Could cross-platform gaming take hold next generation?

Both PS4 and PC gamers will be able to play together online in Warframe - due to be released on the PS4 after launch. PS4 Cheats looks at whether this could be the start of a wider cross-platform gaming era and whether potential issues (such as hacking from the PC side) will be handled.

cross-platform competition between ps4, pc and xb1. There has been PC/PS3 cross-platform games and PC/360 cross-platform games.

Please let there be a game that supports all 3 next gen.

You have to many bubbles, lol

Theres only been a few cross overs and the only 360/PC crossover I can think of is Shadow Run. I dont think we will ever see an X1 and PS4 crossover.

Sony has shown interest in doing cross platform play, so I think it's up to Microsoft on this one. Whether we'll see it or not anywhere in the near future. I know devs have wanted to do it on a couple games this gen.

The Meerkat4359d ago

MS would never allow it.

Imagine what would happen if it PS4 gamers won 51+% of the time at COD.

@The Meerkat Just look at what the Final Fantasy XIV devs have been saying...

"Specifically, Microsoft refuses to allow titles to share multiplayer servers between other platforms. For Final Fantasy XI's Xbox 360 release the company made an exception - presumably to curry favour with Square Enix to secure Final Fantasy XIII's release for their console - but no such exception has been made for the latest MMO entry. If Square Enix want to release it, they'd have to offer another set of servers for the Xbox 360 release. PC, PS3 and PS4 are all intended to share with no boundaries once released."

NEVER place a console in league with the PC. It does not matter how powerful you think your console is. It is not a PC.

The PC is not a console and no consoles strength is on par with it.

Also, do not label the PC in with your "gens". Only PC games have generations, not the PC itself.

That is all.

Yeah, let's take the console wars online. Put your gaming skills where your mouth is.

I can't wait to dominate console fanboys in games. ;-)

I think it's time that we get everyone together, and with the advances of the new systems, plus the way games are made now, being very similar across console and PC, this could be a real possibility. As the games won't run in a completely different way from one to the other.
MMO's could benefit from this greatly with more players, having a large community is important to these types of games, could easily take a game from having 2 million users to having 4 or 5 million users. Especially if all are included PC, PS4, and XB1

jukins4359d ago

There's only one player in this game that's stopping this from happening and its Microsoft. Its also the reason ffxiv won't come to xbox1 or 360 because Microsoft wanted a separate version that only PC and Xbox could cross platform play.

Funny thing is they allowed ffxi to be cross platform but only so square would follow up with more final fantasy games. But oh well is what it is

M$ is scared it's ” ELITE ” players will get pwned, and for good reason.

AgentSmithPS44358d ago

I'd love to play battlefield 4 on ps4 vs the 98% of xbox users that don't use mics :) (on 360 i suffered playing with them). I'm a little worried about the 'wall hack' griefer glitching etc that pc can bring to the table though.
Most of all I'd love to destroy the arrogant childish pc punks that put down console gamers (if your pc is so great why aren't you playing games right now, did you have to upgrade so you're butthurt?)
If gamers unite we have the power to force these things to happen, I'd like to see the end of permanent 1 console exclusive games, maybe give them a 1 year exclusive at most but all gamers deserve to be able to play great games.

I have been playing Warframe for a few years, and it is one of the best free-to-play games of all time. Normally in progression style free-to-play games, the developers put in artificial barriers to force you to spend money, but that does not happen in Warframe. What makes this better is that premium currency can be traded. That is unheard of in other free-to-play games.

If you are looking for a free-to-play live service game to play, then I recommend Warframe. Just proceed with the expectation that the game does not do a good job of explaining its systems or progression, so you will need to follow a youtuber who is dedicated to that game to help you out. In addition to that, the game is grindy but does not have some insanely low drop rate, so there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I think the lowest item drop rate is around 5.88%, not the 0.00000002% you see in other free-to-play games. There are also hordes of enemies, so it is not too difficult to get what you need. It is also rare to farm for something with such a low drop rate. These days I find myself farming the stuff with a 15-20% drop rate.
