An appeal to Bungie: Please allow cross-platform account sync

I am a PC / PS4 player. I really don't like playing FPS games on a controller. If we can't have cross-platform play, can we at least create one account and have our Guardians / progress / game state available on both the consoles and PC? I want to play this game on PC so badly, but I also would like to play with my friends (all console players). Please, Bungie. Reply/upvote if you agree, please!

    • Should definitely be Xbox Anywhere. But that might outweigh the pros of PS exclusives so not sure if they'd allow it.

    • I really want cross platform account sync to. I will be playing on both PC and Xbox and having cross platform accounts would be amazing. It is super easy to do Xbox1 to PC. Thanks to Sony paying for exclusives, having cross platform accounts sadly will likely never happen. You can thank Sony and the stupid exclusives for that.

      This probably won't happen because of either MS or Sony. Is it possible? Yes. I play XIV on my PS4, and it's crossplay with PC players (due to it not being hosted on PSN servers). My toon is also playable if buy the PC version as well (which is what you're asking for, not crossplay like everybody seems to think). My point is, the technology is there, obviously. But I highly doubt MS or Sony will allow it.

    • No. It makes no since for either Microsoft or Sony to basically work together. If that happens games will become complete garbage because there isn't any competition. Look what happen to madden since 2k and NCAA aren't made anymore.

    • I could see this pretty easily happening Xbox - PC, but not Xbox - PS or PC - PS. Bungie has said in the past that it would be easy on their end to do, but it wasn't up to them. I personally think this would be a good balance. Let PS4 have the exclusives and let Xbox - PC share accounts and/or cross play (although I think PC-Console crossplay in an FPS is not something I'd enjoy being a part of). This prevents the issues of PC getting PS4 exclusives, but also gives the Xbox guys some sort of bauble for their trouble.

      • Microsoft has the Play Anywhere system and if they put that in Destiny 2 its possible for xbox and pc to cross play and use the same account.

          • Since everything you do in destiny goes away in destiny 2, what's the big deal? Everyone is starting over so just get the next one on the platform you want.

              Yes, thinking of switching to PS4. I just want to migrate my destiny history to PS4 from Xbox.

                I too was hoping for this. Honestly I could see Microsoft doing this.

                • Cross platform sync? I doubt it. You will probably have small window of opportunity To migrate an account from time to time for a fee.

                  Gears 4 allows cross-platform interaction between pc and xbox one while maintaining your profile on both, so if there were to be cross-platform play and profile access for destiny 2, that'd be the most likely form it would take. Would actually be curious to see how that plays out, cross-platform accessibility and interaction vs time gated exclusives.

                • Seeing as that would fall under Microsoft and Sony needing to stop their feuds. Which won't happen.

                • I mainly play on Xbox but I would give destiny a try on my PS4 if I can link my account. Because I don't feel like starting over just to play on another platform.

                • Agreed. I have ps4 xbone and pc. And i am willing to buy copies for 2 if not all 3. As I have friends on all systems and would like to play destiny with all. I don't understand why they can't since you can link your account to all platforms.

                    Won't work due to those wonderful PlayStation exclusives. Although I would love to see it.

                      I'm gonna be honest, the only way that would work is if you were willing to pay for it multiple times to use the game client on separate consoles/pc and if they put in a monthly subscription fee. The issue isn't so much the companies wouldn't allow it, that kinda of server maintenance etc is ridiculously complicated. If they do that, I will find you =p
