Cross progression

★★★ Novice

It has been said that this will never be a thing however we are now coming to an update with cross-play!

I have an account that is level 300 with a lot of skins on xbox and I transferred over to pc fairly recently and I want to buy a pack that is currently on sale until august 18th (the same day as the update)

I was wondering if cross progression will become a feature so I know if I should buy it on my xbox acc that has all the skins or just restart from scratch...

It's not going to happen bud. It took them so long to even implement cross play because it was, "a ginormous amount of work." So if they DO release an official announcement (which is again about as likely as snow in Texas) it's going to be so far off in the future you might not even be playing.

Also, none of us here on the boards work for Respawn. Trying to reason with us for cross progression is like asking a locked door to open. There's LITERALLY nothing we can do.

for example with epic games you put in your same email/ password and you are set, would be such a missed opportunity if they don't include this

So I've noticed that some level of cross progression already exists. 

 

I'm a PS4 main, but I much prefer playing on PC. I started playing on console, spent my money on console, then swapped to PC to play with some other mates.

 

Now clubs is a thing and I can't join the same club on PC and PS4 because "My EA Account is already in the club on another platform." Okay, fair enough, makes no sense to me but whatever.

 

Then we start queueing ranked, we're all low level on PC, like I'm level 34, my KDR is like 0.8 'cause I'm not a big PC FPS guy, mainly play MOBA's and MMORPG's on PC but you know, broadening my horizons. My mates who play also rarely play this game, similar skill levels I dare say.

 

Bronze lobbies, coming across Horizon players with 1.2k kills, 4k damage badges and 20 bomb badges, Season 6 pred wraiths and stuff. So, to me, that says it's using the MMR of my EA Account from console, where I'm a plat/diamond level player, right? 

 

So it's using the data from there already, why can't I access my skins and other badges and stuff on there? 

 

TL;DR because of the status of my EA Account on console, I basically can't use certain aspects of the game on PC unless I make a brand new EA account for this platform alone. It's either cross progression, or it isn't. To me, this seems like it is. Seems sus.

 

Unless I'm totally wrong and somebody can correct me in which case I'll be more than happy to listen/change my mind.

 

Quick edit: Also, I've noticed the new map on PS4 (PS4 Pro) chugs in certain areas, my gameplay experience is so much better and much smoother on PC, hence wanting to swap full time.
