Re: Matchmaking Error after 5.1.1 patch (July 18, '23 - All Platforms)

@Monster_N01 @ShuttyMetz, alright. I see that those Code and Data numbers are the same as what I mentioned here and here, meaning that you in fact have Update 5.1.1 installed.

    Update stuck, even after several retries. The download just stalled (on a stable 1 Gbps wired connection). Had to run repair twice to get it working. Some days I’m spending way more time troubleshooting and waiting for servers to get back than actually playing. This is barely a beta quality experience.

    Still having the issue. Restarted my PC etc. 

  • After retry, same error. 

    Also in all the games, not just Breakthrough that I play.

    @tikumo, this is indeed an issue that we are actively looking into, as it's something that seems to repeat itself every time a patch gets released for PC EA app players. However, this is unrelated to the global matchmaking issues that affected all platforms earlier today.

    Please read before performing the 'temporary' (until another patch gets released) solution:
    Could you please share the following here in the thread?

    EA app Error Report ID

    • Please share an EA app Error Report ID here in the thread. Steps can be found here on how to generate this ID.
      • If you cannot open the EA app, you can still generate an Error Report ID by following the steps mentioned underneath the section called "I can't open the EA app".

    EA app logs

    • Please share logs of the EA app, by either creating a .rar file of them and adding them to your post,
      • The EA app logs can be found in C:\ProgramData\EA Desktop\Logs & C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop\Logs.

    Again, please do this before performing the 'temporary' solution (until another patch gets released).

    'Temporary' solution

    Spoiler

    If you are playing on PC EA app and if the EA app did not offer the patch to you, please make sure to perform an EA app recovery and check if you can download/install the new patch.

    Alternatively, try to repair the game via the EA app.

    If you do not have the newest patch installed, it's working as intended and matchmaking (for every mode) will fail.

    Thank you.

    @tikumo, okay, good to know! šŸ™‚

    Feel free to update the thread if you're still having issues after installing the patch.

    Hey @HashBandicoot2,

    Did you capture the EA app Error ID, EA app Logs, and after that, perform the EA app Recovery and Game Repair?
