garden ops now completly broken.

Ive now tried 9 times to play garden ops and have had the zombies below the world and or standing still with no way to advance the next wave. Why is it with every update you guys release brings problems to the game that were not there before?
On the xb1 and played almost all the maps including jewel junction with this same problem since taco tuesday.

What I was saying was if you're the host and it is working correctly, the issue really isn't on your end and there isn't anything you can do to fix their problem; unless you inform them.

If you are the host and still get the issue, delete and reinstall/download the game - this time don't boot the game until it's reached 100% completion.

Thanks for the post. Are you hosting the games yourself or joining another player's game? Is anyone else seeing similar behaviour?

Just in case this is something local, try hard restarting your xbox as a first step.

A work around for this that I've seen working has been:
- Delete and redownload the game
- Do not play during the streaming install
For some reason playing during the streaming install seems to incorrectly install some of the splitscreen files for some reason.
You will not lose any of your progression when deleting, as it's saved server side.

I'M not playing splitscreen. And I dont play until its fully installed. Also ill be damned if i have to sit for 5+ hrs again to re download the game. Also I'm joining rooms...not creating them.

Sorry, this issue generally occurs for people trying to play splitscreen, but it also breaks their Garden Ops.
In the end, what you want to try is up to you.

If you host does it occur? If not, I assume the players you are joining have been playing during the streaming install...

Are you able to host your own game and stay connected? Garden Ops is host-based so you are connecting to another player, and if their connection isn't so great, you'll have connection issues.

I would suggest hosting a game just to see if it works; creating a game would get you into the action faster than searching for one would. 😕mileytongue:

I am having the same issue. I have tried all off the suggested fixes and have not had any luck in joining a Garden Op match. And yes I have tried hosting my own. I have great internet as well. This is a very frustrating and disappointing considering this is one of the main parts of the games. I think EA should offer some kind of compensation for this issue.
