Someonestolemeberrys Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Will this be possible to cross play between computer and android in the nearby future? I see many other games jumping on that and I used to hear multiplayer was impossible for this game, Now look where it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonymousKoala Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 First you would need DST to be on android. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GentlemanFridge Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Nome has said before that, even if android got DST, cross-platform would be a practical impossibility. I forgot why exactly, but I'm pretty sure it's a no-no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the reason was that if they wanted cross-platform stuff, they would need to have their own servers for everything, which they just dont have access to right now. Could be wrong about this.

Or am I completely off the mark @nome ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
