we've got to see an end to instancing first, all of us commanders need to be able to play in the same shared events at the same time.
It's time to push for Cross-Play
- Thread starter SVL KrizZ
- Start date
That's elite's most pressing issue IMO. Needs to be made into an actual multiplayer experience like it claims to be.
That's been a "pressing issue" for a few years.
Honestly don't see it changing at this point, it was an intentional design choice.

Sounds great in principle, but do you want to wait for hours before you can dock?
Build bigger stations.
Would love this to happen BUT after crime & punishment has been fixed.
Console gamers are generally younger and OPEN is questionable at the moment without an influx of more players.
Balance the game first
You would be suprised at how many older people play elite on xbox younger people dont have the patience to play a game like elite

With customization the game will never "be balanced" 100%. Just open the doors and let's see what happens.
I'm on xbox, i'm 24, i do have the patience. But you are right, even on xbox most CMDRs are either my age or older, it's not like cod or fifa.

I would love cross play!!!
Even if it was just for PG's (in case there was concern about unfair advantages for those with higher resolutions and frame rates - a reason many companies give for not doing cross play)
Why? Well most of my friends have Elite on XBOX and I'd love to play with them using my PC account (and Oculus Rift)
Not sure if it will ever happen - but I hope so!
It makes sense to me especially consixering the constant complaints from.some players about a lack of players in open... AS LONG AS there's no technical issues that give one platform an unfair advantage over another, or dumb one platform down so that another could cope etc.
(I'm not saying that WOULD happen, I don't have a clue about it, just saying it would be a deal breaker for me if it did happen.)
As an Xbox player I would love that!
Microsoft has been on with whoever wanted to do crossplay since they launched W10, iirc from some Dev replies crossplay would have been a development nightmare and they chose to stay out of it.

i would like it, where i would LOVE it would be CQC however. we need as many players as possible in that.
also would be great fun if each platform had a unique skin so could have fun matchups of xbox vs ps4, PC vs xbox etc etc if they wanted.
You are thinking of 'Xbox Play Anywhere' which allows a single digital purchase of a game and you get the Xbox and PC version. These games include shared progress back and forth between PC and Xbox and I think therefore they are also crossplay.
Yes the catch here is the PC version is a Windows 10 game from the Microsoft store.
xbox-play-anywhere
But a game can be crossplay on Xbox and PC without having to be a Play Anywhere title.
Although as a PC and Xbox player I would also love to have shared progress between Elite on both platforms but with that I would also want support for a couple of commanders on PC.
But just having crossplay alone would be great.
