No Game was big enough to put immense pressure on platforms.

But developers had been yearning for Cross-play for the longest time.

 

I remember M$ categorically refusing to Release FF14 & UnrealTournament 4 on XB360 because of their crossplay features.

 

 

 

Biggest online game of 360 gen was CoD and they never pushed for crossplay like Fortnite did during PS4 gen. So crossplay never became popular during 360 days. 

 

 

As far as FF 14 is concerned then there were many other factors due to which FF14 was rejected on 360. It was not just limited to crossplay.  SE wanted infrastructure level changes to Xbox live and MS under Balmer back then was not intersted in doing it. SE wanted cross pregression more than crossplay based on reports. Xbox live infrastructure now completely different now and more open. All MS services are pretty open under Satya. 

 

Lol UT 3. Nobody cared about it. Epic dropped franchise  completely as it flopped and they fully moved to Gears and then Fortnite.

It’s not the point what was big what was small or who wanted what!!

How do we know if Activision was interested in Crossplay or not…we only got to know when releases were halted.

 

M$ categorically said NO to crossplay when it was the dominant marketplace.

It didn’t want other users to be pooled into the community.

But the moment it got dethroned it started crying for crossplay.

 

Atleast Sony gracefully accepted it while it was still at the top!!

Sony had no choice but to accept it. They were very much against it initially. But pressure from big publishers like Epic, Activision, EA and T2 forced Sony to bend the knee and take the L. :lol:

Aukaad nahi Sony ki mana karney ki crossplay ko.

 

If MS received similar pressure during 360 days from big publishers then they would have opened up live for crossplay as well. But no one put any pressure on them coz most publishers didn't care much about crossplay back then apart from SE.

And Sony did the right thing adding mandatory option to block PC Users. Xbox does not have this as mandatory. Last I checked, Warzone in xbox does not allow blocking PC users.

It’s an absolutely necessary feature.

 

Infact Playstation has such a big userbase that even the community with itself is divided into separate lobbies.

 

You will find ppl equally looking for crossplay lobby & disabled lobby.

 

Playstation is just huge at this point.

Xbox itself is about to merge itself with PC as a whole…let alone crossplay.

 

No more proprietary Xbox ports after 2026 & beyond.

 

Next Xbox will run the PC versions.

He will go down as a legendary employee who had a hold on his bosses that would allow him to continue no matter the f**kups.

Lol You can block crossplay in Warzone too. You do it from system settings on Xbox not ingame. Xbox has system level settings to block crossplay in every game.

 

I have done it myself in Warzone, but turning off crossplay dont help me coz i still die pretty much instantly now doesn't matter if its player with controller or mouse :/

Glad to see people in the comments finally talking about the flaws of this game.

It was a trilogy but i understand why they didn't want to do the 3rd one. By 2027 they would be making God of War only. 

 

The Teens section was the low point of the game and ending chaos could have been a bit better and grandeur but Boi what a game it was. They pulled it off immaculately. Very hard to pull of this game btw. That General Scene will be remembered for Generations.

 

That ending was perfect. Perfect closure.

 

Good Story, Uneven pacing, Great twists. Odin played to perfection. Thor reimagined. Amazing Combat and great boss fights. Masterpiece. 

 

Kratos heads to Egypt now :wOOtjumpy:

Man i need to stop playing black myth along with this Lol. Having more fun with wukong. This feels like a tight corridor game. There is narrow path to go along, went to first realm. Boat goes around in straight line, Small landing point. U shaped Fight area and thats it. Then the comparison isnt fair. 

This is a PS4 game at heart and another one is PS5. Lets see if it gets better later on.
