Help! Failed to retrieve data

sethamphetamines · September 12, 2019 7:00AM

I have EA Access, I downloaded the game, I even pre-ordered it, but every time I try to search for a multiplayer game, or try to enter a dressing room I get a Failed to retrieve data error.

I made through all of NHL 19 without any issues, but I cannot get into any games with NHL 20. Xbox btw

Delete Saved Game Data and restart. Happened to me too.

sethamphetamines · September 13, 2019 1:19AM

Thanks for the suggestion but it still didn’t work.

I’ve deleted my save data locally and on the cloud.

I’ve deleted and redownloaded the game.

I’ve confirmed my Nat is open.

I’m not sure what else I can try.

Same problem here :(

sethamphetamines · September 13, 2019 4:17PM

Still having issues after official release.

I deleted the game again and re-downloaded it through the MS store, instead of the EA Access app after it officially released, I still cannot connect to any multiplayer lobby.

I'm downloading NHL19 again to see if I can play multiplayer in that game.

Don’t have a solution for you @sethamphetamines, but this issue is being actively investigated.

sethamphetamines · September 13, 2019 6:00PM

Thanks socair. I’ll report back after I get home from work today about whether nhl 19 still works (it did on Monday or Tuesday this week)

I also want to add I’ve tried playing on my other account in nhl20 and that also hasn’t worked.

Stupid question, but can you login at someone else's house under your account? I am just wondering if there isn't a messup or issue with your account. On the other hand, I guess if 19 works that would confirm if that's the issue or not.

sethamphetamines · September 14, 2019 12:50AM

So now I’m very confused....

NHL 19 has no issues joining a game.

I flipped right back over to NHL 20 and still can’t connect.

I hope it gets fixed my guy.

For anyone else with this issue that hasn't seen it yet:

a few years ago when i couldnt play due to this issue it was a router issue with IPV4 and IPV6...but i thought they worked that out.

Did you try going wireless?or a different router?

Not much I can do on this front. I only have one router, and it only supports IPv4

Have you tried this? check out page 11 it looks like if you have a second controlled signed in, that could the reason why you are getting the error

Try logging into a sub account and see if it connects

I do indeed have a guitar hero usb dongle plugged into my Xbox. I’ll try that when I get home.

I have tried that already with no luck.

sethamphetamines · September 17, 2019 12:26AM

Guitar hero was indeed the problem. If anyone else hasn’t seen it yet, make sure you don’t have any other type of controller plugged into your Xbox.

How come your profile pic is blank and not the easports logo like most devs use on here?

Glad to hear it worked out @sethamphetamines, hope you can enjoy the game now.

Asking the real questions! @NHL_ONL_Producer rumour has it that you don't have a profile picture because you are better than @NHLDev, is this true?

Wow, I never would would have guessed that dongle would cause an issue. Great catch by the ONL Producer.

No, just never gave it too much thought, I don't post too often, so maybe that's why.
