@Blind_Bleeder said in PSA: Don't switch platforms if you plan to link, and care about progress in older games.:
The simple solution is to always have the primary as your PS account. This way you can hop on older titles without a hassle. It may be too late for 22 content, but moving forward, don’t change primary accounts. It doesn’t matter which console you play on most. Keep the primary as your PS and the headache will go away.
That's not really a solution, it's just avoiding a design flaw. It's also what I suggested in the title since I doubt anyone at SDS thought to fix it this year. That doesn't change the fact that it is a problem which SDS should be able to fix if they understand that it is a problem, and they care to do so.
Think about all the quality of life changes that have been made over the years that never would have come about if players on this very forum hadn't brought them up. Being able to save multiple lineups, being able to complete missions offline (cue MLB 17 Griffey dashboard flashbacks), event lineups remaining between runs, BR mission players actually having a round so you can pick them, conquest simulation times being sped up, etc. Even some of the bigger additions like mini seasons and create a stadium were brought up on here in one form or another prior to being added to the game.
