse.

Hell, MS was the one who refused crossplay last gen, and guess why. It's because the Xbox 360 was selling shit loads more than the PS3.

I'm pretty sure the first instance of "paid online" were subscription costs for MMOs on PC, not XBL.

And no, WoW is not the only subscription based MMO, and there were MMOs before WoW.

I just want to point out that the issue here is that Sony (along with sonyfags) claimed that online paid online is cancer and were very proud that PSN is free while XBL is "shit" because it's paid but they eventually did it themselves.

Yeah, they're all retards. Phil Spencer just said that people hyping Scalebound is was killed the game. They cancelled it because people were excited about it.
>>
I regret getting my PS4. Sony are probably the most anti consumer and all their first party games are trash these days.
>>
>>380597473
Yeah but just because MS did it, doesn't mean everyone else should. If Sony didn't do it, MS might just drop it. And then again, MS is providing superior online infrastructure whereas Sony... well it's shit.

>Why would you promote the competition if you're in the lead?
Well if you market yourself as "4theplayers" then you should. Unless, you're "4thesonybusinessmen" then...
>>
>>380597023
>f Nintendo or MS were in the lead instead, they'd also refuse.
I doubt it. Phil Spencer loves video games and wants them accessible to as many people as possible.
Whereas Sony is that guy who brings some kickass ball to the playground that nobody else is allowed to play with, but his friends deal with it because he's big and strong

PS4 is also the only platform that isn't (confirmed) to be getting the minecraft update they showed at e3. Sony's gonna get shit all support and be left behind in terms of updates.
>>
>>380597723
Going to need a source for that, but even so the game was running like absolute shit at the last E3 it was at. If the game was being hyped a lot and was released as the dumpster fire that it was, then it would have made no profit. Why would you take a loss and have an awful game in a library when you can cancel it? They ran out of budget multiple times anyways.

Don't fool yourself. Microsoft is still the most cancerous entity that exists.

>>380597473
It costs money to maintain an online service, and more and more people joining it means it costs more and more money to maintain.

The only reason why PC doesn't have paid online (outside of MMOs for much of the same reason as consoles) is because most server costs are actually paid out of pocket by consumers themselves buying server space. Console users aren't willing to do that for their games, so the game publishers/developers and the platform holders themselves have to front the cost.

The only thing that doesn't make sense is being charged for an online service when your game uses P2P, but then I assume that's more related to support costs than anything. We'd also end up in a massive mess with consumers complaining about how some games are able to play online for free while their game that costs shit tons in order to maintain its servers and support isn't.

Nice lies.

>>380597924
Are any of these actually true, though?
>>
>>380597768
okay let's see if I got you, according to you:
Microsoft introduced paid online, this is ok
Sony followed them, this is not ok because they shouldn't
Nintendo also followed them, this is ok because it's nintendo right, they can do no wrong?

Microsoft and Nintendo are pro consumer, Sony isn't...totally makes sense

Until Microsoft actively blocks crossplay, you have no right to call anyone more cancerous than Sony. Blocking crossplay is simply objectively more anti-consumer.

really makes you think
>>
>>380598059
>b-but the past!
Fuck off.
>>
>>380597023
Because that's not promoting the competition. Minecraft is already on all Sony platforms. If you want to crossplay Sony is forcing you to go elsewhere. They lose nothing by allowing crossplay.

MS did it last time and it pissed people off. You will notice MS isn't number 1 anymore. It's a stupid decision that is indicative of further stupid decisions which will cost Sony its postion.

Shocking. Maybe someday you'll realize Microsoft and Nintendo aren't your friends either. They just want money and Sony's doing what anyone would do in their position.
>>
>>380598059
So you're saying that sony is as childish as their fans? sounds accurate

Absolutely friendly reminder than Microsoft are SINGLE HANDEDLY responsible for the dire state of the console industry.

Literally every shitty practice surrounding consoles can be traced back to them.

>Currently using Chrome on Win 10 and haven't been prompted to use Edge once since changing defaults
>This only affects their cloud based OS, with Home and Pro editions not having any lockdowns, even allowing unofficial UWP apps (not from the store) to run without issue

I really don't get all this Windows 10 boogeyman bullshit, and all the privacy complaints that people keep bringing up have been in place since the XP days.

To be scared of Windows 10 is honestly to be scared of Windows in general. Just move to a different OS already.

Where? I haven't seen one ad since upgrading last year.

I saw ads in Windows 8, which was bullshit. Haven't seen one in Windows 10 though.

Maybe it's a Microsoft account thing? I have my account as a local account.

Because the PS3's online service was fucking small back then. Didn't really have a massive player base, so it didn't cost much to maintain.

Fast forward to this gen. Gaming is more popular than ever, and the PS4 is poised to take the top spot. Shit is about to get a lot more expensive to maintain, and Sony is losing money from every other business that isn't games, which means they don't really have much in order to front the costs themselves.

Again, I don't see these.

Maybe because I don't use Edge though, because it's fucking terrible.

Also, that's Windows 10 S, aka, "Windows ChromeOS." Why you'd use that over Pro is beyond me.
>>
>>380599019
Nobody gave a fuck because PS3 had no userbase whatsoever, so there was literally no reason for crossplay. MS was justified in rejecting Sony's retarded idea for crossplay.

Also, what business is ever pro consumer? All businesses are pro money.

Even business who claim to be "pro consumer" are not pro consumer. They're just saying that to lure in stupid people to make more money.

PS4 has twice more users than Xbone and Switch put together
they dont need cross-play
>>
>>380591271
By choosing not to accept cross play while everyone else does, Sony will have an inferior product. I find it strange that they don't want to ok this, especially when it's very little work on their end.

>>380591343
Do a google search of "Rocket League cross play". It's a pretty popular topic right now. A lot of sites are refreshing Eurogamer.

>An OS you paid for
Nope, it's even still free if you go pretend to be disabled, which they check with a grand total of 0 steps. And like other anons mentioned, the only ads you see are the ones you're too retarded to get rid of by right clicking on them and removing them permanently from the start menu.
