Option to invite a friend without overlay!?

I don't use origin or EA app in-game overlay. Sometimes it makes problems with game's performance.

In Origin there was an option to invite a friend, without overlay -> minimize game, open Origin window, right click on a friend opens a menu and there's an invite option, also a join game option.

Just got a mandatory switch to EA app. Where's the right click menu on friends in the friends list!?

Thank god he's still able to use origin, so he can join from this exact menu.

It's been years and this is a basic feature, which you already had with Origin.

Where is the right click menu on friends - for invite game, join game, etc!!!?

  • The launch of EA Desktop has been so frustrating.  

    The ability to play games, and sometimes play them with friends is the only thing I want out of it.  I have my overlay turned on, but it doesn't work.  The end result is the same - you can't invite friends if the overlay is busted. There is no option to invite a friend to join you from the friends list. Your only option is to launch the same game they are playing... you just can't play with them.

  • Wanted to play Battlefront 2 with a friend, never had an issue with inviting. Now we both have to use that garbage of an EA launcher, his Battlefront is straight up unplayable with the overlay enabled because of a bug, and I cant invite him without the overlay. So basically I cant play the game with him anymore. Now whats the point of a launcher if you cant even invite someone over it?? EA has to be the most incompetent gaming studio there is. Its so unimaginably frustrating seeing EA screwing up everything they touch.
