Hi,
I just picked up this game over the weekend when it was sale. I noticed I ran into this screen while trying to join random games. Any reason why it just sits there and says communicating? Also, from reaving previous messages on this forum board is it working as intended?
Thanks,
Theres bugs in the netcode where essentially it tries to hook you up with players you can't connect to, and then it just stalls instead of timing out. It's a NAT issue to some degree, but then even with those fixes it doesn't always work. Just have to find a person on your origin (I assume on PC), attempt to join their lobby then cancel it at the char select, or just restart the game. It's dumb.
Or it maybe trying to find you a game, but it can't, because you might not have all the DLCs. Make sure you have them all downloaded.
Could be it hasn't found a game (sometimes matchmaking is lame), but sometimes your comp fails on the initial connection and it just stalls. Typically I'll just cancel if it doesn't find one in a few seconds and try again.
Is it only happening occasionally? If so it could be trying to connect you to matches on FB Condor. It's a very common bug with that map.
It's trying to tell you that you've got extra time to finish that spliff. Maybe grab a bag of Doritoes while at it for munching into the mic afterwards. If you're still not in game afterwards, don't worry. You'll fall asleep and auto system shut down will take care of EA for you.
Also, from reaving previous messages on this forum board is it working as intended™?

And... Yes.
I have all the downloadable content...
Yes, this game's netcode is allergic to good connections to games. Sometimes it so thoroughly relishes giving you no game at all!
But at least the netcode isn't sneezing and covered in hives. And really, isn't that all that matters?
The answer is "No."
Often it's because two players are more or less incompatible : try joining someone else. I've got two friends who cannot join each other and I always have to host and leave when they want to do a duo 
On PS3 UPnP affects player compatibility (basically kicks you out as soon as you enter the loading screen). So make sure UPnP passes the PS3 internet connection test every now and then. If not, reset router and it should pass the test next time... until your router starts malfunctioning & terminating connections again...
