” He also hinted that with the PS4, the system will support free-to-play games.

That's all there is to it, but I see PS2 on the PS4 as a Christmas present, better make it cross platform boys.

Smart move allowing F2P on the PS4, not surprising seeing how popular it was on the PS3. Smedley's been a big supporter of F2P on the PS3.

It does lend more credit to PS2 being ported to PS4. Heh, but cross-platform? While I would love to kill me some gamepad users I don't see the game being cross-platform material:P

Re: PS4 to support FTP games... hmmm


We know for a long time that PS2 will be on the PS4. There is no news there. Smed hinted at it plenty of times in the past.


No words on the when and how yet tho. I dont expect cross system play (PC with PS4) for obvious aim related reasons. I do hope however that the PS4 release isnt eating away devtime from our folks, but rather that a seperate team is fixing up the game for Console use, and that PS4 players play the exact same game (feature wise), just that they get patches a bit delayed due to the extra team optimizing the engine and UI elements for the console players.


If SOE starts making the PC game console friendly then im out, just as all the other PC players. :>

Basti, If you're indeed correct about PS2 coming to the PS4 then there is one thing I hope we will never suffer from, the patch certification process. Hopefully seeing as SOE is of course owned by Sony we won't have to deal with it. I would also be concerned about dev time and effort being diverted from the PC version to a console version.

They cant cross platform it though, PC players would kill the console players, using the key board and mouse would give us the advantage. They did an actual study on this, and its a proven fact that PC players would have the advantage. It was in a blog written by Rahul Sood, tested and true.

If they do make a PS2 for the PS4 they would have there own server I believe.
