EA Disappoints Again
Again EA decide to shaft players of its games with no crossplay and progression, when will they learn? I have no desire to play this game until they sort their lives out and stop shafting their play...

Sorry the Sony blame game doesn’t work anymore. EA need to man up on behalf of their sizeable community and leverage Sony with its titles. If EA turned round to Sony and said we won’t be supporting your platform anymore Sony would literally lay a brick. I think even Sony know this is the way forward now and there is still nothing stopping EA setting up C&P across the other platforms so Sony aren’t the only obstacle here. Time for EA to move with times.
Chicken & egg mate; you think EA would threaten to ditch the most popular console platform? All those $$$? Who's really got the influence? It's not so clear cut.
Don't get me wrong, I think crossplay (with a filter to allow console users to chose whether or not to play against PC/mouse keyboard users or not) is a good idea.
Boycotting the game because it's not there right now is shooting yourself in the foot: you're missing out on a fun game, progressing, and learning about the mechanics.

Your totally right Junta but equally if players don’t take a stand they are as guilty as the console manufacturers and games makers.
All the petty console/platform battle lines should be ignored and these people should be thinking about their gaming community. Kudos to Epic and its player base as well as it’s You Tube streamers for levelling pressure on Sony to make it happen. Also there are other games like Rocket League and Paladins moving in the same direction, time for EA to smell the coffee.People just want to be able to play with their friends when they want and how they want. Games companies just wanting to rinse their player base are becoming even more exposed, FIFA is a prime example of this.
- I really enjoyed playing Fortnite crossplay with my buddy (he's on XB, I'm on PC). It is totally the way to go. Again, with a filter in place to allow players to choose whether to go up against PC/mouse keyboarders...
I'd argue that players will struggle to make a stand in the way you describe: as consumers that kind of impact & groundswell - in the volume required to make an actual impact - it's extremely hard to achieve. And bear in mind Epic/Fortnite made it happen by volume of players & popularity... NOT by no-one playing it.Junta your point is well met but Apex is flawed and that’s EA’s fault. Any shooter game coming to market has to have C&P enabled otherwise it won’t compete. Take Black Ops, my Sons drove me mad for it as it was the next big thing, within a month they were all back on Fortnite, why? Because they could play with all their mates on different platforms (yes Sony isn’t the only one out there). If I can understand this why can’t EA?
