Will there be cross play between the ps3 and PC atleast?

[Pestilence]

While this is possible and Trion has shown that is possible, cross platform play is a definite no at launch. Each platform will be separated into their own set of the 'world'.

As for the future who knows, but since it was definitely a no for Sony and MS as far as cross platform play I would doubt it.

This is true, it has already been stated that although they 'could' have done this it will not be a possibility at launch.

short answer no, long term answer... NO

PC players will have a huge advantage with keyboard and mouse than a controller. its a FACT that they will be more precise and will decimate console players. unless one required a controller to play on PC I see no way of really getting past this part.

Here we go again with the "PC > CONSOLE HURR DURR"

We get it. We don't care. Shut up about it.

I wish ps3 version of Defiance would have keyboard and mouse support but I feel its unlikely at best.

I wish consoles supported keyboard and mouse for games such as this. But that's why the dial was designed. The dial y'all, the dial.

Q: If you played Defiance on the Xbox, can you switch over to PC or PS3 and still have your Stats, Characters, Weapons etc.?

A: No, we will not support cross platform accounts or play. Your character, progression and stats will only be available for the platform your playing on.

The issue is that even if the publishers/developers want to implement cross play, the first parties (ie Sony/Microsoft) wont let it happen

I wonder why Sony won't let it happen with Defiance. They have done it before (Portal 2 comes to mind). They even wanted to do it with CS:GO, which was ditched soon before release if I remember correctly.

Oh this again. Fact? No. There are plenty people who can own a KB/M user with a controller. And even if they have a "huge advantage", why does it matter so much? Yeah, you might get some easier kills in PVP, that's all. And you could always get a KB/M for PS3, if it's supported by the game of course. If not, there are specially made KB/M for consoles that will "translate" the controller buttons to the KB/M.

if there is to be any cross platform it would be Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Xbox 360.
