Re: Cant invite friends to play Squadrons
Though I was unable to add EA account names and getting an "Invite Failed" message, Steam account names that I added would show up in-game after a restart. However, I could not invite a Steam player from inside the game. After I had restarted and he showed up on my list inside Squadrons, I sent a team invite and received this error ID:
This was someone on Steam whose account I'd added via Steam. The only way to get our team of three together in a squad was to cancel the lobby with my Xbox squadmate, whom I'd added through Origin, and accept an out-of-game Steam invite to join the game of my Steam friend (I was luckily on Steam as well so we had the platform in common if nothing else) and then with him as group leader I was able to invite the Xbox squadmate in-game. It was difficult to maneuver these obstacles, but we did make it with a haphazard, out-of-game approach. I'd just request that there be some way to get friends who know their IDs to be in the same lobby regardless of who is doing the invite and from what platform. If I weren't facilitating via Steam, my teammates could never have played with each other even though we already knew each other. Thanks for keeping an eye on this.
