Latest patch broke matchmaking again

[Pinhead Larry]

Since the patch, I can't connect to anyone elses game and nobody seems to be able to join mine. Either I get the classic "Failed to join lobby" or it gets stuck on "Establishing Uplink" forever.

Anyone else having these issues?

I'm not having any issues with quickplay - well, except the one time i was changing menus a bunch while it was doing it's search, solved that by just leaving it alone after I hit quickplay.

Mine keeps toggling between "Establishing uplink" and "Searching for active SOS beacons", can't connect to any games. It was working about an hour ago.

I am also stuck not being able to join anyone. I have tried just about everything from reboots, re installs, trying with and without a vpn, deleting the game guard folder, verifying integrity of files, disabling firewall. I would like to drop in with my friends or anyone, but this is ridiculous that nothing is working after working yesterday morning no problem

Are you using friend codes or just quickplay? Quickplay is working for me.

Friends work fine, but attempting to either join randos with said friend(s) or allow randos to join us often causes one of us to disconnect from the other, and if one of us joins a group of randos the other cannot join that friend as we get the "failed to join" problem.
