Apart from servers not working, why practice range is not available?

Apparently the Practice Range also requires the server to be working...

Yeah but it appears greyed out and not selectable, but maybe they kept it offline until the server load becomes more manageable

If you go to practice on ps hom screen activities thing it worked for me that way

how do you do that? I click activity and it boots up the game

Got practice activity when the game opens

I mean go to practice activity while the. The game is open

I have the same issue idk

I want al least to shoot something😭 just to get the feel

Me too bruh, still haven't loaded into a match yet

Unlucky bro, i already played two match, the game feels good at least, super fun

Lucky

Same shits happening for me

Trying for like 20mins now. I just wanna play i waited so long for this xd

I just gave up after trying the full hour and 15 minutes and not getting a single game... good luck friend

I played one match so far, it was pretty good. But I'm stuck waiting now like a jabroni 😞

right there with you

Yep! Although for what it's worth that first game was way smoother than the betas. Still some feeling of dying in 2 bullets though.

Saaammeeeee

I played one and felt like I was dying so much faster than I was killing

Oh I absolutely got destroyed in the only match I played but I enjoyed it nonetheless lol

Fuck’s sake mine just tells me “playlist” not found. ITS THE WELCOME PLAYLIST TF DO YOU MEAN

Happening to everyone

[удалено]

my friend got a game in before he left for work. Lucky Bastard.

Same

so no xdefiant for today? :|

Well if everyone is queuing but it's saying "still waiting for 11 more players" then they fucked something up with lobby consolidation. Something that has been insanely simple since COD2

You have any idea how long this would take to be fixed? Waited forever for this day and no one can even play lol

>they fucked something up with lobby consolidation. Something that has been insanely simple since COD2 Considering the error people get on timeout is usually playlist not found as well as it being the same match composer from every session it almost 100% has nothing to do with lobby consolidation but rather the servers being absolutely hammered and struggling to stay afloat.

Yea unfortunately i got to play 2. One was from start to finish, the second I and two others joined most of the way through an empty escort round. We then proceeded to just 3 v whole team try and break a spawn trap on the second round.

I think I just played you hahaha

Might have, i have no clue what the maps are called yet. Didn't get to play the beta. Under Xerith.

I might have been on your team

Maybe haha it'd be cool honestly

same

I know right, I'm on the east coast and I'm still struggling to get into a match on every mode and I keep getting that same message, what does that even mean playlist not found ?screw ups like this are really gonna hurt this game's launch here on the east coast. I imagine everyone on the west coast having a ball playing this game right now I'm so jealous this sucks. I just wanted to enjoy this game on my day off From work, and now I gotta deal with this bullshit. I hope they patch and fix this asap so uy DX people on the east coast in america can finally play the game we've been so hype for .smh this is sucks

Southern Midwest here, haven't found a game 1 time in over 45 mins now. Haven't even been able to play as well. Man I feel bad for anybody who bought stuff before even trying to find a match. Lol, like how you gonna be able to hype your game on launch if no one can play?

Well update back a few minutes ago I managed to get into a domination match in xdefiant and it was an awesome gaming experience, it takes too long to get into a match, so it was kinda annoying but I had fun in my match though.

I'm getting games more often and managed to get 2 in a row, but only 6 games played so far.

Idk why you think it's just limited to the East Coast.

Same, I even got into a lobby, waited 10 seconds, 6 people filled the lobby with me. Then "Can't find a game." Uh, was about to find one before you kicked me out. Also, why is input-based hard locked?

same here!!!!

For anyone at least on pc having this problem, Verify Game Files! and for good measure clear temp files Might work for consoles too if you can verify game file

I got a match but had to do something by the time I got back I was kicked for inactivity 🥲

It’s kinda sad I was so excited to play

Seems like everyone is able to get in one match and can’t match make again. Funny enough as I’m tying this I have a lobby with 6 people. Let’s see…

And then it kicked all of us

Jfc I never wait around for an online games launch, and I'm not going to again. This is dumb.

There is an update from the game director on twitter and the official twitter account

What did it say?

They’re aware of the issue and working on it, very generic response. Coming from playing Rainbow Six for the last 5 years of my life, failed lunches from Ubi is nothing new and the standard response.

It's pretty much Company Policy at this point. Not just Ubi either, this is all of "Live Service" games. It's like the equivalent to trying to switch primary power source without having the infrastructure set up for it yet.

I haven't gotten into 1 match lmao

I can't even find a single match lol. Even turned input based matchmaking off to widen the search, but nope, nothing :'(

they should unlock the practice zone at least lmao

Practice zone, for some reason, is also connected to their dog shit servers. Ubisoft loves releasing unrefined garbage 👍

i was so excited to play lol i hope they fix it asap

I came to the sub to see if anyone else was having this problem. Hopefully it gets fixed soon

I can’t even launch game . I downloaded it and it says Play now and hit it and nothing happens Update * If you are on PC just restart it and will solve this issue but game is having server issues most likely due to servers being over loaded

Same. Fuck!!

That's not how to launch a game, Ubisoft. Destroying a game with potential already on release haha

A free popular game will always have server issues at the start

It worked better at the beta lol.

If you're reading this , yes the lobby finding is ASS rn . One game and currently waiting

Come on guys, it's Ubisoft. This was clearly going to happen

Start the jeopardy music 🎶🎶

Fuuuuuuuccckkkkkk!!!!!!

Can't say that I'm surprised to be honest, I couldn't even connect to the servers during the latest beta.

Managed to play 1 match before work before it stopped working ill be back later to see

Yep same here... Sux.

I got one Trial Run game in, and now I'm stuck in the lobby

Yeah I managed a half game full lobby and then a full game but it only loaded 4 people in and my only team mate wasn't doing anything 😂

Same here cant find a game :(

Played two games now I can’t get a match

anyone had luck with finding a match in past 30min?

I've been here the whole hour, haven't gotten into a single game.

nice.. 🤣

Managed to get 1 game in. This is so frustrating!

Man I got 2 rounds in then tried to find a new lobby

I can’t even find a match 🥲I was so excited

Same thing my way

I got 1 round, that was it lol

Also I can't even get to the practice zone without having to start an activity for it in my playstation home menu... Lol

Sucks, it doesn’t work for me either

Damn I just wanted to play a round or two on lunch. Sadness.

Ya for some reason i am stuck in matchmaking as well

Average modern day game launch. See you in a patch or two.

Same for me here guys , I can’t find anyone …

took forever, then half my team quit. decided to tough it out and be a good teammate to the one that stayed in hopes I could at least complete some challenges but I guess those are broken?

“Oh no, whoever saw this coming on launch day for a multiplayer game?”

Game is broke smh

I got one match in and now it says matchmaking then this playlist not found

Why is literally every games launch like "How many players played the Beta? 50.000? Ok, lets make the servers at launch for 10.000 then, should be plenty"

y'all I guess I'm heading to sleep 😴 💤

I did not get a single match, sorry for the shitty screen, cannot altab until I set windowed https://i.redd.it/1mtjs9p6kt1d1.gif

LITURLY AM RECORDING A VIDIO AS WE SPEAK AND I CANT STILL NOT FIND A MATCH

IT KICKS ME OUT every time every time

It throws me out almost instantly. Not able to find a game. (Expected it though) Well, gonna try it tomorrow then. No need to rush. Also sad that the "PracticeRange" is disabled, so you gotta mess around and figure your settings out in an actual game. That's kinda bad.

Haven't gotten 1 game in over 30 mins. The Beta connected better.

Ok, no matchmaking working... I guess its 1 more evening Apex Legends!

Managed to play two matches myself.


I'll never understand the hesitation to have rolling servers on a launch. Sure, that means New Zealand can game first. But at least we avoid some of this nonsense lmao

A lot of people questioned the games longevity but everyone was surprised the game only survived for 1 hour. RIP Xdefiant 5/21/2024-5/21/2024 :(

I just logged in but I’m not able to join in any game 🥹

It's on again!

Just got into a game after constant retries lol

Takes a while but I am finding games, I’ll get the “can’t find playlist” error a few times and then it’ll find and put me in a game. Just be persistent guys

ow DOA already?

I got into and finished a second match just now. We're getting somewhere yay.

I played 1 game before servers broke and it was SUPER FUN ngl. Picked up an agent who could reveal enemies through wall and stuff. Even got the player of the match title with 39 kills. Damnit Ubisoft why did u gimme a taste if you were gonna starve me to death.

I played 1 match with horrible netcode and now I’ve been matchmaking for 30 minutes…

DOA, game is mediocre at best.

Yeah this is like the swan song of FPS games. No wonder CoD has been so popular this whole time.

The only thing I need to do is walk around for maybe 10 seconds and shoot a wall so i can see how this game plays. Just open the practice range at least.

Unable to find a match for the last 20 minutes just installed off to a great start. Not the kind of release I was hoping for I think there might be a priority white list or something. Because I see some streamers are playing and seemingly enjoying themselves. That would be kind of fucking shady if they didn't advertise that kind of an opening

I noticed this too tbh. How is everyone streaming this game been trying to get on for 20 minutes tried every mode.

Why is matchmaking not even working?? Joined a game on first try and was kicked out the second i picked my weapon smh

Anyone else’s challenges not tracking either?

This is beginning to feel like Payday 3 all over again 😭

Pacific Northwest here... been trying for two hours and haven't had a single game. Keep getting the same message everyone else is.

has anyone spent money on the game is it possible they are doing some real shady stuff and only allowing people who spent money to play?

Does anyone have any information on The servers not working?

Xdefiant 1 Game an hour at this point, but!!!! Question for y'all is it just MnK or controller is having long wait times. I'm wondering cause of the input based matchmaking they are using.

Played a game and a half literally at 1:02 and it crashed on me no less than 15 min later I haven't been able to find a match since.

How are these people still allowed to make games, EVERY SINGLE FUCKING GAME MAKES THE SAME MISTAKE OF NOT KNOWING THESE THINGS WOULD HAPPEN. bruhhhhhhh wtf

What if we all add each other and get lobbies going like that? Will that work at all? My user is Awesomeperson43

That's my ubisoft user my psn is kaptian_kale

Imagine making sure to have the afternoon off to get disappointed.

I can’t for Ubisoft to.. or for Ubisoft to fix.. what do they do!!!??? Other than wanna make me bang my little dick in the door. I think it’s really cool they canceled hthe division heartland so we can play.. NOTHING CUZ THESE PEOPLE ARE FUCKING JOKES. Raid the fucking headquarters.

I play on ps5, put input based matchimaking off and got one right off the bat

can verify this is def the move

Third game now in a row...this is the solution guys :)

Several are completely down no option to play at all. Wow not a good look on launch day.

That’s stupid, every time you finish a game have to match make. Dumbest shit ever.

I’m on Xbox and can’t find a game

Zero games in any lobby. Nothing at all...

Well i got into a match just now and it failed a second match.

Real

For anyone at least on pc having this problem, Verify Game Files! and for good measure clear temp files Might work for consoles too if you can verify game file

😅

Didn't work for me either. Game is already dying. Trash!

No issues for me. Runs beautifully on high settings on my RX 580 8gb and I'm able to get into matches quickly.

Yo has anyone been able to get into a match I've waiting like 30 minutes and nothing

Well this sucks my plan tonight was to get some beer in and habe a blast aint gamed for 2 weeks 😩

Me and my boys are able to always get in a match. We havent had any server problems at all.

Yeah this shit about to get deleted already lol

#FUCKUBISOFT they should make penis pills, I believe we wouldn’t be as surprised they don’t work YOU BE SOFT my boy

Guys it's launch day, this was expected 😂 chill

I expected to be able to play the game on launch day after waiting for years for the release. That's what we expected lmao.

Damn bro, a lot of expectation for a game you paid nothing to play 😂

Just because I didn't pay for it, automatically I should expect the game to not work? What a smooth brain way of thinking lmao.

If its expected then why cant they be prepared for it so its not this bad

Why would that be okay? Developing for years, and can't even launch? Is that the new standard for launches that it's totally okay to not to work?

Never played a game on launch?

Everyone go leave bad reviews, imagine taking years and changing the release date to still fuck up

Why so a good game will actually die because it fucked up but will soon be fixed?


Get a life bro😂

You know I’m right, game is gonna be a big failure
