So, as most of you probably already know: Even though Enlisted has cross play as a feature, there are no mechanics in place to facilitate cross play squads between PC and console. To get games together, both sides have to enter a queue simultaneously and hope that they’re given the same lobby by chance.
I strongly feel that this is an issue that the devs need to stop neglecting and finally address. Especially as of the last update, cross play multiplayer has gone from being an annoying inconvenience, to actually becoming almost impossible.
Over the last two days this weekend, myself and my friends on Xbox have tried and failed repeatedly to get lobbies together. Whereas before, we would generally get a lobby within the first three attempts, as of the last update, we’ve had two successful attempts out of perhaps two dozen. Notably, my queue times seem to have gotten longer, averaging between 40-60 seconds, whereas on their side, they average <10. And this is on Moscow, so it’s not due to a bunch of Xbox 1/PS4 players w/ crossplay disabled filling up lobbies. I don’t know what’s caused the sudden change, but the overall effect is that I can no longer play with my friends, and my enjoyment of the game has been reduced significantly.
Please implement the ability to create squads between PC and console players.
