    Nope. This has been happening for me as well on PS4 for a long time. It won't fix until I restart the entire system. Each. Time.
  • Unfortunately, no. I've tried those as well. The problem seems to be when I try to follow a party member into a game. I found the only solution is to use the join friend screen found on the left of the battlefield 1 Home Screen (the one that also shows an image of the current map. Using any other option (the R2 menu, holding the touchpad when prompted, highlighting a party member in the PlayStation party chat screen and pressing join, joining through the PlayStation main screen, joining the server through server browser) will not work and will only bring up the "failed to join: unknown error" message. I'm able to join a server just fine if I'm the BF1 party leader. I didn't have these issues with any of the previous battlefield squad join systems. I'm hoping BF:V doesn't carry over BF1's way of doing it

    Hey @NeonBlight sorry to hear that did not work. Try doing a power cycle and restore licence on your PS4 to see if that changes anything for you. 

    Lets us know if that works. 🙂
