Summarize your bug Go into your Soldier's "General / Options - Other" section, where you can select to opt in or out of CrossPlay by choosing OFF or ON. Here it appears as being ON by default. But when going to the toggle switch, the option is actually disabled to be toggled as you want. So it is not possible to choose to select OFF for CrossPlay. It is forced ON permanently.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Follow the steps as described above, on how to get to that plave in the menu where you change your preference for CrossPlay ON/OFF: Go into your Soldier's "General / Options - Other" section, where you can select to opt in or out of CrossPlay by choosing OFF or ON. Here it appears as being ON by default. But when going to the toggle switch, the option is actually disabled to be toggled as you want. So it is not possible to choose to select OFF for CrossPlay. It is forced ON permanently.
What happens when the bug occurs? You do not have the option to put CrossPlay to OFF as we wanted it to be. We are forced to be in CrossPlay by default, no matter if we want to or not.
What should be happening instead? We should have the toogle switch working instead, so we can set our preference to CrossPlay = OFF.
Screenshot of the disabled CrossPlay toggle switch in your Soldier's "General / Options - Other" section:
And yes, we are aware of the pre-requisite conditions for this toggle function to be available. But despite adhering to all the conditions, then the option to set CrossPlay to OFF is still not possible...
Thank you to get this bug fixed ASAP. 🙏
Was hesitating to pre-purchase and this problem stops me from paying as a xbox player.
There is no bug guys this is designed this way to stop xbox user not having it off.
As read the text for each version
PS5
Xbox series X:
See how it says:
'cross play can be changed in your xbox network account settings, under communication and multiplayer'
This is anti-consumer as this require a lot off effort for any gamer to turn it off. As it should be able to do so in the game setting like Playstation 4/5 can be.
Do your self a favoutr and either dont buy the xbox version or refund it if you can.
time to speak with our wallets now to show we wont put up with this at all.
