EA servers for Plants Vs Zombies Garden Warfare is constantly disconnecting.

Same thing keeps happenig to me and boy am i pissed i spent more time trying to play than playing 😕mileymad: 

I'm glad someone asked this question because i deal with this problem everytime i play this game on PS4. I'm just wasting my time playing it to some certain of level and ended up getting nothing. Not to mention i've used my plants in that game session. I sometimes add players before i play this game with them and i can rejoin them, though that will only works if they accepted your friend request. Hopefully EA will fix it because it really spoiled the fun.

This happens more times than maybe you guys realize.  If I play 3 rounds of Garden Co-Op at least 2 times I'm disconnected, which I've lost all coins as well as all the plants used during the battle.  Its extremely frustrating and I just turn to Multiplayer which seems a little more stable than Co-op.

I can't tell you how many times I've made it to wave 10...just to be disconnected!!!!!

I love the game.... but sadly I'm finding it taking much long to accumulate coins with this frequent issue, which shouldn't happen as often as it does.

@MsTrinKitty Do you run into this disconnection issue if you host your own Garden Ops game?

Garden Ops is peer hosted, and when joining games, you're connecting directly to another player. If their internet connection is less than great, that will reflect on your connectivity.

The message "You have lost connection to the game session" generally means that the host has left.

Well at first I thought that was the issue too, but I would see the same thing if I hosted.  It might be that I don't get disconnected but my friends might and it could be all of them or one.  I haven't experience this in MP but numerous times in Garden Ops both joining and hosting.  I know disconnects happen when you play online, but the times I get frustrated is when we are having a good battle and were lucky enough to get a bonus garden or the 3 1000 blue diamonds.

I have seen that message but the one I've seen says something about EA servers.  I don't recall the exact wording but I'll keep an eye out for it and let you know.

If its happening when you are in Garden Ops with friends also check your nat settings as well.  Make sure you are on wired connections instead of wireless can help as well.  

No where in this thread does it mention same console co-op (Splitscreen), it's all been refferring to Garden Ops, and it's peer hosting connectivity.

If you're running into an issue with Splitscreen, I suggest making a new thread as it sounds like it would be unrelated to this topic.

Update:

I did check everything you suggested and all is good there - no changes made.  I can honestly say that for the last 10 Garden Ops I've played in the last few days there has been no disconnect.  I did get stuck a few times and was expecting to get disconnected like before but it seemed to straighten itself out in about 30 seconds and I was able to move again. This happened in a hosted game as others were joining my game in wave 5 and 7.

I don't know if there was any connection but it always seemed the disconnect was more prevelant if we got the 3 diamonds in the zomboss slots.   I did not have the 3 diamonds in the last 10 games I've played.

There was however what appeared to be a total disconnect in the MP game I was playing - seemed the entire game went down.  I logged back in and there was only like 1 other person there but within a few minutes it was full game again.  We were at the garden right before the mansion.

I did jot down the msg,

you have been disconnected from psn and ea servers. you will be unable to access any online features until you sign in. please check your network connection and try again later.

Again... i know this happens from time to time in online games and I'd say out of the 100+ MP I've played in PvZ this has only happened once.

For the PSN disconnect, PSN has had issues all weekend so Im not surprised if people disconnected then
