@Iron_Guard8I agree we need cross play because others don’t want to waste 400$ on a Xbox and PS4 in order to play with their friends that’s just crazy. Pls let there be crossplay.

@FlamingBro2445Or at least make the players able to move their game progress from PC to console. I have a PS4 but I won't start over with a fresh game account. I've already put so much work in my current one.

I don't think Cross-Play should happen in some ways people are talking about here.
With all that said, as one of the developers said in the last stream, it's a huge system that requires a lot of thoughts and considerations to implement well. The primary focus right now is bug-fixing and making sure this game is working on all platforms with no issues. And then comes the balance/Quality-of-Life changes.
And yes, this game needs Cross-Play because it's not free to play... And the number of players is significantly lower than, let's say, Fortnite...

* This is my own personal opinion to make it fair and square to all players. Not all players might agree with PC <-> Console PvP matchmaking. This happens in many gaming communities.
* Sorry if some of what I posted was mentioned elsewhere. But I just wanted to make it in clear points.

La mayoría de las personas tiene siempre esa idea errónea como tu, en un PVP te va a emparejar dependiendo tu dispositivo, ademas de que los juegos que ya tienen juego cruzado te dan la opción de desactivarlo si así lo deseas.
Por personas como tu las demás personas se hacen de ideas erróneas.

Maybe in the future cross play could be added, hopefully.

Gonna add my vote for cross-play. I bought the game on my Xbox One mainly for my son to play. I primarily game on PC and I'd like to be able to play with him.

Cross Play would undoubtedly be a delight, but there are some problems EA might face, too!
Pros
- Brings the entire PVZ community together, friends across different platforms can play with each other using EA/Origin IDs
- Updates will be easier to publish because the game files will be just one! EA won't have to spend hours updating each and every file for the different platforms.
Issues EA may face
- Players complaining due to PC advantage over console
- Sony/Microsoft not agreeing to cross play with each other (however the use of EA IDs could resolve this)
Every PVZ player would enjoy the feature of cross play, but we must be patient and remember EA might not get to add it!

Reflecting on what GammaX6 said, EA could definitely solve all the main issues with cross play
- Players can freely choose which platforms they play against
- An effective cybersecurity system. Monitored player reporting and also bots to detect corrupt code/files and exploits PC players can use. (Fortnite use this system and exploiters are a 1 in a trillion sight)
- Use of EA IDs for cross play
Let's just hope EA attempt these if cross play becomes a thing.
