If I buy F1 2022 on Steam, can I play with my friend who bought it on Origin ?
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)

Get excited (....on second thoughts....)
Facebook (apologies, wrong post was inserted, fixed now)
CDKeys looking to dump the Origin Keys now whilst Crossplay is a promise (....of sorts....)
Great we have crossplay ....not!! First Ea advertise with crossplay, then we have no crossplay and we get aswers from EA that the will fix that end off the year. So i think i not gonna wait so long on dead EA servers while my friends all on Steam. And now out noting we get crossplay ....... i don like that all because i buy the game again, at the Steam server and a week later .....crossplay.
Im getting a little sick with the EA company .......first with bf2042 80,- euro, .after 8 months they fix the game. And now the game is fixt .............all players run away. So i throw 80 euro + 70 euro from f1 22 out off the window.
EA thanks a lot ......... do you think you have a change to sell games in the future to persons who have the same problem as me.

I'm pretty sure you misinterpreted something you read there. I've certainly never seen anything from EA/Codemasters that said this.
I just played 3 games in Crossplay .........PC ,PS and Xbox!
Small problems but nothing major yet.

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.

The footage I saw of yesterday's beta just had a single symbol to denote PC players. I'd therefore taken this to be players on both Steam and Origin?
Let's put this the other way - have you seen anything to suggest that Steam and Origin players can't play together via the new crossplay functionality? We'd previously been told here that it would be possible.

Are your sure? I was watching a stream, and there were two different logos displayed other than PS. One user confirmed the logo that looked like a PC with controller was actually xbox & PlayStation didnt want to show xbox logo on their platform. The other PC looking logo was somebody on steam. But nobody from origin in that lobby. Could be just that less players on origin.
