:D
It's not a lie... If you believe it.
I still find funny how Sony went from being the cool kid in class to take the place that the nerd Microsoft had last year, and now MS is the cool kid.
Guys, maybe Sony isn't lying. Maybe it's just that the first step on the process to crossplay on PS is to make a "Fortnite sized hit that has enough attention on it that even the mainstream media begins to report on the crossplay issue"
Jesus Christ the rabbid fanboys in here.I'm sorry to hear you were not granted cross-play for Wargroove by Sony.
However, you have not indicated the reason or intimated a sniff of why Sony declined to offer cross-play for Wargroove. You must either remember a verbal communication, have an email or an official document suggesting why it was not possible.
Care to shed any light at all?
Yeah it feels obvious they're willing to play ball only when the game is too big and visible for them to ignoreThe only reason the people I play Fortnite with haven't had interest in Apex is because we're spread over PC, Xbox and PS4 and it doesn't have cross-play.
I think Sony was very reluctant to open cross-play and only did so because of the massive phenomenon that Fortnite was at the time. The pressure they felt from the negative press as a result of the cross-platform advocates has mostly dissipated since then, and my guess is that they'll keep this program in 'beta' until similar pressure starts to mount again.
In the end though they'll have to open it up, but this was not something they wanted or planned to do, even only a year ago.
I said it before but only a major boycott will see any drastic change, either from consumers or developers but it needs to happen for this issue to get rectified.
Can you imagine if people didn't "get so worked up about" the initial plans for the Xbox One with its DRM, its 24 hour check in, etc? People goy REALLY mad and they managed to get freaking Microsoft to do a 180° spin in the whole Xbox One concept.Or 4. You have no idea, and are open to various suggestions.
what's more worrying is this reactionary bullshit to string someone up for a few words lol
Like have a word with yourselves instead, he hasn't lied anywhere, he said there open to talk, talking doesn't automatically mean yes nor does it mean no off the bat.
Why can't Microsoft let us play for free on Xbox with f2p???? Oh well, they don't so I play f2p stuff on other platforms. Do the same buddy, its not worth getting so worked up about.
Are you being serious with this questioning CEO's like that on here? They will not continue to post here if you sit there like a sleazy defense attorney questioning whether they are telling the truth or not.I'm sorry to hear you were not granted cross-play for Wargroove by Sony.

Not even Sony is arrogant enough to think they know more about cyber security than the company that wrote the operating system they use on their work computers.They did get serious in terms of security post hack... It is true
Please be joking.
I have a feeling its a security issue. Sony have a far stricter policy especially after the hack.
The post of Chucklefish said its as easy as flipping a switch but how many layers of security does that switch have?
All we know the Switch and Xbox have some wild west security measures but Sony want something far stronger. If there is a weakness in the system let's say on the Switch side and hackers gain access to the 3 consoles accounts we will be all blaming the publishers.
Guys he's jokingIf that was the answer then why wasnt it the answer?
Instead they shift blame and lie about it.
Yes, great idea. Let's cut out the highest user base to try and increase our user base.at this point, the best action whould be to take the games out of the platform.
Yeah most indies really can't afford to keep games off of any the major platforms, and PS4 is even harder to ignore than the other consoles for obvious reasonsYes, great idea. Let's cut out the highest user base to try and increase our user base.
Honestly, nowadays with ERA you never know.
And then an absurd statement about protecting children followed by months of silence!Guys, maybe Sony isn't lying. Maybe it's just that the first step on the process to crossplay on PS is to make a "Fortnite sized hit that has enough attention on it that even the mainstream media begins to report on the crossplay issue"
If that was the answer then why wasnt it the answer?

And if that is the case, then I guess we will be hearing about a ton of accounts getting hacked in fortnite then.... /s
Thank you.

Hi, and thanks a lot for chiming in.Hi all,
CEO Of Chucklefish here, we just launched Wargroove with crossplay between PC, Switch and Xbox so I wanted to chime in.
We made many requests for crossplay (both through our account manager and directly with higher ups) all the way up until release month. We were told in no uncertain terms that it was not going to happen.
From our side, we can *literally* toggle a switch and have it working. Of course policy work might be more complicated for Sony.
Just wanted to provide some balance on the issue and say that it certainly isn't a question of developers having not contacted their account managers or having dropped the ball. We were told no.
You just need to add an /s or something in a thread where multiple posters are actually agreeing with that nonsense. I also thought you were for real tbh.
No one claims it isn't true. It's true. It is also completely irrelevant here.They did get serious in terms of security post hack... It is true
I have to say it was a pretty poor attempt at sarcasm. I double-taked for a second when I read it lol
Yep, that's the issue with sarcasm over text.You just need to add an /s or something in a thread where multiple posters are actually agreeing with that nonsense.
at this point, the best action whould be to take the games out of the platform.
because many of these developers literally can't afford to take the risk of not releasing on any of the major platformsPeople said I was crazy for suggesting that but when Sony routinely fails developers like this I have to question how long devs can continue to eat shit.
Haha how is that going to work. That's just cutting your nose off to spite your face.I said it before but only a major boycott will see any drastic change, either from consumers or developers but it needs to happen for this issue to get rectified.
They likely can't justify the lost revenue.People said I was crazy for suggesting that but when Sony routinely fails developers like this I have to question how long devs can continue to eat shit before taking drastic action.

I know a few indie developers and they all say the same: at the beginning of the gen, Sony was great to work with, unlike the other two. Nintendo didn't change much but their console is very popular, and Microsoft completely changed their approach with ID@Xbox and now they love it. Again, this isn't consensus but the experience of a few friends who happen to be small developers, but it does match what we've seen lately from every company.People said I was crazy for suggesting that but when Sony routinely fails developers like this I have to question how long devs can continue to eat shit before taking drastic action.

There's no in-game purchases in Wargroove thoughIt's all about the money, isn't it? For example, Sony doesn't want PS4 players buying Fortnite bucks on another platform where they don't get a cut on sales. I can see why they're handling all games moving forward on a case by case basis.
When they start losing money over this. This isn't a big enough problem yet for people to choose one platform over the other until that happens devs are going to continue putting their games on Sony platforms.People said I was crazy for suggesting that but when Sony routinely fails developers like this I have to question how long devs can continue to eat shit before taking drastic action.

Hilarious shot from his opening speech at the DICE Summit right now.
"It's not a lie if you believe it". So he is George Costanza, lol.It's also possible Shawn isn't lying. It's very well possible he's just wrong/misinformed
