On PS4; literally sent to empty lobbies all day today.
The cloud sync issue is likely from the recent Origin update. That's when the cloud sync problems started for me.
The inability to find a match seems to be a dirty secret that we can't get much feedback on. It's a result of the 3 attempts at failed matchmaking improvements. Threads started from Thursday July 5th until now on this topic in the general discussion section of the forums:

Things didn't improve, more threads were started, still no further response. This was communicated after the fact when their 3rd attempt at matchmaking failed.

Some threads were consolidated by moderators as well so the number of threads started were larger. This was just a quick look. Plus this thread and others. You won't likely get an answer until they issue another patch. Hope this provides you with a better picture of the problem. Sadly it can't fix the problem. All platforms have been effected.

Hey everyone!
For the 1066 issue, looks to be connected to the ping site issue and something we are looking in to. We made some progress on the ping site issue, but no ETA for the moment.

you posted this 2 WEEKS ago
and it's still broken
Lets see how long it takes you to answer this
It proves that you just don't care about your customers
TickleBuddy, that's good info. I know there have been issues similar to this when matchmaking improvements were being tested, so it wouldn't be surprising if that is part of the problem again.
Atic, thanks for the response. It's too bad there is no ETA on a fix but at least there is official acknowledgment that there is a problem.
Thank you. I've posted this up in a couple of threads as the users posting thread after thread on this topic-a game breaking bug if you can't play the game-has received little attention and threads keep getting started. I just don't want anyone to feel as though this problem is one that they can fix or that it's data corruption on their HDD/SSD. Uninstall/re-install just wastes your time. I've heard many have tried this to solve the "can't find a game in any game mode issue" Repair installations don't work either. It isn't you or your system. It's another bug.
People want to play. They simply can't. That's a top of the list bug if I've ever seen one. At least in this section of the forum the devs can be made aware.
