Same here. Three players in our house…mulitiplayer game with just us and AI disconnects about ten minutes in. The host is always the first one to disconnect, then the others follow.
Same. Multiplayer is going fine, no lag, then the host drops first followed by others. Just playing with three local friends and AI. 300 mbps+ internet connection. Any ideas would be great!
Update: Same thing happens on LAN games so I think we can rule out a server problem. Again…games work fine in single player, for hours.
Ranked Game search and session is working well. No Problem at all. But nothing shows up in the lobby. Did I miss something?
My Antivirus is Windows Defender.
I play the game via Windows Store.
But: In the info box at the right it does show all the servers. “UKwest”, “westeurope” etc.
“Signing into Multiplayer Services”, allows me to cancel but not retry. It disconnected me in the middle of a ranked game without me having any internet issues or any other contributing factors that I know of, then it just gave me the same screen when I tried to access multiplayer services.
Server maintenance for AoE:DE and AoEII:DE is starting now. Multiplayer will be down at this time, but should be complete in about 2 hours. Thank you for your patience during this! We will update as soon as servers are live again.
I am having multiplayer connection issues. I will just randomly disconnect at like 20 to 30 minutes into the game, it will just say that I have lost connection. This does not happen to me in any other multiplayer game. I play League of Legends, Apex Legends, and other online games and I never get disconnected like this and I have a wired ethernet connection. This effectively destroys my ability to play with my friends, which is the biggest draw of this game for me. PLEASE FIX IT!! Or at least make it so that I can reconnect to the game.
When will there be a fix? Also I seem to be unable to install the latest update. My version is 33059 but the newest update should be 33164. “Microsoft Store” --> “Updates” just takes me to the store site of aoe II definitive edition.
Edit: Solved! Guess this was a typical user based issue. I think I hit the wrong button, that’s why it didn’t update.
First time posting. I posted because I have been looking/hoping for a fix ever since I bought the game. I figure 99% of people this happens to don’t post, so I figured I would post so Microsoft can see this is indeed a big issue.
“Disconnected from network” every single multiplayer match I have attempted.
I bought the game around a week ago, and have not been able to play a single successful multiplayer match. Disconnects from server every time.
It’s the only reason I bought the game. To play with friends…
Any updates from Devs? Or are we all just screwed. This is a big issue affecting a whole lot of people. The radio silence from Dev’s on this, does not make me feel good on buying this. It’s broken.
When or if it does ever get fixed, the game won’t be fresh anymore with my friends… So time is important for this fix. I regret buying this game.
