Re: Apex cant play with roomate

My husband and I can play with our roomate and he can play with us just fine. However when my husband and I try to play on our accounts. On our own xboxs, it boots one of us off each time. We can play other games together, we can both play apex at the SAME TIME but not together.... 

We thought the fight night update would fix it but we still havent been able to play together!

    Hi @Nepurta

    Are both your and your husband's Xbox accounts connected to the same EA Account?

  • No mine is under my email and ea account his is under a whole seperate account. They should not be connected in any way. 

  • A lot of the time we switch what xbox we play on since we live together. We noticed that if you sign in under someone else with apex open it will kick you out of the club but not the person who just logged in. So we've been avoiding doing that as well. (We are going to try and see if it had something to do with the club...)

    Him and our other roommate can play together and i can play with him too. But me and my husband cant play together.

    We have had our doubts about our internet but if lets them play just fine then i dont see a difference if it was me and him playing.

    Neither of us have each other blocked or any late fees nothing all of our stuff is up to date and seperate.

    @Nepurta 

    Thank you! I appreciate the details. 

    That's definitely strange. If the accounts are on different EA Accounts it could be a local network issue of some kind. In some cases I've seen issues like this happening because of an IP address conflict on the network. If possible, can you try setting a static IP address for both consoles to see if that helps at all? 

    The Port Forward website has instructions on how to set up a static IP address on Xbox One. Let me know how that goes once you've had the chance to give that a shot. Thanks!
