20 hours of "playtime" voiding my Steam refund yet I've never made it past this screen.

My internet is fine. Other games work. This is not a PEBCAC error. I don't know what to do.

    Hey @itsYins,

    Are you getting a Unable to connect to EA servers in BF2042 that you bought via Steam?

      @EA_Leeuw Yes. Thank you so much for the reply. I bought on Steam. I played the beta ok on Steam with no problems. I bought the Gold Edition on Steam because I enjoyed the game so much and wanted Early Access.

      I've tried Running Steam and Origin as Administrator. Any other thoughts on what I should do?

        @itsYins @B0TJU4N , alright I merged both threads real quick. Somewhat handier to keep everything in one place. 🙂

        Because I continue with possible troubleshooting steps, I would like to ask you some questions:

        • Are you able to play other EA games via Steam as normal? (You can try it with Apex Legends, for example, this is free)
        • When you login in Origin with the EA account that is connected to your Steam account, do you see BF2042 with a Steam logo?
        • Do you have an antivirus installed? Of so, make an exclusion for BF2042, Origin and Steam or turn it off temporarily > boot-up the game to see if you can connect
        • Can you please post a DxDiag of your system?
