Sounds like you have no servers available then, that serve the Xbox X world...

So its not like crossplay is forced ON.

Root cause problem is that you have no servers available to avoid it.

Wrong as I can play the game when its on, go look up how you turn it off then make a comment otherwise u looked stupid mate.

@Sci0nEasy on there.

I am sure you are frustrated, however @CyberDyme is trying to help by first understanding what your issue is.

Have you reported the issue as a bug? We are talking it out still.

Please also note this constraint, if you want to toggle your CrossPlay setting:

So you cannot change the setting either way if you are in a game party setting or if you have started the search for server to join a game or if you have already joined a server to play on.

So make sure to change this setting to what you want it to be, before you connect with any of your gamer friends or browse for servers to join.

It will otherwise show up as 'disabled' as shown on your own screenshot there.

It is simple, you have to play with crossplay on, you can not just flip it off in the games settings which is anticonsumer.

So if i turn it off as it says in setting on the console you will not find a game as no one will turn it off this way = anticonsumer.

I ll make it easy for you, on Playstion 5 this is easy to turn on an off. so its simple the games playuer base on xbox is forced to play agasint hackers.

@CyberDymeYeah... my thoughts as well... but shouldn't there be some available? Even if they are just bot-filled?

Sounds like a problem to me...

That is actually the catch-22 problem that EA have not provided any answer to so far.  Because the servers disappear when there are no active human players remaining on the server.

And agreed @carsono311 , it is obviously a technical problem that needs fixing from EA's side, as servers should be available for everybody to play on, including players choosing to disable crossplay.  👍

Same for me. First time in I joined a game instantly. Then realised crossplay was on so came out and switched it off in xbox settings. 

Since then, as others have said, it just sits at the loading screen saying "waiting for players".

So not a good start.

Same here. Just bought it for xbox to get rid of pc cheaters. In Beta, i was alle to disable crossplay. Now this.... so sad. 

People need to keep pushing this post or nothing will change please people let ea know we as console players really don't want forced crossplay with pc. Playstation and xbox 100% would be amazing EA WE DONT WANT TO PLAY WITH PC PLAYERS!!!!!!!!!!!

To my mind if I can't switch off cross play, I won't play it. Who on a console could enjoy playing a game where you've got a baked in disadvantage against half your opponents.

For anyone who thinks the same (most id guess), the game is effectively completely broken at launch.

@FatherDediv played 4 games in every game 80%-90% were pc players and I'm not joking. I was under the impression we could disable this in game I am honestly considering a refund dont understand why games are forcing crossplay on people console vs console would do me cant stand the fact I'm forced to play with players on pc.

Unless I dreamt it, in the beta you could switch off cross play - in game without having to go out to xbox settings. And it worked without issue.

So they didn't add keyboard and mouse support on console due to balancing worries but then locked every Xbox player in with PC players...

I got my refund this morning!

So no M&K support but, you have to play with pc users yes or yes, actually 80% of players are pc players.

Well played EA, as usual.

Given the history of the game (eg the shockingly bad bf4 launch), I wasn't expecting things to be perfect. But to have something as basic and rudimentary as this to be completely broken from the get go is utterly disappointing.

I'd taken the day off work, really looking forward to it. Now I'm like a kid on Xmas morning who finds out someone forgot to get the batteries for their new toy 😞 

Suppose I should go and do something productive with the day then. Was not my plan.

Well then thay better give us mouse and keybord support then even the odds with the PC crowed

I play on console because I don't want use mouse and keyboard.

Cross play only between consoles dice/ea

See I don't mind that but only if ur getting paired up with other pc players not console.

fix the cross_play on xbox!!!
we won't play with PC
wo need cross-play like apex_legends！！！！
