Whenever I try to get into the menu and whatever else is available I get this Connection Failed error. Only happens with the beta, 2042 and V work just fine. Anyone else getting this? kinda getting worried that I will not be able to play the beta at all. Thanks
cm title edit
I had the same popup while in the shooting range and got put back in the 280k que. Played one round though and it was cool.
Hello everyone
I'm glad we made this message thread, because I ran into the same problem of not being able to connect to EA servers.
Wait for a fix?
hello!
Yes, unfortunately, the error remains, and it throws it through QR to a non-working site.
Hi!
Can you give step by step guide about this? Thanks!
launching the game through steam no prompt for network allowances or anything just consitanty pops up with a error and a QR code that leads no where. works fine when downloaded and launched from EA. anyone else?
I actually managed to fix it. In Windows Defender, I copied the inbound rules that were automatically created for Battlefield 6 Open Beta by the EA App (Origin). They were for the anti-cheat - specifically for this exe:
"EAAntiCheat.GameServiceLauncher.exe" in steam game folder
I added separate rules for both TCP and UDP, and surprisingly... it worked! Or maybe they just fixed it :?
I have reviewed call outgoing and incoming connections when launching the game; nothing is being blocked, so technically game is free to connect to EA servers, This must be AUTH issue with linking
yeah, I'm having the exact same issue. Seems like it's got something to do with linking your EA account to Steam. Funny thing is, if I download the game through the EA app, it works just fine but then it's a pain to play with friends. And of course, the QR code link they gave just leads to a dead page now Classic...
I even tried following some of the Battlefield 2042 troubleshooting guides, but no luck
as of now i am still getting the error
will i still be able to play tomorrow though
I have this issue as well. Steam overlay pops up to ask for authenticator for two-factor, but the overlay is non-response (I can't click on anything). So it fails and says you can't connect to server.
Is there a way to fix the non-responsive Steam Overlay?
