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… ...

@cornybbq2 If my observation is correct, the current matchmaking has serious issues. It looks like EA uses distinct pools of parties in matchmaking.
- Crossplay enabled (PC, Current Gen PlayStation and XBox)
- Crossplay enabled (lastgen PlayStation and XBox)
- PC only
- PS5 only
- XBox X|S only
- PS4 only
- XBox One only (not sure if that is enabled)
I guess the first 2 pools are the casuals and the "I don't care I just want to play" players.
I could imagine, that the homogene Crossplay parties could be used to fill up the platform only lobbies, but I don't think that's happening.
- @cornybbq2 That was guess work. Since the last gen consoles only support 64 player modes, I think their crossplay excludes pc players
@cornybbq2old gen is consoles only crossplay by default (PS4 +X1), so there's no real need for a xplay off option for those. PC is only playing with new gen consoles.
My only ask from the Devs at this point are two things, one we need a direct server browser for every mode with the ability to quick play if wanted and two for the amount of human players required to start a match be dropped drastically (currently it requires 64 human players for a regular breakthrough/conquest match to start, them adding bots was to combat this issue but they are too afraid of "farming" to do this) this way we aren't being left hanging on the waiting for players to join screen.
