Unable to join any friends through party menus.

Product: Battlefield 2042
Platform:PC
Please specify your platform model. PC
AMD or Nvidia Model Number EVGA 3090 FTW3 Ultra
Enter RAM memory size in GB 64GN
Are you using any software with an overlay? No
Which part of the game is the issue happening in? Game Menu
In which game menu were you when the bug occurred? The Social Menu
Please select your region North America
On which server did this happen? This happens before actually getting into a match.
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) 12.11.2021
Summarize your bug I am NEVER able to successfully join another player's match by joining their party and sitting in the queue. The game will go through the queue and begin loading the map at the end of it, but will ALWAYS just drop me back on the main menu after that and NEVER actually join the game. If we're both in the menus and join a party together and *then* join a new match together, it works fine, but cannot join on a match that has already started.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Try to join a friend's party through the social menu to join their already in progress match and experience it for yourself.
What happens when the bug occurs? I am unable to ever join a friend's match that they are already playing through the social menu.
What should be happening instead? I should be able to join my friends through the social menu.

The summary makes everything perfectly clear.

  • I am having the same issue. Ever since Secure boot was enacted, I am unable to join my friends in Party if they are in the PC platform. However, if they are on one of the console platforms, no problem.  I can invite, still, and if invited I can join them, but I cannot join their party nor join in on the server they are playing. 

    As Fondy1983​ says, this needs a remedy. If the programmers were doing their due dillagence this would have never been an issue or already solved?
