Re: Can't find players/lobbies always empty Star wars Battlefront 2

Ok guys ... I got it working. In a live chat with the EA support team the guy there suggested openening some ports that Battlefront uses.

And this solved the empty server connection issue for me. Before 9 in 10 games or even more connected me to empty lobbies and after I opened the ports and restarted the game I wasnt connected to one single empty server all day. See this list for which ports you have to open: https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/faq/opening-tcp-or-udp-ports-for-connection-issues/#battlefront

Hope it helps.

    THANK YOU, @jan_case!! I was considering returning the game until I found this info. Also, I changed my ping site to Oregon which I think might've helped. Thanks to you the game works PERFECTLY, whereas before it failed to find a single match. I already had all the ports forwarded for XBOX Live, 2015 BF, etc, but didn't think to check if there were new ones listed for this title.

  • A match requires a certain amount of players to be connected to start (I think its 10), so people connect see that game wont start for a while since it doesn't have 10 players yet and leave.

    Please remove the limit completely, so game starts with bots or 2 players minimum. This way people wont just leave upon connecting and maybe game won't be as dead?

    Still the same!!! ☹️
  • Guys don't buy these games from EA. These games are a waste of money if you cannot even play them because there is no one to play with online. You are better off just throwing money in the trash, at least it won't waste your time.
