Hey everyone,
Origin and Steam will not be able to play online together. When crossplay is introduced later in development, then all platforms can play together in supported crossplay modes (Social Play and Two-Player Career modes)

This is a joke right? YOU CANNOT BE SERIOUS RIGHT NOW.
When is crossplay coming? wtf is this

I was able to get a refund for my EA Play Pro yearly membership due to this being false advertisement.
Had to take some time in a chat with EA support but I got my money back within minutes and now bought the game on Steam.
One issue left now: Steam isn't released yet :D
- 3 years ago@MonsieurJohnny420 Hi, what did you say to support to get you a refund? I also bought the game on Origin...

Hi all, so I tried to have a chat with these scammers here and ask for a refund of my EA play pro sub, which was basically bought just to get this game. Of course they refused, to my surprise :D
The reason - I played Grid Champions for 4 hours lol.
Here's the full conversation with support. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/11p9b3NHcOJeWR4RrqSrnv8iwuFubZ4Pi?usp=sharing
So to sum it up:
1. You scammed us by baiting us to your platform
2. You then did not inform us about the lack of "crossplay' if we can even call it that, since it's the first time in my life that I see a PC to PC connection being called crossplay, you cheaters.
3. You then informed us about that via a damn comment on your forum. And I repeat, you informed us all, 3 hours after the release of the game, that we cannot play on origin and steam together. After all that promotion, a bloody F1 YT channel marketing and many places, all around the world where you could preorder the game both physically and virtually, you decide to use a FORUM POST REPLY to inform us about it, you shameless scammers.
4. And of course, for dessert. You refuse to accept even a partial refund of the service you used to advertise this game on, as of being the best deal possible. You shameless, rude, scammers.
5. AND HOW COULD I FORGET!? We can't even test the lack of crossplay ourselves, because the game is not even launching on either platform, of course it isn't!
There's not much more I can say to you, because you won't even understand how freaking sad this is. You singlehandedly killed THE WHOLE PC community of this game, dividing us between both platforms. We are one of the smallest gaming community ever, by no means. We are sim-drivers, that race each other for years, even decades in some cases, purchasing this game every goddamn year.
I can't come up with the description of anger and hate that I feel towards you, so I will use Michael Scott's quote from The Office.
"Why are you the way that you are? Honestly, every time I try to do something fun or exciting, you make it not that way. I hate so much about the things that you choose to be."
I don't think there' anything you can do to make it right, treat me as the voice of us all, because I can personally ensure you, we all feel just that, doesn't matter if we are league owners like me, drivers, like all my online friends, some even being the best of them. You shameless, rude, blatant scammers.- 3 years ago@n0thappy Guess I was just lucky not to hit any "play" button then, since I got my refund. But anyways it's just awful deviding PC into 2 plattforms without any announcement before the release.
- 3 years ago@n0thappy Great post and I agree with all of it. For point 2, I reckon they got the idea from Epic Games who have been doing this recently, preventing Steam and Epic Games Store players from playing with each on some games and then recently announcing their 'PC crossplay tools' to enable crossplay between Steam and EGS on these games, literally attempting to claim praise for a problem they created. Sorry for my slightly unrelated rant but no crossplay is stupid and no crossplay BETWEEN PC SERVICES is beyond idiotic. Hopefully EA fixes this asap (they won't).
