Episode 549: PS4 Crossplaying

The crew realize how prickly gamers are getting. Lootboxes may make them complain, but it won’t stop them from paying. Exclusive DLC? That seems to be a bridge too far.

The news includes:

  • Modern Warfare fans are cancelling pre-orders over Spec Ops exclusivity
  • PS4 cross-play features reportedly out of beta, now available to all developers
  • French CS:GO players can preview loot box contents now, but still have to claim them

Let us know what you think.
