 Kept checking this thread to see if anyone has sorted this problem... nothing

I just love how Bioware seem to be spending more time and effort in keeping players who have working games going with weekend challenges here and challenges there, and yet not s single F**k is given obout us, the players who cant get into games or even complete a game... bad customer service guys... games becoming more of a S**T hole by the day

I was able to connect until today, which is quite frustrating. I agree with the person above. Nothing answered. F**k EA servers.

I don't know the mechanics of how it works, but if they have multiple servers, and users get sent to the nearest server but that particular server has issues, I could see why you'd consistently have connection problems. Don't know why they haven't corrected them, just that I see how the problem could happen.

I've had fairly good connections, but on these weekend challenges, the servers take a hit and connectivity goes out the window. When I do get a game, it tosses me, or the leader, 2-6 waves in.

I actually wish they'd stop with the promotional weekends. It's like they are doing it to load test the servers. Something that should be done before it goes live >.<

The whole point of this promotion is to have people promote characters, but now it is difficult to stay online long enough to earn any experience points.  Their promotion is destroying itself. :blink:

Tell me about it. On a good day, you might get a team that shapes up into a decent group after several matches together. No chance of that tonight. I'll be happy just to get through a game.

And then you connect to a game lobby where some nitwit is belching loudly into his headset like a numpty. No player mute, short of killing the game sound entirely, so I back out of the group.  One guy sounded like he was having a psychotic break on an open mic. Backed out of that.

Not really a connection issue, but it's nothing I'd care about if it didn't take 15 minutes to land in another game. Only to get a connection drop 1/3 of the way through. <_<

All EA needs to do to fix this issue is to stop being greedy and increase the bandwidth available in my opinion, because this seems to only be happening to me at night after 19:00 EDT. Those lucky enough to get priority on their bandwidth will be able to enjoy themselves until then. I suspect player volume increases significantly during this time as most of the United States is either home from work are coming home from work.

I have had this issue for sometime however I fixed it by setting my network card to give EA Core Server Application priority 1 to my Bandwidth over all other applicatons. I have now gone from getting kicked about 90% of the time to 0% of the time and I am now able to join games other than my friends where before it would just sit there saying connecting when joining other peoples games. My network card is a Bigfoot Network Killer, I hope this helps other PC users.

Aside from being thrown out of games, what is the crap with the game desyncing with the servers outside of matches? First store purchases fail to process. And then soon after you can't join or create games. Then when you restart the game, of course the credits you tried to buy with have vanished. Stupid things like this just shouldn't happen. I've lost two Spectre packs to this already, meaning at least a couple of hours of gameplay since I've been playing Bronze to level my characters after promoting them for Raptor. How can the game make the credits disappear if it can't process the purchase so that you'd actually get the stuff, too? It makes zero sense.

Sick of these issues (these connection issues, Vanguard bug, and a few dozen others) that don't seem to be addressed in any shape of form. I guess I really do need to play something else instead of wrecking my nerves with this.

I mentioned this problem on the Mass Effect face book page and they asked if I told EAhelp about it... thought about replying 'no but I don't stand in the rain to dry off after taking a shower either'. On a different note I actually talked a friend into buying this game (he never played ME1 or 2 but loved the multiplayer demo) so now what, I can't even play it with him. Plus it's really frustrating having to work five or six times longer than usual (due to disconnects) to get a random reward.

Lots of random dcs today. Weird. Also, in one game, we completed a wave and the next never started so everyone left game. xD

5 of my last 6 Spectre packs have all had the glitch where it takes my credits but doesnt show me what I got. This is getting lame. When it was happening on the lower level packs and when I did not have tons of weapons I did not mind, because it was easy to see what I got. Now it is near impossible unless I keep a detailed inventory. And I am not going to do that. lol Fix this crap already. Game has been out almost a month and this is STILL going on.

not much else i can add that hasn't already been said.

I'm also have a hard time connecting (sometimes up to an hour), and staying connected.

Also, i don't know if it's a glitch or what but in a few matches i have found myself floating above everybody else, and unable to move or anything. I just quit the match and take a lose on whatever credits i earned or ammo power etc. i used pre-match

UPNP enabled = Drop during wave 10/11 on gold. ALWAYS. So i would think editing the first post would be in order, given the fact that this advice is totally wrong.
So disabling UPNP does seem to reduce drops alot, but when its disabled you cant join your friends games. So either you play public and hope for a team that isnt full of newbies who can only survive on bronze or you enable UPNP, play with your friends and never get any reward because you will always get disconnected.
It's not like a few people have it. MOST people have that problem. So fix it already damn it. Theres not even a single post or reply to this issues by the developers from what i've seen. :innocent:
Ignoring the problem completely will obviously make it dissapear on its own somehow.:wub:

 I just love how this is on its 25th page now with description after description of what players are encountering, and not a single BioWare Admin coming forward with a explanation to why this is happening... or even a fix in the form of steps or a patch.

This F**K UP they call mutiplayer is a bigger problem than the ending to single player.....

Man, I don't know what it is but it seems like I can't play silver without disconnecting by about wave 8-10. It's just frustrating since apparently I can play Bronze all day with no d/c but lord help me if I want to step up a level.

You can play bronze, because it takes less time.

Seems like a lot of guys are still getting disconnected from silver games. My last 4 out of 5 silver games had me dropped into wave 4 or 5 of ongoing games, usually in a spot surrounded by bogeys.

Haven't been able to finish any games for about a week. The only way I can actually earn anything is by failing the mission half way through.

It's pretty sad that every time I start a game I'm hoping that everyone will die around wave 5 or 6 so I can at least get some xp and credits.

This is a shame, of 200 games played, I managed to finish 30th. If your game does not work, change the ****ing rules. If we break at the end, after 10 waves give me my credits and experience. And, my computer is not wrong, I play RIFT, LOTRO, WoW and SWTOR with no problems.

Yet another complaint about the "communicating..." . I really enjoyed the demo, so even thou there were some of these issues on the multiplayer i supposed Bioware would have it fixed for the release.. well surprise... I really enjoy the multiplayer yet i cant find the will to play it because i get disconnected from 75% of the matches. This happens with my net still working etc... Well at least give us somekind of reward per wave or something, because even thou that doesn't solve the disconnects and losing the bonus for completing the map, at least we get something for the 20 minutes we played.

All this has already been said but I hoped that my reply would somehow help.
I love the game and I want to be able to play it. Please let me!
