PVZGW2 PC Turf Takeover Black Screen, booted out for inactivity

PVZGW2 PC Multiplayer Portal, Turf Takeover mode. Always seems to connect me to a Walnut Hills map, and then I get a black screen with the bopping white daisy in the lower right corner. After a few minutes of this I get booted back to the backyard with a message about inactivity (you know, "doing something other than playing this great game", blah blah blah).

Tested a few servers, same thing happens. Tested Welcome Mat and that seemed to work correctly. But for about a week now, Turf Takeover has been intermittent at best, with constant black screen now for a few days every time I try a TT game.

Anyone else?

  • Also, been reading on here that there seems to be many XBOX players that are currently experiencing server connection issues. I wonder if these issue are related? Not sure how separated the XBOX and PC servers are...

    @MikeyJohn2can confirm the same, the game is broken since Friday, cuz I play daily, either that black screen.. or Failed to find a match. Just like last month, I think it does have something with the hall event, since last month happened the same after the hall got opened, then went back to fine after finished. Only server works for me is Asia, but not lot of players, just 4 vs 4.. sometimes more, only twice happened to have near full lobby, and once finished everyone left like someone pressed a button to Exit.. as for the Xbox and PC servers, I have no clue

    Edit: and once there's more players.. a cheater must be present, don't think EA care much against the cheaters, cuz they have been reported, but you'd see them again and again

  • Well, I played a few times today and everything worked well. PC, multiplayer, Turf Takeover mode, North American East and West, a few times earlier today worked fine.

    But now, I'm just getting repeated "Failed to find a match".

    EA reps, any server issues going on?
