Private matches don’t work with 4 people. Works fine with 3 people. When the 4th person joins it crashes. Happens almost every time for me. Worked fine for the whole Ryder cup season but since then has gotten progressively worse. Please help.

Summarize your bug There are widespread connectivity issues in online gaming (any mode). Certain players crash the entire lobby when they join the lobby. This happens in match play, foursomes, and stroke. For example, there could be 10 players waiting in the lobby, and as soon as the 11th player joins, the whole lobby loses connection and gets sent back to the home screen. The same issue occurs often while trying to set up private games. It has been happening since game launch with zero fixes on EA's part. Several players have tried all of the troubleshooting tips offered on various forums and on this website. Nothing works. It makes the game unplayable at times
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Not sure how, other than trying to play online and eventually seeing this happen.
What happens when the bug occurs? See above
What do you expect to see? I expect a fix that works, other than continuous useless suggestions on how to improve our connectivity, which has no issue on any other EA games.

- @ba22d013a5b3b0c2 sadly, this is common these days. There is a topic in the technical forums about the same issue relating to private matches. The bug is the same. Some players, when they join, automatically crash the entire lobby. https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/Private-matches-don-t-work-with-4-people/td-p/13437540 Please EA address this issue for the next season that starts in 8 days.
8 days? Where did you hear this. Pro Pass has another 6 weeks to run.
@Mark_MiwurdzI just said that a new season starts in 8 days. It's reasonable to think that they have an update to coincide with the new season as that is how the game has worked since April of last year. The current season ends after next monday. (you can see this based on the end date of the seasonal tournament)
