    Asking for pin after disabling crossplay on MW3


    I recently jumped on MW3 and decided to disable crossplay from the the settings in the xbox dashboard.

    Now when i play MW3 after every game, it asks me to input my pin number then deny crossplay. I have reset my pin, changed all my account settings on microsoft.com as well as on my xbox. How do i make it stop?

    :)

    Microsoft's push of forcing crossplay between PC and Xbox is ruining multiplayer gaming

    Hi thanks for the reply

    Unfortunately disabling crossplay in system options results in not being able to find any games during matchmaking, forced me to turn it back on in Warzone last year. So this isn't viable for anyone.

    Since I got a PS5 after turning off crossplay in the game I haven't had these issues, there's always games to be found.

    On top of this people on reddit are claiming doing this for Halo doesn't actually disable crossplay there's still PC gamers in lobbies.

    The main concern is implementing the option in game. And to add insult to injury both Warzone and Battlefield have this option implemented in game but it's greyed out on the xbox version of the game. The option is there but we've been blocked from accessing it.

    Crossplay should be optional if you happen to have friends who play on PC. Console players who have been asking for crossplay were asking for Xbox vs PS crossplay.

    The lack of choice to shut off crossplay on the Xbox version of Call of Duty: Warzone needs to be addressed by Microsoft immediately

    You sadly can't disable crossplay for warzone on xbox, it's a ps exclusive to be able to disable crossplay for warzone, hopefully this changes eventually.

    Why does my xbox keep showing "User cannot do this because of how your account is set up"

    Unfortunatly it still gives the same message as soon as i login. "To continue, enter the Pin for this profile or provide authorizatiom using your Microsoft account." When i press cancel i can just matchmake like normal untill the end of the match where i get the prompt twice again. But if i press Ok to enter my pin, i enter my pin and i get asked again if i want tovplay with people outside of xbox. If i allow it crossplay is enabled and the prompts top but if i deny i get back to the same message to either enter my pin or cancel.

    It is not the greatest of issues but it i am guessing it will remain as i did read that for pc and xbox it shouldnt be able to turn off crossplay.

    Do you have another solution i could try by chance?

    How do you turn off Crossplay, and still be able to play?

    Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.
    My name is Georges C. welcome to the community.

    Hello David, this ability of games to be crossplay is not activated by the console, but by the developer within the game.

    Some games like Overwatch have the option to turn on crossplay in the game options menu, that's what you have to check.

    I did a quick search and find this site that can help you.

    The problem OP is having is they CAN disable crossplay however it wont let them play Warzone unless they reenable crossplay again whereas on Playstation this isnt a problem. You can play warzone on PSN with crossplay disabled but you cant do the same on XBL.
