Co-op with epic games

[zoom]

If I own the game on steam am I able to do a co-op campaign with friends that own the game on epic?
What about with mods?

[Bovril Brigadier]

Yes.

Vanilla: Yes
With mods: Yes, BUT
All the mods must be synced. Same mods, same versions. Preferably the same load order even. The best way to do this is with a mod loader, the most popular being MW5 LOM. That way you can just export everything as a text file to pass around.

Newer better mod loader now, MW5MO.

Quoting for visibility, and because the more I learn about MW5 LOM... yeah, people should use MW5MO instead.

I've gone through an entire coop campaign with story DLCs. One person is on Epic. Not a single crash amongst us. Game worked a charm.

Very light mod load, mind you: simple zoom, cutscene remover, helicopter spawn reducer. Nothing more.

is Epic+Steam co-op dependent on the Steam user importing their friends list into Epic?

If so, do both users need to do it?
