@ragnarok013 Hope so. Because I don't want to play versus keyboards and mouses. With disabling that option game just classifying for refunding for me.

@Don_Mackos if PS5 can do it that tells me its a bug with Xbox right now that needs to be corrected. I've reported the bug so now we wait.

If this has to go through xbox certification that will be another week before fixed. Right in time for day 0. See us gold and ultimate edition buyers are suckers. Do the trial folks if on the fence. Cant stress that enough.

There are no keyboard and mouse players even in the game yet?

A good 12 hours before they can even play

Product: Battlefield 2042
Platform:Xbox Series X
Please specify your platform model. Microsoft Xbox Series X

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.

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.  🙏

@ragnarok013  Its not a bug... Sony mandate for games with xplay is there has to be an option for fully off, Apex, Warzone can turn it off in PS4 not on Xbox.

@CyberDyme  I don't think this well change look at Warzone, you can only refund if under 2 hrs played so bear that in mind.

Wow @1Hairy-Gorilla ,

If that is really Microsoft's stance on this, then expect to see a very large crowd of furious Xbox gamers, as we were promised all along by Electronic Arts that it would be optional, to be playing in CrossPlay or not !!  😨😡

Dice please fix!!!

YOu can not turn it off, without going into the consoles setting which then its not consumer friendly. It was told it would be able to turn it off. An when u do block it by settings on the console you can find no game.

Yet on Ps5 there is not issues like this.

@Sci0n Yo! How were you playing the game six hours before launching? Am I missing something? Xbox didn’t let me in until 10:00 Paris time
