Hi,When I play Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville, there are a couple friends whom I have added from in the game who have never shown up on the friends list. There will be a '1' next to the friends tab when they are online but nothing in the actual list. I have tried unfriending a refriending them but they still never show up. And when they send me invites the game says I can't join because the user is not found, but it seems like they can join me. If there's anything that can be done about this I would really appreciate help.Thanks!

I am having this exact problem as well! The difference for me is we are on the same wifi in the same room. What the heck… months and no answers EA? Please fix this, it servely effects gameplay.

@souplu Would it be possible to get a screenshot of how it looks?

Hi, thanks for getting back to me! Below is a picture taken when one of my friends is playing bfn. As you can see, there is a little "1" next to the friends tab, but the actual friend that is playing does not show up at all on the friends list.

@souplu Thanks for this! To confirm which platform are you on?

@souplu I'm having the same issue. Did they ever get back with you?

@MegaMom2 They have not gotten back to me since I last clarified that I was on Nintendo Switch, but their replies were always a few days after mine so hopefully they will soon.

Hi @souplu @MegaMom2

I just wanted to update this thread we have shared this with the team. If we get any further updates I can post them here.

Thanks!

Did you ever hear anything back? It is still an issue, and I have not found any real fixes. My issue is the exact same as the original poster's and it would be nice to not have to manipulate groups around until we find someone all of us can join.

They told me that they would share this issue with the team and tell me if they had an updates on it, but it sounds like they don't have a solution at this point.
