    Product: Battlefield 2042, Digital Edition
    Platform: Xbox
    Please specify your platform model: Xbox Series X.  Hard-wired internet, 1 GB down, 100 MB up.
    Are you using any software with an overlay?: No
    Which part of the game is the issue happening in?: Multiplayer
    Which part of the mode?: Conquest and Breakthrough
    Please select your region: United States
    On which server did this happen?: All
    When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm): Every day for the last several weeks, most recently 12/9/2021
    Summarize your bug: If I turn off cross play, I cannot load into a game.  I tried this through the Xbox settings before the previous patch and again after the patch through the game settings.  I have tried every suggestion in the technical support area here including changing ports, using a static IP, reset router, reset my Xbox, uninstalled and reinstalled the game.
    How often does the bug occur?: 100% of the time
    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? On Xbox Series X, turn off cross play and try to join a Conquest or Breakthrough multiplayer match
    What happens when the bug occurs?: Just sits in loading screen waiting for other players to join.  Sometimes people are in the squad with me, sometimes it just shows me.  It will eventually time out to the game menu.
    What should be happening instead?: The game should load in, without cross play.

  • @NZDF Same here. What happened to games starting with bots until humans join? I can sit on a screen saying “waiting for players to join” forever until I eventually quit and give up. I was under the impression all games should start up with bots to fill servers until a human joins to replace the bot. This clearly isn’t happening! Fix this please.
