I purchased the game through Steam.
I'm playing on Laptop, Alienware AREA 51mr2, RTX2080, 32GB RAM, i9-10900k, SSD (2TB)
Internet is working fine.
* TPM 2.0 enabled
* Secure Boot enabled
* All dirvers are updated.
* BIOS is updated
* Steam and EA App accounts are linked
* EA App and Steam are both updated (made sure of that)
EA App is working, I can play FIFA through the EA App (it connects to EA servers)
Internet is working fine.
[Edit]: As soon as I installed the game on launch day, i was able to succesfully sign in, I went to the firing range to test the gunplay, then I quit as I had somewhere to go. Once I came back to the game, I was never able to make it past the "connecting to online Services" Screen. I've tried logging in at different times, to no luck.
I have tried:
- Verify Game files through Steam (all correctly verified, multiple itmes)
- unplugging USBs, replugging USBs,
- Run other games thorough EA App, they run fine.
- using WIfi/Ethernet, switch between them
- I'm not using a VPN
- [Edit] - Enabling/Disabling Steam Overlay
- [Edit] Rebooting Laptop - still cant connect
- [Edit] Reset modem / mesh - No good
- [Edit] Turning on/off EA overlay (Game does not even show in EA App, as it is from steam, but hey, cant hurt to try - No luck)
- [Edit] Adding the game to the antivirus (Kaspersky) exclusions. -Did not work
- [Edit] Runing the .exe as administrator - No luck
- [Edit] Running the Anticheat exe as administrator -Nope
- [Edit] Second gues my life choices - Made it worse.
- [Edit] Clearing cache of both Steam and EA App - Nay.
- [Edit] Turning off overlay from NVIDIA - Nein
Is anyone else having these problems? IF YOU DO, please post it here, that way we can increase the chances of EA team spotting this issue/thread.

Yeah bro same problem. I had the same issue with the beta and I Uninstaller on steam and installed on ea app... I guess I am refunding bf6 on steam and rebuying it on ea. Idk what the problem is because all my other battlefield games are on steam and show up in ea.

Hey man, playing direwctly through EA app fixed your issue with EA servers?
- AndthornDebu6 days agoNew Novice
EA_Shepard I've tried contacting steam support, EA support, raise a ticket. BUt I have not gotten any answer or troubleshooting steps to try and solve this. Is there any chance that the tewam could look into this?
I'd appreciate any help I can get. Thanks for your time - Nick_Diamond_CRO5 days agoSeasoned Newcomer
I have same error on Ps5

I don't know if this will help but I had the same error and followed the same steps as you did. Additionally, if I went to Steam downloads I had a download pending for BF6 of around 500B that was stuck with the message "Game not released". To fix that, I went into Steam properties for the game, DLC tab and unchecked "Battlefield Multiplayer Marker" and "Battlefield Multiplayer HD Marker". That did not fix it but at least I had no more pending downloads.
After that I did a bunch of system reboots until finally while the game was booting up one time I used Alt+Tab and the Windows Defender Firewall dialog popped up; the one where you can allow an app to use Public or Private networks on your PC. Up until that point I did not get that dialog even though I was constantly tabbing out to check stuff in Chrome while the game was running, so I am not sure what caused it to finally show up. After allowing everything, the game was able to reach the servers. If that does not show up for you, you can try to manually allow the BF6 app in the Windows Defender Firewall and see if that solves your issue.

Hey man, I really appreciate your detailed walkthrough!
Today I went back from vacations to my home, and it seems I was able to play normally here. It might have been an issue with the ISP provider, but can't confirm for sure as the internet was working perfectly normal.
Sadly, this issue probably persists with the other people in this thread. Unfortunately I cannot confirm what caused this. - SoulReaper8502 days agoSeasoned Novice

I have a similar issue on my Xbox, I was able to login and now I can’t. However my error code is different. 1:86001s:51009s:1146833213o:1073807360q
Your error code I get with BF2042. I tried BF2042 out maybe year ago via gamepass and ea play. I played it once then couldn’t get in, but I never followed up on the issue and moved onto different games. I redownloaded it to see if I could get in and I get the above error code.
When I searched about these error codes, people seem to think it has to do with an account authentication issue. I know my EA ID will display an old name on the account management page and the current name in the support and forum sections.
I have ruled about software and network issues, since another profile/gamertag can access Battlefield on the same Xbox.
