Try validating your game files on steam. I had the same issue and when I checked mine I was missing 4 of the files from update 3 about 6 mb. That seemed to fix it for me

What should be happening instead? Successfully joining game
Been playing BF2042 successfully until 14.12.21. After this day I can't join any servers (I have not changed anything network related).
Joining match (any mode) + portal, getting countdown from 10, screen goes black and then loading symbol appear. then sent back to main menu. No error messages.
Game is basically unplayable. The few games I was able to join yesterday, they were all games that had not started. Today I haven't been able to join one single game yet due to this problem.
Have you found a fix yet?
I'm having the same issue. It's been happening for several weeks now. Occasionally it will let me join a game but 90% of the time, this issue occurs.
Since the new patch I am having this problem. If I try to start single player, it goes back to menu. If I host a game on portal, i might be able to play for up to 3 minutes at best. Been trying for 2 days now. I did verify the file integrity with steam. Not sure what else to try... the game is way more broken than it was. Before my main complaint was that you could not aim your weapon half the time (which happens after exiting a vehicle)...
