Fall Guys on June 21st
While I’m not affected by the delay of cross progression (its initial goal was late 2021), I just wanna say that Fall guys will have it first before Apex. One of the excuses from Respawn was that it has legal issues since the game was not originally planned to have cross progression. Now look at this smaller game from a smaller dev team launching cross play and cross progression in 3 weeks.
Do you care about cross-progression at all? Should this be one of the priorities of a $2B game? What’s taking them so long? Even the next-gen version took longer than expected and still was mediocre.
I know game development is not an easy job but Respawn seems to be slower compared to other live-service game companies implementing these stuff. On the other hand, I’m excited to play Respawn’s sequel Jedi game though.
Going to go ahead and close off this thread.
If you wish to discuss what other games are doing in relation to cross-progression and the like then you can do so on those games' dedicated forum boards.AHQ is for discussion around EA games and while there is some discussion around APEX Legends in this thread it seems more geared toward discussing Fall Guys and that game getting cross-progression first as a way to attack Respawn.
