I did some testing and it does not occur if all players are gone or leave and no one is joining.
Ping was fine till someone tried to join.
Can complete AI match Frontier Defense if everyone leaves and no one joins.
You can play solo.....
I was able to duplicate your tests with Frontier Defense.
As a former software deployment employee someone needs to own this problem.
As a business owner, I would think this would be unacceptable, to have your business clientele troubleshooting the service that they purchased.
It seems we made progress yesterday but it started to fail again towards the PM, MST.
Good luck support people! We are counting on someone driving this problem into the ground.
Best Regards.
