Cross-platform error play

marco almenta · Apr 30, 2014

The following error happens when playing on win8-phone and win8-pc:

1. place some nonsense word on your phone but do not commit, instead leave it placed and scored

2. on your pc, place a valid word and commit

3. on your phone, close alphajax without removing the invalid word

4. restart alphajax on your phone and both words are placed and your rack is missing some letters from the nonsense word

5. you can continue playing on your pc for goodness sake

It sounds like some sync problem

cheerioh

Fortnite Cross platform

When I go to play Fortnite cross platform on Xbox it brings up an error message that I cannot join the cross platform party. When I go into settings in Fortnite to change the option to allow cross platform parties, it does not appear. I am able to play
cross platform parties when on a computer. From what I have seen on the internet, the Xbox account has to be an adult account, but I cannot figure out how to promote a child account to an adult account.

cross platform/servers?

Gears did not have cross platform play. Shadowrun was cross-platform.

Hi Marco,

Thanks for sending this info, I'll pass it over to the dev and test teams and ask them to take a closer look.

true pc gamers can cheat pretty easy on the online circuit.

Cross platform play isn't exactly unfair. There are assists on console/controller that the keyboard and mouse players don't receive (like aim assist) which helps make it easier to aim and shoot.

When you have console gamers playing against PC gamers, you'll always have some sort of unfair advantage in favor of the PC gamers. Whether it's keyboard/mouse or just that their hardware is better and can run the games better. I'm looking forward to cross
platform with Xbox users playing against PlayStation. I know initially Sony was against it, but from what I've read they seem to be warming up to the idea more.
