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… ...

@Passdogs_dad I have the exact same experience. It's frustrating. There's a lot of post on this forum like this (asking for crossplay between consoles only) but DICE simply don't say a word.
@IM1sfiT__ Console only crossplay is the thing I'm hoping for most in this game so we have more full servers without having to play against PC users. DICE hinted at it when they were talking about the technical playtest but I don't know if its ever been confirmed.
To quote the article:
"Cross-play in Battlefield 2042 beyond the Technical Playtest
We are still building cross-play functionality, and the first opportunity for us to test it with a wider, invite-only group will be within the Technical Playtest. Right now, we’d like to give you an understanding of what we’re looking to achieve as final functionality beyond the Technical Playtest, so here is an overview of what you can expect that to look like:
- PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation®5 system (PC and console can opt-out from playing together)"
Take from that what you will, but I take it as being able to have the option of having crossplay between consoles only. If anyone has any recent information on this topic from DICE that I have missed please share.
I'm no dev, but it may be simpler to add input based servers, since COD has already done this. Simple is probably a stretch though, I doubt this is a quick fix to the game. PUBG has crossplay between Xbox and PS only as well. I think that input based servers would be best while adding K+M support for consoles. That would make everyone happy and solve two of the most talked about topics on this forum.
