Disconnected from SHiFT whenever I join a game
The multiplayer was fine and dandy a few days ago, but now whenever I matchmake and join a game; it loads in then kicks me back to the lobby, saying that I lost my connection to the Gearbox SHiFT servers. Does anyone else have this issue? I'm genuinely so lost.

Edit: It doesn't let me reconnect either. Whenever I try to go online it says "This feature requires all active players to be connected to Gearbox Software SHiFT."

Yeah been having the same problem today.


Also i found a way to bypass the error of the "requires all active players to be connected to Gearbox Software SHiFT" message when trying to reconnect.

On the main menu just hit esc and don't hit the desktop one pick the title screen option one that will then being you back to the logo aka what you see before the main menu and will say your signing in, it will bring you back to the main menu and then from there you may connect again and get back online etc. IDK why this method works but not the hit go online button, oh well it works, at least it does for me.

Yeah, I noticed it too but unfortunately it doesn't solve my main issue. I really wanna play multiplayer. I have no idea if this is on my end or Gearbox's.

Oh it didn't work for you like it did for me. Well i could get back into MP, sorry this method didn't work out for you.

I can't say for sure even myself, but got feeling its them, mainly cause i know they didn't put much care into the pre squeal or at least when i got around to playing it in late 2022 to mid 2023, i had many connection problems for those servers, so much i had to mention their poor server connections in my review on that title.

But yeah i wouldn't be surprised if gearbox was pouring less support/money into this game. Even tho i wasn't there at the start of this games life its clear even from an outsider that their BL ip kingdom has been falling into the ground lately and even this upcoming movies next month does appear it might very well be yet another flop in the horizon for this IP.

They can't fix a gamebreaking glitch in the DLC why do you think they would care bout this?

They abandoned this game a good while back, everyone suffers crashing on a frequent bases, hell day one had most complaining of poor performance, especially console users who kept having their consoles hard crash multiple times.

this dev is a shell of itself and next game is gonna be even worse, best to just pay the good games 1 and 2.

There is (or was) a gamebreaking bug in DLC3, I'm not sure how exactly it was triggered but if you played Zane you would permanently softlock yourself out of the mission at some point. I assume that's what they're talking about.

Thanks but no thanks. Really rather hear what they have to say themselves if they were to even speak up again. For real why would i go with someone else assuming what they are even on about, as if you knew them or know exactly what is going through their mind.


I get you might of intended to try be helpful but this was something that lacks info to really speak for them in this regard. Even if it turns out your correct with your assumption it still wasn't the best action to take when as pointed out there is very lacking info (lack of specific details) to really put two and two together.

Heck i tried to figure it out myself before asking, going off what little they said and the results were all over the place one post saying this dlc and another post on a different dlc. So asked for more clarity and perhaps clue answer to why this was happening aka why me and you had this problem. Well i say had cause, not sure about you but i still having this issue to this day now.

Was not even being that rude, even thanked them for trying to be helpful on the matter. Dr. Andrew can speak up for themselves, can they not? So yeah explained that they shouldn't voice for another person more so we both don't know what they were fully on about seeing how theres been many reports of gamebreaking bugs from past to sort of present + its just assumption from Funkliner on what Dr. Andrew point even was.


For real don't see anything wrong with what i did i let it out nicely and friendly as anyone could of.
