Prior to downloading Jakku, I had no issues whatsoever. Since then, though, I have barely been able to find an active game that wasn't "Turning Point," and even with that game type I spend 50% of time trying to find an active game. With the other 9 multi-player game types, I perpetually get "Waiting for 29 more players," or similar. I would like to play Walker Assault, Supremacy, Fighter Squadron, actually ANYTHING would be nice. This is an absolute joke, and can only feel I've been robbed of my money. Had the game not been exclusively multi-player (ie lacking a story/campaign mode), I could have had at least some thing to do...other than waiting waiting waiting and developing a hatred for whoever signed off on this without a story/campaign mode. I honestly feel robbed of my hard-earned money forked out for the game and season pass! I'm on PS4, with NAT type 2, relevant ports forwarded, and still can't play. This morning alone, I have spent 3 hours trying to play, and have gotten maybe 15 minutes of actual play. This is absolutely PATHETIC!

Me too. I'm having connection issues seemingly immediately after getting this Jakku update. If I click on the include 'Battle of Jakku' map rotation button, then I can completely forget about finding any servers other than Turning Point. Even without it being clicked, I'm very rarely able to find other servers available. For example, just now I completely restarted the game, clicked on Drop Zone, and not a single server is being found? Come on, You're telling me millions of people bought this game, and there's not a single server available for me to join on a Sunday morning? Bull.FIX THIS ISSUE YOU INTRODUCED TO ME WITH A POORLY TESTED UPDATE.I work as a telecommunications technician, so I can promise you this has nothing to do with my internet. My line tests 100% clean, and my speedtest results are exactly where they should be. My computer is connected by ethernet as well. This is all on you, EA.I feel completely robbed and disappointed this rushed POS has been released, and am seriously considering returning this game. I was very hesitant to support EA to begin with, and so this completely confirms the nonsense I already knew that was coming. As if the complete lack of content wasn't enough, now I can't even play this game. Thanks EA.This needs to be fixed ASAP.

Me too! I'm from Brazil and I can hardly find any game.Since the Battle of Jakku however, the issue became worst! Even if I turn off the DLC content I have no luck most of the time in finding a game on any mode.PATHETIC INDEED!

I am using a PC to play Star Wars Battlefront, and sometimes I can't even play deathmatch or walker assault mode (seems to be the most played). So I disconnect from Origin for a few seconds and then reconnect again using in game reconnection. This is not a solution, but in most of the time I can "find" deathmatch or walker assault mode to play! For other modes, this does not seem to work.

I think we have to get this to where it hurts them most: EA's Twitter.There they can really see the problem (and so thousands of other consumers). The game flopped already on PC and Xbox, so they will be desperate for it not tank even more.I would also do it myself if I had a Twitter account, but those of you who does have, please, spread the word that it's absurd a multiplayer centric game that has no games available to play!

Im having the same issue. I tried forwarding different ports, using a VPN to try and connect to other servers but to no avail. I havent connected to a single online game since purchasing the game. Very disappointed

Hello. I'm from Belgium and playing the PC version of the game and having the same issue. Since today.

I've been trying to start ANY game from 7AM to 12AM and I never get enough players to get a game starting :-/
There are always just a handfull of players, but never enough.

I have the same problems as the others. I just keep clicking different game modes until one takes. Also maybe the players should be able to adjust search parameters such as minimum % full a match has to be and if search fails have it restart the search instead of putting you in an empty lobby. Or perhaps if you get put into an empty lobby have the game count down and start anyways, then players can at least run around score some points and collect charges, possibly even have AI enter the match?

Same problem here...I have seen no responses from anyone who works with EA about this issue either. For a while we thought it was only happening to us in AUS but it certainly seems a lot more widespread than i thought. I dont want a refund because i like the game but not being able to play is very disappointing. I hope you guys can fix this ASAP or at least let us know whats going on.

This has been a hot topic and a lot of users already found this issue. Especially for the regions that doesn't have much sales, hence less player to get the game started. The matching system is a complete joke. Since there are only full, less full and empty room can work with, player cannot choose or wait on the full games. Also if you have a party of 5 or more, you cannot find any games with players with it.

This is Blast right now, again. Here is also a bloke I found waiting in various game servers. He kept showing up waiting for the same game types, so I asked him!
