Unable to go online

My STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT 2 GAME is not allowing me to go online and access my other contents. It keeps showing me an error message stating that it failed to connect to EA Servers. Please do assist.

  • Hey @penguinzheng 

    There are a couple of recent threads about this same subject ...so you are far from alone with this problem.

    All I can tell you is what I do ....and that is to keep hitting CONNECT...it may take half a dozen goes but eventually it connects. ...AND you can access all your online content!

  • @chuntery I've got a sneaking suspicion (and EA/DICE prolly won't confirm) that the servers are on limited player slots while they either have connection issues, or are doing maintenance.

    @penguinzheng Have had this problem occasionally myself. I play on console (xbox) and if this happens I hit the SWITCH PROFILE button, then select my profile again. This usually works. Whatever platform you're on should have something similar.

    @pantsmode 

    You may be right and I suspect also that we may never find out ...we could speculate that there is an issue with the number or permissible concurrent connections to the host servers or a problem with load balancing etc.

    What we are seeing is an issue that arose post the availability of the free version of SW2 battlefront and thus a sudden surge in the number of players. SW2 battlefront is at "end of life" with no official updates etc ..... so EA will probably just weather the storm?
