Re: How to play with my Xbox friend on my PC? Cant figure it out, Help!

Hi @the_Ki11aBEE Does your co-worker have crossplay enabled and have they checked that they're running the Series S/X version of the game?

  • He has the xbox series X and has crossplay enabled. But we cant seem to find a way to add each other in game.

    @the_Ki11aBEE But are they loading that version of the game or are the playing the Xbox One version? There are two versions on console, only one of which can crossplay with PC, so this is quite often the culprit.

    its a bit confusing but there is a seperate menue here is a step by step as to how it should work

    1. click on socials
    2. top left is a submenue called "invitations" go there
    3. now you are in a menue with a searchbar. insert friends Xbox ID there and press Enter
    4. you should be able to find him in that list
    5. leftclick on the nametag and add as friend
    6. your friend should have an invitation showing up in the same menue

    oh i did try that, and tried it aghain as u explained and it says no players matched the search criteria.

    Thats the part i dont get. I think on PC it searches for EA tag players, not   consoles. Man this is frustrating. Any other tips to try?

  • @ElliotLH he says he has crossplay enabled, so i assume he has the right version. Otherwise there wouldnt even be a crossplay option

    @the_Ki11aBEE Both versions have crossplay (the last gen one is PS4/Xbox), so that's not a good indicator unfortunately. The simplest way to check is whether the Xbox tile has "X/S" in the bottom left corner. If it does, then they're loading the right version.

    Edit: Here's a photo of my Xbox home screen so you can see how both versions look, in case it helps at all.

  • I was searching for fix for this same issue.

    @PORKOPCZ The most information I can find about that error message is that it may relate to privacy permissions on either the EA or Xbox account. I'm not sure if it'll help, but I suppose it couldn't hurt to check there.
