good news, looks like you can disable cross play. I know this should be expected but its always nice to see it confirmed
Correction, its a crossplay queue for ranked from an input perspective. Kind of silly, just let there be a toggle, especially given their anti-cheat is untested
Where did it say that? To my understanding this applies only to ranked (controller only, m+kb only and mixed search parameters).
I hope these search settings also apply to social.

see, they explained it as “controller hopper, kbm hopper and cross play hopper” which infers crossplay is its own thing and can be disabled at will

I was writing it too… they only spoke for ranked :,(
we don’t have anything official or plain clear for the social playlist yet
I don’t know why it is so difficult to give us a clear answer about this
and this rant is not the usual start of the input battle please, we (or I) just want to officially know if we can choose to play in the social playlist using input-based and platform-based matchmaking options

Like AndSat13 also remarked, they sadly only spoke of ranked unless I’m missing something from the video.
Hopefully for social matches too, sometimes we just want to play casually and have fun and we might end up falling into unbalanced matches. It’s all a matter of having several options for the game, he only has to gain from this.
very disappointing that those options are only in ranked. they admitted themselves that its too difficult to balance KBM with controllers, yet that’s how it is in social anyways?
Was this in the PC Overview video? I haven’t had a chance to watch yet - or was it posted somewhere else that I missed?
As a person who complains about the balance between controller and m/kb (and think controllers still have a slight advantage in majority of situations), I think they are close enough in Infinite that it doesn’t matter for social. Just higher ranked game modes.
I think if your argument is “I wanna play casually”, a player’s choice in input doesn’t influence if they want to try to win in social, haha. And without going too deep into it, I really do think a casual controller player will out shoot a casual m/kb player significantly more often, so it would be in your favor to play with m/kb players in a purely casual setting.
Regardless if you think the above statement is remotely true, or what you think about input balance, someone laying down on a couch playing casually is going to get stomped by controller and m/kb players equally if they are trying to win. And input restricted matchmaking in social won’t fix that.
It’s annoying that we are so close to launch and trivial queries such as “can you disable crossplay” are still unresolved.

But here we are not talking about balance, or the way how one person want to play, or skills…
We are just asking if there will be an OPTION to choose who we are gonna face in the social matchmaking

You aren’t just asking if there will be one in your original post, you are requesting that there be one. Big difference. And all I did was lay out why I don’t think there needs to be a toggle in social.
We gotta avoid the whole “vocal minority” situation on the forums don’t we? Im just voicing my opinion, like you. 
I still don’t understand why they just didn’t went with the MCC route (input and platform toggle).
Blabla play the game like you want, be your own Spartan with your story in multiplayer blabla.

Is it not possible in social, to choose against wich Input device i play? (like in MCC)

At today we only have confirmations for input separation only in ranked playlist

Why not make it like MCC??? - input and platform options for both socials and ranked and everybody will be happy!! If infinite does not have a platform based option (this is why I stopped playing warzone) specially for ranked games I’m definitely NOT playing multiplayer, just the campaign.

Ok, thank you for the response
I would prefer a toggle compared to 3 selectable playlists, that reduces the amount of playlists we’ll have undoubtedly. Even if conceptually it’s similar, it really isn’t, as it takes away a default where the majority would be and replaces it with a reason to do the same thing 3 times. Give me 3 unique playlists > 3 of the same.
