Crossplatform friends not showing up online
This happened whenever we would try to play Apex and now it's happening in Battlefield 2042. To be honest, crossplay is the main reason I would want to buy the game since my brother and cousin both p...

@jimbojangles27 -Also, to add, none of us live together or are using the same internet.
-None of our EA accounts are sharing an email address.
-My Xbox account is not a child account.
-Crossplay is enabled on my xbox network settings.
-Crossplay is enabled in-game for all 3 of us.
-We tried removing each other as friends on our EA account and refriending each other.
I'm sure we have tried and checked more but I'm blanking. Please help.

- @jimbojangles27 You can try to join the same Portal match and look at the played with list. Re-add via the list and see if invitations go through. The only other thing is verify your Xblive is still linked to your Origin account online. Otherwise that's all I know to get this to work. I have 2 friends it isn't working with on Xbox (due to not linking Xblive to Origin) and 1 on Xbox it is working (has linked Xblive to Origin). All of them are on Series X consoles too. If I immediately try the trial on my Series S it just works.
@radiant_kai So my brother and I got on the other day and tried that for about 2 hours but whenever i was able to search an ID he would not be able to find it and vice versa. finally we found someone that we could both search but then my brother could join the server but i could not. that got me wondering if it is a server issue, but that wouldn't really explain not being able to search for each other using our EA ID's. how is this not being addressed by EA? i'm not buying their game if I can't crossplay and i know i'm just one small fish in a humongous pond but hopefully there are plenty more people like me not willing to buy such a broken product.
- @jimbojangles87 I've try to add my friends from the EA app on my Pc, where we should see everybody, but i even there i can't find any of them.. Surely a major Issue, EA are good at this bs.
i have the same problem but im on pc (steam) and my friends are on ps4.
@juandeagmeisterUnfortunately your issue isn't the same. The PS4 and Xbox One version is NOT the same versions as Xbox Series, PS5, and PC. The Xbox One and PS4 versions are not compatible with the PC version. This is known and been stated since before launch. Last gen 64 player maps and current gen 128 player maps.
You might be able to add friends when this situation is fixed but you won't be able to join each other's games still since they are different versions of the maps.
Could someone verify the above, please? My friend can find and invite me from PC to PS4, just I am not receiving anything. >Battlefield 2042
Check what version of battlefield you are using, make sure you have the ps5 version if u r gonna play with pc or xbox x
