I'm so sick of people inviting me while I'm playing.
Part of the problem is the way these invites are delivered; through Origin's terrible overlay, which invariably causes game focus loss, massive frame rate drops (especially when using free/gsync), and other issues.
Moreover, on multiple occasions either I, or one of my teammates, have been involuntarily pulled out of a game by these invites. (perhaps because of focus stealing combined with 'space bar' defaulting to 'accept' ?)
This is a Battle Royale; it is NEVER correct to abandon your game, and your squad, to join someone else's lobby.
On one hand you're discouraging abandonment by punishing those who do it, yet on the other you've got a malicious invite system that positively creates abandonment issues.
Inviting people who are actively playing in a game should be IMPOSSIBLE.
At the very least the DEFAULT behaviour should be to completely BLOCK invites.
This problem obviously gets progressively worse the larger your friends list becomes.

@TheJumpingJawaEither appear offline if that’s a thing on Origin or put your profile to busy or something?
this is platform specific. This change needs to come from Origin and not Respawn since it’s Origin’s platform

Disabling them isn't the issue, that can already be done within origin.
The problem is that invites are a useful feature that I don't want to completely disable, just disable while in game.
