Why is there no Console Only Cross-Play?
We should get console crossplay only so me and my friend can play together without being killed every 2 seconds by some xtreme fast pcplayer.
they have unfair advantages over console players… ...

Console players have an unfair disadvantage when facing PC players in crossplay lobbies.
This is very annoing and a turn off from Battlefield 2042. I have already a couple of friends who stopped playing from how frustrating this is. Controllers cannot compete with mouse and keyboard. The only solution for console players is to disable crossplay. However, if one does this, its nearly impossible to find a match with only their specific console players. When trying to start a match, it says "waiting for players to join," but the game never starts.
To fix this, DICE needs to limit PC players to only controllers, excluding mouse and keyboard. The other solution is to exclude PC players from crossplay with console players. Let only Xbox Series X players and PS5 players duke it out.
DICE.... This needs a fix!
I found a total of 4 conquest and 0 breakthrough matches in the 7 hours of the trial I played last night and today while crossplay was disabled on Xbox Series X. 3 of those conquests were on the same map since you get booted to the main menu after each game. All of them had about 25% bots.
Literally sat at the screen that says "Waiting for players to join" longer than I actually played the game.
They need to let Xbox disable crossplay in-game like PS5 and PC can, otherwise this problem will never go away.
- @Velcro_Snickers is that all console players are playing with PC for not being able to play with crossplay off. As is my case and that of thousands for the error 2: 2600J
- Console players should have option to choose crossplay with consoles only or consoles+PC
While you go back to the main menu, you are still in matchmaking for the next round. Take a look at the bottom where the countdown is ticking away. Just hold steady and you will end up in the next map in the rotation.
