Summarize your bug 2nd ATTEMPT FOR FIX OR SOLUTION ++Background Information++ Platform: Xbox Series X My Game: Battlefield 2042 Ultimate Edition Game Mode: CONQUEST (That is all we play, but the other modes don't load right either) Problem Started: 11/15/21 Problem Seemed Fixed 11/17/21. Same Problem 11/22/21 to NOW. Cross Platform: Both OFF and ON (Problem 1 way or other) My Region/Location: USA/West Coast Bay Area (Pacific Standard Time) QUICK NOTE SUMMERY: Matches don't load with Friends. Their games work fine immediately without me. At around 6pm PST my game magically works as if there is no issue. This has happened every night since 11/15/21, I am unable to play during the day, game only works after 6pm. Issue Seemed Fixed 11/17/21, no issues, BROKEN AGAIN 11/22/21-CURRENT THE ISSUE: I am having issues connecting to your matches while in a party with my friends. It's very confusing so I will try and keep it as orderly as possible. We all play Battlefield 2042 on Xbox Series X. We do not play in cross platform mode. When ever we load a game with me in the party, at the start of match we get stuck on the "Waiting For Players to Join" screen with the Player Cards stuck, until the game boots us to the main menu after about 5min. This will repeatedly happen until I leave party. We haven't gotten a single game to load with me in the party since 11/15/21. If they load a match without me, it immediately works for them. After 6pm PST, my game magically works as intended: Everything is perfect besides minor in game stuff, which will come along eventually. I love this game as is and understand there's bugs, but this one is strange (I am level 70, T1 Medic and today is Day 4 since Release, (I LOVE IT!). So we all play with Cross Platform OFF. The online fix to this problem is play with Cross Platform ON. Well, this is where it gets strange: If we all have Cross-Platform ON, whenever ANYONE from my party joins with me, the game loads and works as intended SOMETIMES (if it doesn't error out to the main screen), but my friends don't have Complete Battlefield 2042 Conquest loadouts. They don't have access to the Gadget or secondary slot. They don't have ANY loadouts and are unable to customize anything with their unlocks. They get the basic M5A3 and can't do anything about it. Its as if they are playing Battlefield 3 in Battlefield 2042 Conquest Mode. This happens EVERYTIME for them, but my game works magically lololol. AFTER ABOUT 6PM PST EVERYTHING WORKS FINE!?!? I can join my friends with Cross Play OFF and have a wonderful Battlefield Experience. But before 6pm PST If I play with my friends with Cross Platform OFF: We Don't Load Into Match. If I play with my friends with Cross Platform ON: None of their characters work and are playing Battlefield 3 Style in Battlefield 2042 Conquest All-Out Warfare. If they load a game without me, Their Games Work Fine. If They Load A Game With Me, Its Broken. NOTE: Issue seemed fixed, now I'm not able to play during the day, instead of evening hours......... It's just me for some reason like my Xbox or Account is a contagion that breaks the game for all my friends. I thought the day 1 patch would fix it, but the problem persists. I just want to play with my friends and I have submitted 2 tickets for correcting with no help. And 1 on THIS BUG FORUM. It took a post on the EA Support Facebook Page to get any response and he recommended I submit this here.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I am not sure. I am only able to play during specific hours deemed at your choosing. I don't no how to fix this issue, seems like a local server issue?
What happens when the bug occurs? The game loads and works perfectly fine. It's connecting to matches that don't work. When my friends load a game by themselves its perfectly fine for them.
What should be happening instead? The game should load when I am in a party, and shouldn't break for my friends as well.

Hello! I Hope All Is Well!
This is attempt number 2! I never got a response to attempt number 1. Issue seemed to be fixed, NOW ITS BACK!!! YAYAYAYAYAY!
I copied and pasted my original post. Along with UPDATED INFORMATION!
I know you probably have a lot going on, but this bug seems to be a real issue. I just want to play the game when I am ready WITH my friends during hours ya'll arn't letting me play.
++Background Information++
Platform: Xbox Series X
My Game: Battlefield 2042 Ultimate Edition
Game Mode: CONQUEST (That is all we play, but the other modes don't load right either)
Problem Started: 11/15/21 (SEEMED FIXED 11/17-11/22) Broken again 11/22-CURRENT
Cross Platform: Both OFF and ON (Problem 1 way or other)
My Region/Location: USA/West Coast Bay Area (Pacific Standard Time)
QUICK NOTE SUMMERY: Matches don't load with Friends. Their games work fine immediately without me.
At around 6pm PST my game magically works as if there is no issue. This has happened every night since 11/15/21, I am unable to play during the day, game only works after 6pm.
THE ISSUE:
I am having issues connecting to your matches while in a party with my friends. It's very confusing so I will try and keep it as orderly as possible. We all play Battlefield 2042 on Xbox Series X. We do not play in cross platform mode. When ever we load a game with me in the party, at the start of match we get stuck on the "Waiting For Players to Join" screen with the Player Cards stuck, until the game boots us to the main menu after about 5min. This will repeatedly happen until I leave party. We haven't gotten a single game to load with me in the party since 11/15/21. If they load a match without me, it immediately works for them. After 6pm PST, my game magically works as intended: Everything is perfect besides minor in game stuff, which will come along eventually. I love this game as is and understand there's bugs, but this one is strange (I am level 50 and today is Day 1 Release, I LOVE IT!). So we all play with Cross Platform OFF.
The online fix to this problem is play with Cross Platform ON. Well, this is where it gets strange: If we all have Cross-Platform ON, whenever ANYONE from my party joins with me, the game loads and works as intended SOMETIMES (if it doesn't error out to the main screen), but my friends don't have Complete Battlefield 2042 Conquest loadouts. They don't have access to the Gadget or secondary slot. They don't have ANY loadouts and are unable to customize anything with their unlocks. They get the basic M5A3 and can't do anything about it. Its as if they are playing Battlefield 3 in Battlefield 2042 Conquest Mode. This happens EVERYTIME for them, but my game works magically lololol.
AFTER ABOUT 6PM PST EVERYTHING WORKS FINE!?!? I can join my friends with Cross Play OFF and have a wonderful Battlefield Experience. But before 6pm PST If I play with my friends with Cross Platform OFF: We Don't Load Into Match. If I play with my friends with Cross Platform ON: None of their characters work and are playing Battlefield 3 Style in Battlefield 2042 Conquest All-Out Warfare. If they load a game without me, Their Games Work Fine. If They Load A Game With Me, Its Broken.
It's just me for some reason like my Xbox or Account is a contagion that breaks the game for all my friends. I thought the day 1 patch would fix it, but the problem persists.
I just want to play with my friends and I have submitted 2 tickets for correcting with no help. It took a post on the EA Support Facebook Page to get any response and he recommended I submit this here.
I've never played a game where I break the game for everyone else and after exhausting all my options I am fed up with what is going on. I bought the Series X, Elite Controller 2, and Turtle Beach Stealth 700 just for this game ($1200) + Battlefield 2042 Ultimate for $120 and I break the game for everyone else. I can't play with my friends and if I can't play with my friends I don't want to play the game.
I am willing to submit or do anything it takes to rectify the issue!!
Thank you so much for your time. I understand you guys have a lot going on. Please keep up the great work, its early but I see so much limitless potential in this game. I just want the ability to play with my friends 🙂 🙂 !!!
