Re: Titanfall 2 crashes after 2-3 seconds of getting into multiplayer screen

I unknowingly confirmed what the issue is. Have been playing under my own network for years. Switched to Advocate Network yesterday (because I saw. YouTube vid that said switching to the Advocate Network allows you to invite players into games and that seems to help with the Dow issue) and it immediately crashed. Tried going back in several times but the game loads, lobby screen appears for a second or two, then quits to desktop. Being in the Advocate network is the issue and unfortunately, I can’t get out of it as the lobby screen doesn’t stay up long enough to switch Networks.

I tried the following (after experiencing the exact same issue as you did):
I disabled communities.
Launched.
Though it crashed, I did manage to play a game. Right before displaying the final score (when people are leaving already) it crashed. Launched TF2 again, crashed a couple of times but then I was fast inside networks.
It stayed there. Ok. So I created a new Network (saved all info required). It did not appear after save.
I tried (as I did previiously) to choose my private networks and buddies (including Frothy's) and obviously it would not allow me as communities were disabled.
Went on to FAQ and chose networks.
When I went back to the previous menu and open Networks, there it was the newly created network. And already chosen and set as active!!
So, exited Titanfall 2, removed communities_enabled altogether, went back in, all stable. Chose my old networks. ALL FINE.
Problem solved.
Respawn know FULL well what they have been doing to servers and what some "people" have been doing. All this, this is a shame. Titanfall 2, their creation, and a large portion of the community deserved better.
