Why EA Sports PGA Tour Should Enable Cross-Play?

 

Hey fellow golf enthusiasts,

I'm here to advocate for something that I believe would immensely benefit the entire community of EA Sports PGA Tour players: cross-play functionality. As someone who has been enjoying this fantastic game for quite some time now, I can't help but feel that enabling cross-play would be a game-changer in the best possible way.

Here are a few reasons why I think cross-play should be implemented:

  1. Expanded Player Base: One of the most significant advantages of cross-play is the expansion of the player base. Instead of being limited to playing against others on the same platform, cross-play would open up the possibility of competing with a much larger pool of players. This means faster matchmaking times, more diverse opponents, and an overall more vibrant and dynamic online community.

  2. Enhanced Competition: Playing against a wider range of opponents can only improve the level of competition in the game. Facing off against players from different platforms means encountering different playstyles, strategies, and skill levels. This diversity not only keeps the gameplay fresh and exciting but also provides valuable learning opportunities for players to improve their own skills.

  3. Community Unity: Cross-play has the incredible ability to bring together players from different gaming platforms, fostering a sense of unity and camaraderie within the community. Regardless of whether you're playing on Xbox, PlayStation, or PC, we're all here because we share a passion for golf and gaming. Cross-play eliminates unnecessary barriers and allows us to come together to enjoy our favorite pastime, regardless of the device we use.

  4. Longevity and Sustainability: By enabling cross-play, EA Sports PGA Tour would ensure the longevity and sustainability of the game. As time goes on and player populations naturally fluctuate, cross-play helps maintain a healthy player base by preventing any one platform from becoming isolated or experiencing dwindling numbers. This, in turn, ensures that the game remains relevant and enjoyable for years to come.

  5. Accessibility and Convenience: Last but not least, cross-play simply makes gaming more accessible and convenient for everyone involved. Whether you're a console gamer or prefer to play on PC, cross-play means you can connect with friends and fellow golfers regardless of the platform they're using. No more platform exclusivity getting in the way of enjoying a round of virtual golf together!

In conclusion, enabling cross-play in EA Sports PGA Tour is a no-brainer in my book. It's a win-win situation for players and the game developers alike, offering expanded player bases, enhanced competition, community unity, longevity, and accessibility. Let's come together as a community and show our support for cross-play in EA Sports PGA Tour!

What are your thoughts on this matter? Do you agree that cross-play would be beneficial for the game, or do you have concerns or objections? Let's discuss!

Pls do not answer with,

"We are always trying to bring you the best golf game on the market with EA SPORTS PGA TOUR, which we know includes a variety of features like crossplay. At launch, crossplay will not be a feature that appears in-game, but we are constantly evaluating the possibility of this feature appearing post-launch.

There are a variety of ways you’ll be able to play with your friends in online modes throughout the game. Cross-Platform progression is available for your created golfer so you can save your gear, outfits, and achievements to access your created golfer across PC, PlayStation, and Xbox."

Love,

DJ

    @Katybee_1313 I think they are trying to avoid the crap show of the PC players are cheating or the PS5 players shots are always too straight Xbox players don't roll out as far I'm not claiming anything i can just see it now. IMHO

    Absolutely agree with the point you are making. I could imagine all the drama coming from the Friendly Neighborhood Rage Spammer (I will not name them). It  is unlikely they will top the leaderboard since the PS5/PS4 and Xbox gamers are that dam good. Most sports games have cross play and it would be good to have it. That would show which gamers are really good.

    Like PGA 2K23, there would be option to disable crossplay. The choice would be nice, though.

    @Mark_Miwurdz I agree there should be cross play. You can all ready download Xbox digital games and play them on PC so atleast you should be able cross play with Xbox.
