The headache for me would not be worth it.
PC console crossplay?
Don't expect that anytime soon.
We touched on this as well earlier, the thing we would do to solve PC console crossplay is to detach from the Epic Games backend entirely, because that is what we're currently using to set up multiplayer for you guys, and if we would fix or implement PC console crossplay
it would be a much easier time to do so outside of Epic, for reasons.
And we also just kind of want to detach from Epic altogether, for reasons, mainly concerning dedicated server issues.
But moving the entire online multiplayer infrastructure from the backend of Epic to anywhere else is, without it being even the slightest joke, going to cost you, like, something
It's going to cost you the dev time, cost you dev time that could have gone into something like 2.0, essentially.
Not saying 2.0 is happening, but like, in theory, if something the size of 2.0 was on the agenda, yeah, moving the backend is about the same amount of work and man-hours, so don't expect that anytime soon at all.
Unfortunately.
Not even Steambox could handle it yet, we...
or you can just open a new account developers that's also a thing honestly we are growing this year we have or late last year into this year we have grown by almost 25 and we're doing it slowly because we are very wary of keeping a certain atmosphere and quality in the office here
The newcomers are awesome.
Very, very good guys.
Very good guys.
Yeah, for the first time ever the team is trying to like grow in pace with the game, so maybe we could multitask better.
