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...

@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.
Why is it that every game nowadays is broken on release? I've poured through these forums and reddit looking for a fix for this problem but whenever EA answers they post the link to the same page, mark it solved and move on. Then theres always the replys to their comment saying it didn't solve it at all but of course EA never responds back. How can they expect people to pay for their unfinished product? Especially when it comes to Battlefield, where I'm sure a lot of people are like me and get their enjoyment from squadding up with their friends and playing different roles.
But inviting friends should be a basic foundation of any online shooter. When I search for them on the BF social page, their names don't even show up. I'll be sitting by my PC with EA Desktop open (or Origin...or neither...tried all 3 ways) where I can see from there that they are online playing Battlefield, but the social page on BF shows nothing. Then I can jump into apex and my cousin will too (him on PC and me still on Xbox series S) and we can see each other on there and join each other's game so how come it works there?
And what pisses me off most about the situation is that they won't address it. They just tell everyone crossplay works new gen or old gen and that was it
I legimately have an identical issue to you.
The comments here asking you to check the legacy devices, new devices are distracting from the issue. I'm running PC to Xbox Series X (my friend) and we cannot see each other. We're linked on EA play and Origin (both BF2042 and Apex issue). If I go back to my Series X - we can see each other. Same accounts, all linked, different platforms.
I cannot find a forum that knows how to fix this problem and it's been a substantial period since your post.
