Can two players play Battlefield V on the same console? Sadly, the answer is no. Neither Xbox One nor PS5 support cross-platform multiplayer, so to play against other players you’ll need to buy another console. Fortunately, the game does support a maximum of 64 players in total, with 16 squads comprised of four players each. This is a lot of people, so it’s not the end of the world.

Co-op
The next major Battlefield game will introduce Co-op mode, which is referred to as Combined Arms. This mode will be procedurally generated, meaning that the missions will be different every time you play them. This will give players a unique experience within the Battlefield series, and will be a great way to get the hang of the series without having to compete with other players. In addition, the new mode will be compatible with the game’s other modes.
There are a couple of problems with this new co-op mode. First, downed players won’t be able to reholster their primary weapon, such as an M9. This can cause visual animation glitches, but you can still fire your primary weapon without problems. This is beneficial, especially if you’re using an automatic weapon. Co-op was originally intended to have four players, and a remnant of this can be seen in the mission artwork.
Arcade mode
In Arcade mode of Battlefield 5, players must destroy enemy ground units and air units to earn tickets. They can also seize enemy airfields. Each level features different objectives, from destroying the enemy base to dominating the enemy airfield. While playing Arcade mode, players can respawn with another vehicle if they lose their current vehicle. The enemy airfields vary in size, but the main objective remains the same – to protect your base.
Realistic battles are also available. This mode has realistic aircraft flight models, damage, and physics. It is less forgiving than Arcade mode, but offers a more realistic experience. Players can spawn as jets, piston aircraft, and helicopters. However, they will need to go back to an airfield to reload. The matchmaker will also set up aircrafts and weapons for specific nations. Arcade mode can also be difficult for new players.
Conflicting MAC address
It is possible for your console to have a conflicting MAC address. If this occurs, you may not be able to launch the game. If you experience this problem, try clearing the MAC address stored on your console. Alternatively, you can clear it from the Advanced Settings. In order to test whether this will help, turn off the console for 30 seconds. Then, check if the problem persists.
Cross-platform play
If you’ve been looking for a way to play Battlefield 5 with your friends, you’ll be disappointed to know that you can’t. The game is only cross-platform for Xbox and PC, and you have to play with another person who has the same platform. While this is a problem for some gamers, it’s not a huge deal if you don’t need to play with people who have the same platforms.
The big question now is, will there be cross-platform play for Battlefield 5? Sadly, no. You’ll have to buy a different console to play with your friends. The game supports up to 64 players, and you can join up to 16 four-player squads. While this sounds like a lot of fun, it’s not a major selling point for the game. Hopefully, Cross-platform play will come to the game in the future.
