Community Manager@daylynmiller, alright thanks. I have seen some other players mentioning this in the past as well, which is strange indeed.
Just a question, can you test if you can set up a mobile hotspot, connect your console to that hotspot and if you're able to connect to the servers that way?
@EA_Leeuw at the moment I do not have a mobile hot spot. I am in the process of adding that to my cell plan.
- EA_Leeuw@daylynmiller, alright. Hmm, do you maybe have friend or family member who can test this for you in that case for the time being? The reason I ask is because I am thinking that something within your local network changed and is now blocking the connection for Battlefield 2042, because other Battlefield games work just fine.
Another player had something similar, and it turned out to be their Uni network changes that block the BF2042 connections, while other Battlefield games worked just fine.Aussie servers are down, as cannot connect, was fine up til a couple of hours ago...
It seems the servers for me are now working. I did nothing more on my end. My network was fine. It does suck that I missed out on almost 3 weeks of experience.
- EA_LeeuwHey @daylynmiller,
There were 0 reports of server issues and nothing changed on our end in the meantime, especially not during the Holidays etc. So in this case I would assume that the issues were indeed caused by potential issues within your home network or ISP, that have resolved itself eventually.I doubt most issues are home network, congestion at a route location seems viable but at the same time people in similar locations can have mixed results.
I think in bf1 towards the end of its life before they switched to amazon servers i showed them something resembling a caching issue with logins.
Which this very well could be again, eg people are logging in once early in the day and then server keeps them or their details alive so that it causes problem when trying to log in again.
