I remember when the game first came out and the general idea behind not initially having cross-platform parties was to prevent users from making yet another account for something, which I get and respect. One thing I see in a few games that implements doing just that very well is a invite code system. Here's attached a screenshot of how it looks. User gives it to their friend, they are able to party up with the code. No accounts needed. Simple.

Well thats not really the case in this part. The devs probably having a hard time getting it to work correctly. As it is same platform parties are not working correctly for a lot of players. The dev company is pretty small and trying to fix other issues with this broken game.

Naw, you just fell for the lie. They used false advertising to promote the game. When they got called out for it they pretended "crossplay" never meant "crossplatform parties" (despite the definition of the term).

This feature doesnt work yet because the devs are failing to make it so. Truely sad that they dont understand how bad this is for the player base.
