Error 2889 Joining a Game

Product: Star Wars Battlefront II
Platform:Sony Playstation 4
What is your issue related to? General
Summarize your bug I sometimes get this error when joining a game and I am not partied up with anyone in game or out of game. I literally just turned on my PS4 jumped in Battlefront 2 and tried to join a game. As you can see at the top right corner I am not partied up with anyone in game because their avatars are not showing up in the top left corner next to the +2 friends online. I tried to join a game and got immediately kicked from the game because it said someone in my party was trying to join a game already, but I'm not in any party. I have to restart the game in order for it to allow me to join any game in any of the game modes.
What is your gamertag/PSN ID/EA Account name? willywonka7
How often does the bug occur? Occasionally (10% - 49%)
Can you tell us the date (MM/DD/YYYY) that you saw the bug? 07/21/2018
What time did you see the bug? (HH:MM AM/PM) 09:00 AM
In what game mode did the bug occur? Strike
What is your time zone? EST (IET) - GMT - 5:30
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I tried to join a game and got immediately kicked from the game because it said someone in my party was trying to join a game already, but I'm not in any party. I have to restart the game in order for it to allow me to join any game in any of the game modes.
What happens when the bug occurs? I am no longer allowed to join any game mode at all and I have to restart my game in order to join a game.
What do you expect to see? I should be able to join a game mode.....any mode and I shouldn't be kicked for joining. I also shouldn't be kicked or blocked from joining when I have no party and there is no other person trying to join another game because again I don't have a party going in game or out of game.

  • But the error message states that it thinks I'm in a party and one of the members of the party is trying to start a game....even though I have never joined a party.  

    The issue fixed itself after I restarted the game, but it still occurs occasionally.   I didn't need to recycle my router.

  • I genuinely have people following me around on the game and harassing me every single time I play it, they no joke steer my character 180° so computer characters can walk up and shoot me in the back, they have made it so I can’t steerl left and then I reset my controller and it fixes it right away it’s not the controller and the computer walks to my left side when that happens and tries to walk behind me and suddenly I can’t turn, they lag me out specifically when I’m in the middle of a fight with the npc’s so my shots won’t  count, I have seen all sorts of crazy stuff like my character being controlled standing up for me and then I try to reset my Console and Internet to fix the issue go to launch the game again and it says that my friend is still finishing up a round, While playing co-op I have recorded on my console there being 11 people in the four-person room meaning seven people were following me around and modding against me heavily, something needs to be done about this gaming companies are allowing legitimate stalking to take place!
