The moment I attempt quickmatching I am immediately given the error "Matchmaking has failed. Returning to the menu." It displays 0002001513, which is not listed under the Ubi support list of error codes. I have verified files, reset my IP, flushed DNS, checked the hosts file, and replaced my router. I normally use the Google public DNS, but have also tried the default gateway as the DNS. The NAT type shows Open. UPnP is enabled. The router UPnP page lists a dynamic entry for UDP Port 3074 while I'm in game.

I have no firewall rules blocking For Honor. It obviously isn't even attempting to matchmake. When I try to select a particular event and find a lobby it will matchmake forever constantly widening the search parameters, even with very high activity. All other online functions of the game such as store, leaderboards, faction war map updates appear to work properly, but I can't actually play.

I played this game back in beta and had no problems with it. This is my first time trying to play online with the full version after getting up to chapter 2.2 in the story. It has been doing this since I first tried about 4 hours ago and all throughout the troubleshooting steps with system reboots in between. I have posted an unlisted youtube video of the problem here: https://youtu.be/R53Z4BcoHYU

Windows 10 Pro Build 19042
i5-8600k
RTX 2070 Super. Driver version 460.89
32GB DDR4 3200

The game is installed on the same 2TB NVMe as the OS, but they are split into two partitions if that is at all relevant.

UPDATE: I finished the Viking campaign and came back to multiplayer for another attempt. Quickmatch is still broken. However, I was able to successfully matchmake for a Battle queue and play three games before exiting. So the game can connect fine if only it was willing to try.
