Launch Multiplayer (Locked)

It says contacting "respawn contacts" and searching for data center. Any ideas on what is going on?

MP servers are busted since last quarter of 2021, use Northstar instead.

My Data center shows nothing.

[FallenReaper]

I am going to uninstall and reinstall it to see if anything changes. Right now it does'n't give me anyway to change my server.

[FallenReaper]

Nothing changed still

[ONDIER]

Nothing will change. EA is selling this even though the servers haven't worked in a year. You'll have to bypass the traditional servers with Northstar to play MP at all, but get ready for the biggest hack-festival you've ever witnessed.

Try this, it worked for me and it took 5 minutes!
"Press Win + E or open File Explorer, right-click on “This PC,” and choose “Properties. Click on “Advanced System Settings.” Under the Advanced tab, choose “Environment Variables.” Under “System variables,” click on “New.” In the “Variable name” box, type this: OPENSSL_ia32cap In the “Variable value” box, type this: ~0x200000200000000 Then click on “OK.” Confirm the addition of the variable to the “System variables” list and choose “OK.” Then Restart your computer."

Because Valve approves scams on their steam platform.
