[2020] PS4, “Validating Multiplayer Privileges” message


Original Post — Direct link
Everytime i start a quick/ranked/unranked/ training grounds match or even invite a friend, it says Validating multiplayer privileges then it goes away and nothing happens, sometimes it says leaving party,but no error message, nothing at all as if i never pressed the button, i tried restarting the game and restarting the ps, i tried changing networks and dns servers, i even tried using my friends user on my console and nothing worked, there is no fix on google and i dont know what to do, and i saw an article where someone said they tried to reinstall it and it didnt work so thats useless too

Hey Ahmedmk11,

Thanks for reaching out to us, welcome to forums and I am sorry to hear about the issue you ran into.

Just to double-check, do you have PS Plus membership active? Also, do you have your PS4 system activated as primary? To do this, just go to Settings > Account Management > Activate as your Primary PS4.

Let us know!

PS Plus is needed for online play. Without it you would be restricted to just the single player situations.

Yes an active PS+ subscription is required in order to access online multiplayer on PS4.

Hey there.

If you have an active PS+ subscription can I ask you to attempt the final 2 steps suggested here please.

Hello VictorTF142,

Thank you for getting in contact with us and thank you for this helpful information.

On your second account you play on, do you have a PSN Plus subscription you pay for or is it tied to your first account?

- I have PS Plus
- Its affecting all accounts on my ps4 (and my account(s) on friends Ps4(s))
- My internet is fine for other games and applications (So not a connectivity issue)
- I do not have the ability to re-install the game (I wouldn't anyhow seeing how others have done it and still had the same problem)
- The game is not installing or updating (seeing as how you can't even select any of the things if that's happening)

I still haven't been able to play since the launch of this season. I am starting to doubt if I will be able to at all.
Hey there,

At this stage I can confirm that we are currently investigating this but I have no further updates currently. Thank you however for all the details you have provided as they will be very useful for the team
