The King Confirms Crossplay. My Question Is....
Comments

I'm glad i can play with my friends on xbox now. Though the question is how would crossplay swf work without external sources like discord?

I honestly think that's a survivor issue like, you'll have to find your own ways you know?
In Call of Duty, you have to speak publicly if you want your friends/cross friends to hear you. There is no party system.

I'm just waiting for cross saves 🤞

"Cross save" is the same thing as cross-progression, which is also addressed at length in that video. If The King is to be believed regarding cross-play, then presumably one could apply the same standard to his claims about cross-progression.
We should bear in mind, though, that this is leaked code, it's not an announcement from the devs, so technically this isn't an official confirmation, even if it the evidence seems pretty compelling in practice.

Then you opt out.
PC players and Console players if and when the system is integrated should have the option. I deleted by DBD on PS4 because survivor queue times are horrendous and I'm a full PC player now. Some times, the queue times aren't worth the time spent, it gets to the point where you just say "Just put me in any damn match."
Why are you afraid of PC killers? Nurse was already nerfed to the ground, she's no longer a threat.
Why the fear?
If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck.....

dont consoles run crossplatform apps you can use?

They would add the settings in game like CoD has.
It's a simple switch, on or off. That's it.

Like this.

Then it's probably a duck, but it's still worth acknowledging the possibility of its not being a duck so God can't be blamed if it turns out to be a goose.

I don't think anyone would be angry, it's a feature that's widely requested so it'll (hopefully) eventually come.
I'm staying hopeful.
0 -
Oh yeah, I'm very hopeful as well. It's just that there have been a lot of times in the past where content has been leaked and then things never got released or were changed significantly from the leaks, and people felt betrayed by the developers even though the devs themselves never announced anything. So I think it's always worth remembering that even if something seems extremely likely, it's never 100% confirmed until it's announced through an official source, just to avoid disappointment and misplaced blame if things don't go as expected.

Gonna cross my fingers. I have a couple of people I'd like to play with, but I'm primarily a PC gamer, and they're PS4 folks. We shall see. 🤞
Edit: And does anyone know when the anniversary is? Even a rough estimate.
0 -
Wasn't it basically already confirmed with the bug when pc streamers played in ps4 lobby's?
0 -
I was wondering that myself. Most of the reported were like...speed hacking though.
0 -
Not directly on the platform, as far as I know. At least, not that I know of on Xbox.
Well yes, but actually no.
They were confirmed to be hackers. When that comes about, then we don't know if it was a feature they were going to test/implement, or if they legit hacked into the Playstation Network, which people have been proven to do before. Until we get a word from bHVR themselves, then I'm not going to hold my breath.
It'd be lovely and I can have a decent reason to convince my mate who is doing Youtube to have a couple of games on his channel, grow it to monetisation numbers and have a decent reason to slaughter him mercilessly, considering he's on PC or PS4 and I'm only on Xbox.

If this means that i can finally queue up as survivor, i am all for it. I actually enjoy solo survivor.

The actual anniversary is June 14th, but that's a Sunday this year, so any events or streams around the anniversary will probably not happen on the day itself. Either way, we can probably expect to see some anniversary-related things happening around mid-June.

Same.

I wouldn't even turn it on. Predator Hunting grounds already proved to me that crossplay with PC is a bad idea.
0 -
tons of people cross play the current cod...
0 -
I saw you moved from ps4 to pc. If cross progression becomes a thing after cross play, i'm moving to pc for both survivor and killer🤟
0 -
I don't play COD so I couldn't care less about it. From my experience I don't want crossplay with PC hackers and manchildren streamers.

PC currently HAS a crossplay option between the PC Microsoft Store and Steam. There is a little toggle you can go to to switch "Crossplay" off in the menu.
And your fears about hackers are a little... strange. I maybe don't think you remember what happened during the console dedicated server test earlier this year, but crossplay had nothing to do with it. Hackers just put themselves, or streamers, into console matches, creating their own little version of crossplay that was completely unaffected by ACTUAL crospslay. That's not an issue with legit crossplay at all, just dedicated servers. Which are their own, separate issue. As, in fact, are hackers: BHVR flicking a switch to enable people on console and PC to que together has nothing to do with hacking dedicated servers to put yourself or an unwitting streamer into a broken match.
And as for hackers, they are a real issue that, thanks do the magic of dedicated servers, everyone will now have to deal with. But hopefully that means more people recording and reporting hackers in the act.

You do know that hackers invaded PS4 and Xbox lobbies right?
If a hacker wants to hack, there's no stopping them.
I think I'll do the same. =]
0 -
I hope there is an option to disable it for PC. If I wanted to play with them, I would buy a PC. Xbox is fine
0 -
I hope, and I'm sure they'll have a switch.
It's the responsible thing to do. I respect people's choice to opt in and out.

What do you mean? Streamer like ohtofu hacked into PSN? The hell are you talking about lol

a youtuber speculates something that will probably not be available for months,years

I don't watch Fake Meat, and I never said 100% of them were. But the initial wave of them were apparently hackers according to what people have said on the forums. It's probably a case of hackers opening up the link, and a few people accidentally finding their way into PS4 lobbies.
I'm not an expert on the subject, just going off what other people have said.
Literally go and find earlier threads talking about this.
0 -
Does this also mean that consoles and mobile will have access to PTB's as well? Or will cross play just be disabled for PC PTB?
0 -
Sorry but if you just go after what random people say in this forum there is no real base to discuss
1 -
Pretty sure one of them was Peanits. And again, there were plenty of threads about it at the time. You could find any one of them and they'd be able to give you more information than me. I didn't look that deeply into it, because once again, I'm an Xbox player and this issue has not affected me.

Until they optimize console I sincerely hope this never sees the light of day.
1 -
I don't understand why. Console queue times are hell because killers aren't playing.
This will solve the issue.
0 -
I'd rather wait for a fair match than get one where I get destroyed because players are on a better version of the game than I am.
0 -
I don't think there's a way for console players to acquire the PTB. Maybe by downloading a free version of the entire game?
Even if queue times are terrible for console players?
0 -
Absolutely. I'd rather have one good match than five bad ones.
0 -
As long as they make it optional. I personally won't ever do it. PC would clearly have an advantage. Console to console maybe, but never console to pc....
0 -
Yeah, I guess we'll see.
This post is no longer making it to the top because I think they don't want people to find out.
