Guest DJRone89 Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Would it be right for one to assume cross-play won’t be available between the Nintendo Switch and other platforms because of how the way Xbox/Win10 are only compatible with one another because they run the same version? Abstraction Games ports Ark over to the PS4 so if the Nintendo Switch version uses the same 3rd party, is cross-play a possibility between those two platforms?

MeatyMcFarlane Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Danktendo Meme is the best. I love ark when it is PvE. It is the best game mode as you can not be reeded. ELLfa tribes are the worst. Nintendo switch is the best as it runs at a whioppong 12352165327 fps. BEAUTIFUL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Chris Posted July 7, 2018 Administrator Share Posted July 7, 2018 I'm not sure PS4 will ever be Cross-Play compatible with any game. We tried back in the day and they said no. Also a few weeks ago there was a lot of publicity as Fortnite wanted Cross-Play with PS4 and they refused, Microsoft even joined up with Nintendo to release some marketing images basically making fun of PS4 for not allowing Cross-Play. I hope Sony do eventually open up their system, but I can't see it happening any time soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit.. actually, MS is the oddball there.. as PC/PS3/PS4 can play together, but Xbox are on their own servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taken from the announcement: "A few weeks ago, Daybreak Games (previously known as Sony Online Entertainment) announced that DC Universe Online would soon feature CrossPlay between PC, PlayStation 4". I guess that explains it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that explains it. Kinda. The previously known is a lil confusing. Columbus Nova bought Sony Online Entertainment, renamed to Daybreak & cut ties with Sony so they could develop for other platforms, quite a time before x-play came in. Took about a year after that sale for the cross-play to come in. Whether there was still buddy buddy there or not.. who knows. ehehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mockdano Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 I really hope its cross play! that would be sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KasS Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 I hope it happens, but I'm pretty sure it will not. PS4 nor XBone got crossplay, so I don't think the switch will do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also looking for an answer to this question. Any info available? I have purchased ark 3 times already and the Switch will be my fourth purchase but it needs to be cross play with xbox/windows 10 store edition.

Sherlock1988 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Me and my misses want to play together online with our own screens. We have it on Xbox and we also have a switch so this would work perfectly for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quehegan Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 It better be multi-player. Just look at the description on amazon for ark. If this is just the generic discription for the other versions this will be the source of a lot of returns. Ark Prepare for the ultimate dinosaur-themed adventure - now you can take your tribe anywhere, at home or on the go! Stranded on a mysterious prehistoric island, you must explore its vast biomes as you begin to hunt, harvest, craft tools, grow crops and build shelters to survive. Use cunning and skill to kill, tame, breed, and even ride dinosaurs and other primitive beasts living on "The ARK." Advance your technology from primitive stone tools to T-Rex-mounted laser cannons, as you group up with thousands of players online or enjoy a solo Jurassic experience.

Textbook1 Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 In my opinion I think that Cross-Play could be good and bad, In one hand it'll make the community more accessible, I could see myself playing with my friends on my Switch (if I owned one) while they play on whatever it'd be cross-playable on, however the disadvantage is that fact that the Switch might have is lag its not easy to have such a detailed game on Switch like ARK, it'd have to have a high-processing power (I know the Switch is pretty powerful in terms of graphical power) but the Switch is gonna have to load miles of data if your on top of a mountain. But a positive side of cross-play is the fact that it'll help more people come together and enjoy what game they're playing, even if that bonding is killing someone's tames and destroying their base.
