Me and my friend are trying to play apex but we cant play beacuse i cant party her bc she is offline. But on her screen she is online. Im offline for her and she is offline for me. We can both play the game but not with eachother. How do we fix this.

Hey @KC_Smurfette@gawdofstuff

 

Are you both playing on PC? If so, you are most likely on a beta version of the Origin client. There was a recent update that will temporarily prevent beta users from seeing non-beta users on their friends list in Origin. For more details check out this thread on the Origin board: 

https://answers.ea.com/t5/Origin-Client-Web-Technical/Origin-Client-Update-to-Chat-and-VoIP-Sunset/m...

 

After the 30th you should be able to see your friends again if they're using a non-beta Origin client. In the meantime should be able to get around this by opting out of beta participation in the Origin client. 

 

Thanks!

Hey @hidingapples2

 

Are either you or your friend using a beta version of the client?

Hey! I was having the same issue but was able to make it work by going offline in Origin and then re-connecting to Online. Hope this works for you!

Hey @dandyperson1


Is it this specific friend you're not seeing online, or is it everyone on your friends list?
