They should only intervene when someone(that is actually involved) asks them to intervene and only then if it is some blatant BS.

Yeah, agreed.

Apparently they needed to disable cross-console compatibility because Sony wouldn't engage with them....

I don't believe Sony being unwilling to do crossplay affects the rest of them doing crossplay. My understanding is that in other games the crossplay architecture is still there, just the switch isn't flipped on Sony's end. I think a FO title would be a LOT harder to do crossplay for than, say, Rocket League, but MS/Bethesda are just running with Sony being jackholes as an excuse.

They won't do crossplay with PCs, because we don't want to play with filthy console peasants.

It would be hilarious being able to snipe them from two pre-loaded sectors over.

Well I don't want to play with someone using Cheat Engine! SO THERE!

There's been a lot about their business practices... I heard they they refused to let Fortnite players onto the PS4 version if they ever tied their account with a PC or XBox, or some other nonsense like that. Apparently according to some ex CEO or something, they were just greedy about exclusives. Per your comments though, I think it'd be foolish of Sony to keep their line with a large release like a FO title, I think we'll see that change before release.

And... apparently I found a translated article of the one I had read in German, which... ... seemingly mirrors everything I said.

"Beta" set for October.

[Gelston]

The Beta will be the actual release. Progress carries over and all that.

[Taernath]

Progress carries over and all that.

So the guys who preordered will be running around in power armor with nuclear launch codes while everyone else is trying to duct tape together a pipe rifle? ROFL this fucking game, man

[Astray]

That's gonna be fucked.
