Error 4-0xfff0bdc0 when I try to play multiplayer.

[NiceDays4Ever]

Can't join to any online battles. I can play in single mode, but can't play multiplayer.
When I click to play, I have to wait more then 5 minutes before something happens. And after 5 minutes of expectations I get error [4-0XFFFOBDCO].
Please help me. I have no idea why it happens.

I am, oddly, having the same issue. I tried verifying my files and it seemed to fix it. Did you try that yet?

Just as a clarification to what was happening to me, I'd be in queue for about 45 seconds, get the error, and then could re-queue for what seemed infinite time. The error code only reappeared if I relaunched my game. Unsure if you guys have a lot of info on that.

The game throw me with the error in the middle of a ranked match and then when I try to rejoin it send me the sme error [4-0XFFFOBDCO]. I reestart the game and try rejoin the ranked match and then I have penalty for abandonment. Niceee

I am sorry to hear that you have received a match abandonment penalty.

You can receive a penalty for abandoning a match even if you haven't done so. You could encounter a game crash or be disconnected for some reason. Unfortunately the game cannot distinguish the differences and can only see that you left a match.

There can also be a delay with the penalty being applied to your account, for instance it could be from a previous match you have played.

If you have experienced any game crashes or connection issues then please try the troubleshooting steps in the links below as this may help to prevent this from happening again:
