Hi welcome to the forum, what exactly do youean by first edition of fs17? They could play friends on the same platform but couldn't play with each other, so PS4 - PS4 and Xbox one - Xbox one but not PS4 - Xbox one

I assume you mean by "first edition of FS17" just the normal FS17 version and not the Platinum Edition. This is possible, however they won't be able to use the additional content from the Platinum Edition (the Estanica Lapacho map and the new vehicles), unless their friends buy the Platinum Addon DLC (https://store.playstation.com/en-gb/pro ... ATINUMDLC0). If they have the Seasons Pass, they can even download it for free.

But note that, as Guil already told, playing with the XboxOne with a friend on PS4 and vice-versa is not possible.

Thanks all appreciate the replies I’m aware of not being able to play ps to Xbox is was just each one has different consoles so they want to play with there friends with the same platform. So I can keep the platinum edition thanks very much 😀👍

And if they dont want to use the platinum, they can just un-tick the box for platinum when loading the game
