Witcher 3

[emjay]

Don't remind me ... as I said I'm new to all this; I bought the thing and thought the PlayStation network was just so I could buy stuff; I didn't know it was gonna be my unchangeable handle forever after in every game, so I'm lumbered with that ... they should be more clear about these things and not assume that everybody knows what everything is in this modern world /rant

hehe, so cute.

Lol... yeah, I just thought 'what do they need a username for... and for that matter millions of privacy settings?... but now I understand it... but too late ' but... it is what it is hrug:

Right... well friend request sent and accepted so... thanks, friend

I'm not sure about the Plus account at all; say I want to play a two player game with my sister but she lives cross country... do I need a plus account to do that? And does it also just set you up with random players any time you need them (ie similar to how fortnite works) for any and every game that has multiplayer options... it sounds pretty cool I have to say. For instance the game that I've got - Trackmania - looks very band in single player mode... so much so that I'd feel I'd wasted money on it if that's all there is to it, so it seems highly reliant on multiplayer features... so I don't know.

The Plus account is really only needed for disk games (games you physically buy from the store) that have the multiplayer option.

For your sister to play, what you're asking is not how multiplayer works.

So long as your sister has the PS console and the Fortnite game downloaded on there, you can both play: nothing extra needed.

Never heard of Trackmania.

Okay... well I guess I'll just have to see in practice what I can or can't do multiplayer wise without Plus, now that I have a friend on there (you)... ie it might not have offered me any options because I didn't have any friends on there until you.

All my games are bought from the PlayStation store... ie digital (that's the other thing I'm liking about this; that I can use the PS4 like a Kindle for games and never bother with hard copies any more)... does that make a difference? (since you said they need to be disc games).

Trackmania Turbo is in the PlayStation store under the category 'driving and racing' games.
