Hi @livinwithaliens7 @eiseeu To check did you notice any changes after the Vol 3 update?
Also just to confirm, have you tried the steps mentioned here...
- Open your NAT Type:
- Try the steps in our Connection and Advance Connection Guides
- Change DNS settings (You can use the public google DNS primary: 8.8.8.8, secondary: 8.8.4.4, unless there is a different DNS you would rather use)
- @EA_Illium I didn't mess with the NAT settings, however, I did contact my internet provider and had them open port on my router. I did mess around with the DND settings and tried the public Google domain but that did nothing.I still get the Failed to Create Lobby error code:FTCL5001 but I'm at least able to get online and connected t0 a server. The problem I'm now facing is when say I'm finished with an online race and I head back to any garage,once I press square to enter garage, it automatically kicks me out of the server and offline to the main menu/dashboard.
I went on yt looking for the same error code (ftcl5001) and someone had a different code but same problem (failed to creat lobby). They couldn't connect to online and they started deleting cars one by one and restarting the game. Turns out one of his cars was bugged and once he sold it, he was able to connect to online no problem.
- @EA_Illium Update, so I did check the NAT type and it's Type 2 and the connection method is LAN cable
so what do i have to do to fix it
I’ve read or at least tried to find anything useful regarding the Error code FTCL5001.
Short story there just isn’t any acceptable solution.in no way is it acceptable to have all the time put in lost because resetting everything appears to be the only way to make the game playable again but that’s also a maybe.
Again this didn’t acceptable. After spending money on expansions to add something more to the game you can’t even use what you’ve paid for.
for the issue at hand and several others.

Are you getting an error message? Yes / FTCL5001
Date this issue started (is it still happening?)? First at the release date of Vol.3 and now from Aug 23, 2023 constantly making online impossible no matter what.
Is anything else happening? Yes, besides everything mentioned here on the forum “RE: Error code FTCL5001, as a result of error code or by happenstance, each time after this lovely error code I get all of the cars from the expansions again and again (yay free cars) … at one stage my garage had 180 cars, 90% only cars from the expansions repeated and repeated (boo 3 was cool, 15 is annoying as god damn hell especially when you can’t sort you cars .. deep breaths). Most recently, I lost all my purchased cars, only leaving the exclusive or expansion cars this also had the safe affect on my campaign but this also included all of the won cars (was super happy …) and finally, even if you manage to get into your online garage and don’t even attempt to find a game and would only like to tweak or buy anything well that would be a no, the purchase of a vechile will just say “purchase failed” and if you try to by and engine part it goes through to only rest the cash and part to what was prior the purchase and I’ve lost a huge amount of money from leaving a link up just got that blue evading bar get to the garage, enter the garage and then welcome to the game start screen, all that money? Gone, XP? While the bar for the progression does its little animated loading sequence that too is for nothing.
Please share any steps you've tried to far to resolve the issue: I have attempted various NAT address, contacted the ISP, reset the playstion, used only local save, then only online then both, then on expandable then back to local, used wired and wireless connection, reinstalled the game 3 times and even tried on a friends playstion on a different continent…
If possible, share a Screenshot or Clip... the clip is too large to attach but would happy email it to a provided email address…
If on PC, please share a DxDiag (Allows us to get PC Spec's, Check for errors/crashes, and look at drivers) No.
could you please assist?!
@shaneo914 bruh that has to the the worse extent of the bug I've heard off, that sucks, anyways there isn't anything really you can do except sell cars and delete wraps, both on single and multiplayer due to them being linked, the issue doesn't come from our end, nor the Devs but the server itself, EA need to talk to the guys that run their servers for Unbound to see if the issue can be fixed
