Crossplay not possible

so i tried the last 2 days to play with my friend online. it seems impossible because we are not registrated as friends ingame but on the xbox account. this is a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ joke in 2025. also the pricing on ps5 is ridicolous for a 3 years old game. thanks microf...

You'll both need to add each other on your Microsoft / Xbox accounts in order to crossplay, Then one of you needs to invite the other into a convoy.

Regarding pricing, It may be a 3 year old title for us here on PC, But it is a new release to the PS5 so the pricing is on par with what I'd expect a new title to the PS5 to cost.

thanks, but it should be possible in 2025 to just start the game and play with your friends. i won´t do the work for microsoft.

I appreciate your position, but when it comes to crossplay between different platforms, it isn't always that simple. Each platform has their own set of rules and requirements to allow their players to share a space with players on the other platforms.

i was playing racing games in the early 2000´s without any issues. now you need to have studied informatics to be able to play with friends. no bueno ;)
