party members not getting put into game when host searches and finds game

I will say this up front that this issue has been happening since the beta. I didn't report it before as I assumed it was a known issue. Clearly, the issue is still occurring.

This has happened to multiple of my friends on Xbox. We have tried different hosts, exiting the previous game when finished to main menu, staying in the previous lobby and not exiting, rebooting consoles, rebooting game, and I have personally even uninstalled and reinstalled the game.

Nothing we do fixes the issue. There is no rhyme or reason for it happening as far as I can tell. Sometimes it happens when we are in the after game menu. Other times it happens when we are on the main menu and host is searching. There is no way of replicating the issue as it is completely random.

  • Same problem here. On pc. Sometimes 2 matches and then I have to rejoin. Appears to happen only when I am in party with friends. And another anoying thing is that if you get in next round unharmed the squadleader is someone else. I think a party should be with max 20 players or so. The all get in the game and fill in the squads. After that hhands off and it should stay like that. How can you play together if you have more then 4 people online? We are often with 12 or more in Discord and it is horror to play together.

     

  • It is nightmare. My record is to play 3 maps with friends and then it is stuck

    I have the same issue. PC friend to PC on steam, same home network, mostly it's the party leader who gets left behind and doesn't enter the game. Rarely it's the other member. Has not worked once, I cannot play with my friends.

    Played with someone on the EA App today and same thing happened to them as well. So this appears to be affecting multiple platforms.

    My friends and I are all playing on Xbox. So we have no cross-play members. It happened to me 3 times in a row last night. It's so frustrating.

  • I have experienced the same thing in the beta and today!

     

    I've noticed it's particularly common when I play with a cross-play party, and when we are in the post-match lobby. It will say game starting, and then waiting for party leader. I will stay in the post match screen and they will be loading into a game. I can then leave the party and join them again and it will put me in the game (usually with a queue)
