Backlash would only be from PS4 owners who make up I believe the majority of the player count anyway. Even still there's cross play with everything else. Also KB+M support.

Must be. Either that or he's a Sony employee posing as a fan. Because I honestly refuse to accept that someone can adore a COMPANY like that,
This is a parady meme like the other one about "I'm japanese and know japenese culture meme" right guys, right??
It's almost like someone corrected me earlier in the thread, I acknowledged I was wrong, and then I acknowledged that I was on the other side of the argument against Sony. Dog piling without reading through the thread is disrespectful, please refrain from it.
I own an Xbox and Switch and I'm disappointed because this keeps me from playing with my buddies who own PS4s. It also keeps me from having my buddies bring their PS4s over for our weekly LANs so we can get even more of us in on the game at once. It also keeps my nephew and I from playing with one another, whom I'd be able to play with if he played the game on literally any other platform.
It's almost like I edited that post to say 'nvm' in the moments before you posted your response to it, which is why that's what the quote in your post says, lol. No big deal
Has there been a game as big as Fortnite where it's been an issue? This game is one of the biggest of the generation.
If Sony doesn't buckle for Fortnite I'm not sure what they'll change for
Edit: goddamn haha, one post after and Minecraft and Rocket League are mentioned, that'll show me
Yeah, I just really like to shitpost at times. Guaranteed replies! Sorry!
Yeah, see my edit. Minecraft is bigger than Fortnite I think, way bigger
So I have PS4 and Xbox connected to my account. Eventually downloaded it in the EU and logged in with my Epic account and it let me log in somehow, despite trying to link it on the website beforehand to no luck.
I hope the 30FPS I saw in handheld is only in handheld and the game runs at 60 while docked.
Sony's too busy crowing about edgy 3rd person cinematic action game #452 to care.
Man SIE came off looking bad this E3.

People who play on the Playstation are not Sonys fucking property to be sold off dude.
There are plenty of people who own multiple or even all systems and they would like to have their in-game purchases and progression shared across the platforms, and there are people who would like be able to play with friends who own a different system.
Cross platform play would also allow for more niche games with online components to stay relevant for longer due to a bigger playerbase across platforms, this issue isn't about your dumb console war, this is about games and gamers getting fucked by Sonys stubbornest.
OK, this what my scenario was, so we can see how we're different and why it might not have worked. This morning i could log into my EPIC account and it would show that 3 accounts linked - Xbox, PSN, and Twitch. Once we found out that we couldn't link our accounts, and i confirmed i couldn't link my Switch because of the PSN link, these are the steps i took based on what I read on Reddit:
1. I unlinked my PSN account using the EPIC website
2. I created a new EPIC account using a different email and activated the account
3. I linked my PSN acount to the new EPIC account via the website
4. I logged back into my original EPIC account, which was still showing a link with Xbox and Twitch, and linked my Switch account
Once this was done, I logged in on Switch and confirmed my battle pass progress and skins where there. Then i closed the game and logged in on Xbox One X and confirmed everything was there as well.
I'm not sure why it didn't work for you. The only thing i can think of is that i only played on PS4 a handful of times, and i only made purchases via Xbox. I never actually purchased anyhthing via PSN.

Yeah same with me. I didn't ever play Fortnite on PS4 though, just Paragon.
You won't be able to play on the Switch unless you create a new email account.
What does this mean? When i said i never purchased anything through PSN, i meant i havent bought battle passes or skins on PSN. I played Fortnite using the account on PSN when it first came out, but then i didn't start playing again until it was available on Xbox and since then i've only played on Xbox. Xbox is also the only platform where i've purchased V-bucks.
If Epic is able and manages to get gyro working, it could put them on equal ground.
Polygon have posted about it https://www.polygon.com/2018/6/12/17456320/fortnite-login-failed-ps4-switch-epic-account
I haven't either. Only on PC. BUT I did get some free PSN skins through PS+ so that could be what has tainted my account.
Regarding your original point, as far as furore potential / current mindshare is concerned I think Fortnite is way way bigger.
Bigger than Minecraft?
Do they have Fortnite conventions? Minecraft is almost it's own platform. There's educational software totally based on Minecraft. I can't see that happening with Fortnite, deep down it's still a shooter
Well, I did "buy" some, but it was the Plus stuff and I went "sure why not." If I go to properly claim it I'll go make a secondary account just for PSN.
For real.
I'm so pissed at this, all my friends play on PS4 and I just love how it looks on switch so I'm gonna be playing there but this is making it difficult...
Ok, Crossplay is awesome. Able to keep my progress between my switch, Xbox One, iPhone, & PC is a great feature. Still not that good but i'm enjoying myself.
I do have a question, for a casual gamer, is the 5.00 starter pack worth it?
EDIT: Oh yea, I can play on my MacBook pro as well.

I've only played on the PS4 previously. I just downloaded on Switch and made a "new" account, but this is some boolshiieeet Sony. I can play with errbody else but PSN accounts. Please come to a resolution within your ranks before next-gen.
However, good thing is that now I can squad up with my Xbox homies that I wasn't able to play with before this release. Fortnite in bed tonite!

IMO, at this stage of this generation and sony's stubborness, I doubt it.
