PS4User Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I was wondering if anyone else thinks this game would get even more attention if the Devs were to bring the game to consoles. Warframe is doing well on consoles and I think Blade & Soul would fit right in. I feel it would gain a lot of traction. Is there anywhere I could make a formal request to see if they would do this?

SilverFoxR Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Well, you'd only be able to play with people on PS4, since Sony's completely against the idea of cross-platform play. Heck, I'd not want to get it on PS4, just in case they lock my NCSoft account to their PS4, making my PC version useless a la Fortnite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClassicMan Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Its already been confirmed for consoles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RavTH Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 never, unless we can play together with ps4 as pc users then that would greatly increase community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astarae Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Sony is way against console players playing pc players cuz they tried it, and console players got heavily slaughtered. Try playing on a console controller sometime. Just not as much control Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junamaki Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Console and pc playing together will never happen. 1. Keyboard and mouse users would have an advantage against controller users, one example is how much faster you can turn a mouse in other directions compared to using the stick on the controller. 2. Pc players can effectively control the market and make things much higher priced when the game launches on consoles making it harder for console players to progress. 3. Pc players have a big headstart. 4. Choosing a name would be hectic. Many more points but no more time to finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meidouga Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Why would you only be able to play with people on PS4? There are a number of games that you can play together with ps4 such games are Final Fantasy XIV, Neverwinter, and I am sure there are others. And Final Fantasy XIV you can play the same account on both platforms you just have to purchase the PS4 version and link it to your current service account. So it can be done.

JiuJitsuBuddha Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 It's really up to Sony & whether they think it'll gain customers (play with PC friends) or lose more customers (they get slaughtered by PC players using mouse/keyboard) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SalemK Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 The game will be on xbox too not just ps4. Also they will not let pc play with console because the game has very competitive pvp. Pvp in this game would put console players at a disadvantage against people playing on pc not just because of keyboard + mouse but because consoles have worse performance than a pc because obviously you can’t upgrade any parts on a console. The fps on a console is capped at a lower value than pc as well. It simply won’t work out well at all. Another thing they mentioned that they didn’t want to add voice chat to the pc version. Console would need voice chat to communicate with each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About the fps thing i think the game will work smootly i mean no lags see tera in ps4 it works perfectly And console has voice Chat But i agree with the Part that console players would be in a BIG DISADVENTAGE when they would be forced to play with the pc players because of 3 reasons 1. Pick a Name (that can take hours) 2. Pc players have a hell of a BIG head Start (maybe console players will never be able to catch up) 3. Pc players can control the market and it makes Harder for console players to progress And at last when it comes to console we would Start there where 45 is Max lv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my point, console needs voice chat to communicate but NC already said that ncwest will not ever be getting voice chat which already means that pc and console won't be playing together since it wouldn't work out right in dungeons and raids.

If people would use their PSN username it won't be a big problem. (note sure tho) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(note sure tho) You would need to pick a name for different characters on your account otherwise how are you supposed to look up the character’s profile and send stuff to a character through mail if they all have one name. Some people could have the same name on consoles as someone else on pc as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
