unable to join match with friends

so is EA going to address being unable to join multiplayer with friends, especially if you’re in the same household? we’re on PC and both computers are connected via ethernet cable.

we can join the lobby together, but only one of us will get pulled into the match, and it seems random. the other person’s character will stand up, act like they’re going into a game for a moment, but get stuck at the lobby screen while the other person is able to play. i’ve even tried changing the NAT type on our router to try to fix this.

i also can’t even get a refund for the game on steam because i’ve tried to troubleshoot this for 4 hours of playtime and it’s past the 2 hour refund mark. i only bought this game to play with friends, and also my fiancé who lives in the same house… never have had any multiplayer issues like this on any other game.

    Same problem here. Can’t play with my fiance. Absolutely insane that this is a problem for a triple A game. Debating refunding.

  • Same here. Friends on EA friends list can click on each other and join the game others are in. Even when they are not in a party together. I do not have that option.

  • The only thing that helped me (after doing literally everything else) was resetting my router. 

  • AlexShtBox​ So, after you reset your router, the option to join a game without joining a party came up for those on your friends list? If so, when you say restart your router, do you mean a simple reset or resetting to factory settings?

    I am in the same boat, too. I can't play with anyone who's on the same internet as me.

  • Still the same issue here, restart the router nothing, and it just seems to be getting worse at this point
