So “Preferred Crossplay” was a lie?

Question

Quoting Alexia Christofi”Eyy not quite, it's crossplay on or off - but if crossplay is on we treat it as console preferred crossplay, so we'll try and matchmake you with others playing on console before falling back to full crossplay if we can't find you a match with only/mostly console players.”This from my experience is a complete lie and the matchmaking has been the exact same matchmaking that 2042 has for console players.Currently with crossplay on, on my PS5 the matchmaking system just throws in whoever it wants, it’s not “falling back” on anything and it’s not prioritising matchmaking console players together first.The majority of the time I’m being used as filler for PC majority servers.EA can we get clarification on this?Thanks.&nbsp;&nbsp;

As a PC player i would like the ability to only play with PC players, so to mirror your point, its felt in the opposite direction too

Yeah, it doesn't work whatsoever. And another lie a dev told in an interview, was that if you turn crossplay off when on console, it will fill lobbies with both xbox and PS5 players, but that doesn't work either. My platoon is half PS, half Xbox, and now we can't play together unless we want to endure PC players. Total false advertising.

I know right, regarding the “preferred crossplay” it was spoken about openly and it simply isn’t there… would love some clarification on this but I highly doubt we’ll get any, I’m hoping it just needs tweaking or something total disappointment once again.
