When I select conquest or hazard zone my game starts loading into the game mode, goers to the map screen and says standby, showing the map I’ll be playing on but will never load past this screen. It just sits there saying standby, I’ve waiting 15-20 minutes a few times in hopes it would work. It’s been like this all day. I’ve gotten into a game 1 time. While stuck on this screen there’s no way to get off of it without restarting the Xbox console.

I'm still experiencing that issue.I've uninstall the game and re-install it again. update button at Origin is available even after fresh re-install.Try to join a game with no luck.This is how its look like: https://vimeo.com/703146099I cancel crossplay and join a game - it work but I cannot tell if its the problem as I able to join a match once in a while even if crossplay is on.For example, I enable crossplay again and it work also, and I didn't try again since.EDIT:"Double NAT" was active from my ISP side, which means that I got external IP address and another virtual IP which I can only see at the router's administrator settings.It means that if you forward ports it just wouldn't work because the ports never forwarded to the right IP and basically block from ISP side.When that "double NAT" disabled I got brand new IP that I set to static, and then forward the ports that I mention to that specific static IP.It maybe work even without forward the ports, just by disable that "double NAT" thing. In my case I took no prisoners and forward those ports.All BF2042 mods I've tested right now work without issues, first time from game release at November.Cheers

https://youtu.be/jgNXuezpxRoWhen game is starting and count down to 0. It won't join the game and come back to lobby screen. Battlefield Portal is also unable to join the game too. There is nothing happen when I click to join on server list.Turn off cross-play won't help. This happened over 2 days. Yesterday I can join only 1 match.

Hello, I am trying to play BF 2042. When I am joining a game, no matter if alone or in a group, it kicks me into menu. I can play in pve against bots but not pvp against other players. There is no error code or smth, just a another loading screen before im back in menu. Any solutions?

@AzarasGER having similar issues. I can play bf2042, bf bad company 2. But when I try playing bf3 or 1942 it let's me in the game I run around a little and it just kicks me into the main menu

Can't join anything on ps5. My Internet speed is 200mb wired. I get no issues in any games. In portal broswer pressing X doesn't initiate joining. Only solution is to restart game from ps5 menu or disconnect from the Internet then reconnect. I have to do this AFTER EVERY MATCH. only first matchmaking works after that it always like the videoPlease watch my video that ahows the issue:https://youtu.be/eBggAv7qSGYAs you can see each attempt to join is count down to cam rotation around the player to right back to the menu. Happens in conquest, breakthrough, hazardzone, portal.Also in portal browser pressing X to join a server does nothing.UPDATE: I fixed it by making my PS5 a local host in my router settings. Basically give your deivce a static IP. This can be done different ways depending on the device, the router, and the internet provider.Still don't know if this is an issue from EA servers or internet providers.I found people with the same issue on PC, PS5, and XSX. From different parts of the world. So I really think it's an issue from EA servers and it needs to be fixed if they care
