I know that accounts db is on Origin. It is the same for Valve/Steam but they use a straight forward logic: user receives a notification about an in-game invitation based on the platform acc db.
You don't receive a joinable link, all you get is a shortcut to play the game and after you open the game you can accept the invitation there.
*edit: I think I solved it
+1 this is happening for me too.
I would like to test further as I believe it to be a high priority issue because it affects origin in-game. ie. I can't make in-game purchases.
I run afterburner and RTSS to cap the frame rate. I think it might be RTSS? Confirmed closed RTSS and it still doesn't work (origin in-game). Now tried with RTSS and Afterburner off, doesn't work (origin in-game). Tried closing Geforce Experience, and Discord (Discord overlay was disabled anyways) AND ORIGIN IN-GAME NOW WORKS!
Now to try and figure out which it is...
Tried Discord, and origin in-game still works. AND I can still record via Shadowplay.
The culprit seems to be Geforce Experience, and closing it did not affect my ability to use shadowplay.
Now I just have to wait to test out invites being bugged and not-able-to-be-clicked
Solved? Can someone else confirm please?
