What error are you getting: Stuck on the ship loading screen after selecting your data centre and pressing play. I can play in the mornings (AEST pre 12PM but not after 3PM)
I am just going to say this one time. It is kind of messed up that you release a beta that had no hiccup in its connectivity. Then when the actual game is released to the public it screws the people that have slow internet connection. Also I have read and did the steps for slow connection and it still did not work. I know what the problem is because I ping tested my internet when I started to play titanfall and the MS the packets were traveling were doubled and internet times out. So that being said I hope you can create more servers or stabilize your current ones.

I was thinking the same thing. The beta gave absolutely 0 problems and the full game is just giving me small tastes because I can only play a match or two before it crashes.

any form of update EA?

No response from either EA or Respawn. The almost inifinite screen is seems to be caused due to its actually connected to an Microsoft IP and waiting ....

What error are you getting: after pressing 'play' the game brings up a 'matchmaking' screen and runs through it a couple of times. Then it takes me to the 'ship' loading screen, where the dial in the bottom right corner spins once or twice then freezes. I have then sat for up to 10 minutes before it tells me the connection was lost. Been trying this for 2 days now. I have uninstalled the game 3 times now. I have opened all the ports on the router that I have been advised to. I have an excellent internet connection and speed.

This makes perfect sense if you think the problem is server overload. During Beta there was no issue, but once they went live it very quickly became apparent that the servers weren't up to the task. The reason for this is simple economics. If you predict usage to be between X and X + 5, for instance, then it makes much more sense from a purely financial perspective to cater for X. If you cater for X+5 and only get X then you've spent more on infrastructure than you needed to. If you cater for X but get X+5 usage, no big deal. You can always upscale things to meet demand, and even if the customers are upset, they've already spent their money so why worry?
