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)

I'm pretty sure you misinterpreted something you read there. I've certainly never seen anything from EA/Codemasters that said this.

Lee Mather said in an interview that, owing to the fact that the team doing Crossplay were based in Ukraine, that the feature was on hold indefinitely. This was back in May, and is the closest I could find to anyone actually involved directly with the project saying anything remotely concrete about major delays. I think the bigger issue here is not necessarily the lack of cross platform interaction between PC and consoles, but rather the bafflingly idiotic lack of crossplay between Steam and Origin players on the SAME PLATFORM. Frankly, I think someone at EA was high when they made that game design choice.
Well even with crossplay Origin and Steam will never be able to league together. Kinda shame for same hardware.

Surely they will by using social lobbies, which is how the majority of leagues operate I believe?

This is what I've been trying to ascertain. Crossplay between Steam/XB/PS and Origin/XB/PS but still no Steam/Origin?
Yes, Leagues use Social Play Custom Lobbies because Leagues has never worked in a way that allows Leagues to operate with reserves.
