STILL unable to connect to EA Servers

Which system are you on? If anyone else uses your network, you may wish to disable UPnP. Have you been able to play at all? When it fails, what error message do you get exactly.

Thanks

I'm having the same problems. Here are my particulars:

I'm on the Xbox One platform.

Here is a link to my Speedtest Results

Speedtest Results

My NAT Type is OPEN

I have the following ports open:

UDP -> Any -> 88

TCP -> Any -> 3074

UDP -> Any - >3074

TCP -> Any -> 80

UDP -> Any -> 53

TCP -> Any -> 53

The game will load and then it gets to the opening screen where it says to Press Menu Button.

I press the menu button and it comes up with a box on the screen that says "Connection" - "Connecting to EA Servers". It does that for about 30 seconds and then comes back and says "Unable to connect to EA Servers. Please check your network connection and try back later".

It then takes me to the actual menu "Garden Ops", "Multiplayer", etc..

Any option I select except for the "More..." option I get the same "Connection" box and message, tries for 30 seconds and then gives me the same message as I got at the beginning.

I am also in the Dallas area and on Verizon Fios. This seems to be a rather common thread amongst the issues I'm seeing. My guess is EA is going to tell us that it's our ISP is the issue and that we have to deal with them.

I will give this game 1 more try this afternoon once I am off work and if it's not working then I am going to take the game to GameStop and get whatever credit I can for it and I WILL NEVER buy another game that EA is involved in. They've had 2 failed lanuches recently (BF4 and PlantsvsZombie) and their track record is beginning to show.

Same exact situation as baldgrumpyguy.  Xbox One, same exact message, haven't been able to play at all.  Tried this morning before heading to work and still the same issue.  Also, can't connect to Fifa 14 servers either (only other EA game I own for Xbox One).  Trouble is, I've had Fifa 14 for a month and have NEVER had issues connecting.  I too have Verizon Fios and am based in Plano, TX

I wonder if the OP is on Verizon FIOS as well. I'm in the same area and was playing all night without issue, using AT&T U-Verse.

Hi, sorry for the delay, but here's an update on the Verizon issue: http://help.ea.com/en/article/ea-online-services-unavailable-when-using-verizon/

Pretty much all the questions you asked were answered in my original post.  Xbox one.

Home network

NO, i have no been able to play the game at all.

"Unable to connect to EA Servers" is the error message i get.

So is there a fix for if I'm not a Verizon customer and on the Xbox One.  I refuse to change any of my router settings if they work for every other game than they should work for this

I'm having the same problem as the OP.  "Unable to Connect to EA servers at this time." I tried unininstalling the disc, rebooting the system and router.  I haven't been able to play the game for 1 second.. stuck on the main menu.  Im on Time Warner Cable in Hawaii. On Xbox 1 btw

I was able to connect to the EA servers just now, but it was extremely slow. Took almost a minute, normally 10-15 seconds. When it finally connected and I got to the main menu, first thing I noticed was that I had zero coins. I left my game with about 35,000 last night.

Something's not right...

I'm now in the game with my coins.
