Connection to server timed out

Everytime I try to play multiplayer it gives me a 10 minute loading screen then takes me to the main menu and says connection to server timed out. I had this same problem in Titanfall

As of yesterday 11/2 8pm EST I am having the same issue.

Platform: Xbox One

Is this patch across all platforms or just the PC version? After hours of attempts and modem, router and Xbox restarts I have had no luck with having a stable multiplayer game yet alone not being kicked back into main menu with same "Connection to server timed out" error. Please advise, thank you.

AFAIK that patch was PC only.

Try just power cycling your console and router and then retry.

The steps here may also be useful:

Product: Titanfall 2
Platform: PC

Summarize your bug :

Server times out before I get past the loading screen.

How often does the bug occur?

Every time (100%) if loading a different map than the last one played,

Never (0%) if I get to play the same map twice in a row.

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves?

Run Titanfall on a low-end pc, basically, try to get a 30 seconds loading.

What happens when the bug occurs?

Once loaded, I get the "Error, connection to server timed out"

What do you expect to see?

The dropship sequence.

Details on what truly is happening:

I think the game isn't waiting for me to load the game. I have a low end PC, and it takes me 30s to load a map. The time out threshold is probably set to something lower than this.

The only way I get to play is to pick the same map twice in a row (if i'm lucky) so that the second time, it's still in memory and I can connect before the server is tired of waiting for me.



Seriously, let the players load before kicking them out! (I play with low settings so I can't even reduce the quality to load faster.)

  Same here. I can run titanfall, that's for sure, but it won't let me play multiplayer. The server just starts dumping information into my router so fast that I get the equivalent of a low-scale DDoS attack (A.K.A: UDP Flood). In English: my router can't handle the flood of information and crashes. Is there anyway I can limit the stream of info?
