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)

aren't you ashamed of yourself?? you made people buy the game on two different platforms, without warning anyone of the possibility of not being able to play together. now i am forced to have a disgusting ea play for nothing since my friends are on steam… and guess what? EVEN THE ANNUAL PASS CANNOT BE CANCELED .... YOU SU@@.
ea su@@!
They are a joke…. And a disgusting one!
write me in pvt i will tell you my news 😉
Why don't you give to Steam players the copy of F1 22 on Origin or vice versa?
100 Euros on the EA Play Pro because I wanted to play both F1 and Fifa and now I must play F1 22 in singleplayer? Then give us half of the value of F1 22 back (we can just play Singleplayer) 🙂
What is your suggestion for now origin or steam version ?
Let's be honest here for a second... We all bought the game on one platform. It's called PC... We just used different storefronts, so it shouldn't matter where the game was bought as we are all on the one and same platform. Crossplay is between platforms and not storefronts. We have every right to feel disappointed and angry, as there was no information about inability to play together on the same platform.
How can anyone think that it is acceptable to split your player base like that?
Who made that decision?
What is being done about this abysmal situation?
Any response from EA staff or do we have to just sit quiet and be happy that we can play the game (when it works)?
Of course Steam. Only people on Origin are either EA Play users (most of which aren't really serious F1 players) or cheapskates who bought keys through resellers (since steam keys are no longer distributed). Everyone else is play on Steam. And for those unaware, the Steam version has no Origin client, it's directly tied to Steam, which probably explains the Steam/Origin discrepancy in multiplayer (EA account is just to activate the game).
Steam and Origin aren't just "storefronts' where you buy games, there is also the whole network services aspect, including multiplayer. And take my comment however you like, "belittling" if you want, but it's certainly the truth.
@TheMalWareTM how come we don't see that being a problem in fifa or... I don't know, any other game in the world?
