Hey man, I've been having this problem since the bad patch. The solution I found is to connect directly to games through the server browser. It's the advanced search option in the mode select.
Hopefully, this will be fixed within a few weeks (on the optimistic side) Good luck.

u/Braddock512, Hello. Did this hotfix release include an Xbox client fix? It has been stated inconsistently, and I now can't see it mentioned by Jaqub in the post on the official forum. There, it instead says "general client fixes" (or similar), with no further clarification.
What was Xbox specific, and was that fix included today?
Or maybe u/PartWelsh

Thanks! I think there is some confusion because you mentioned Xbox stability improvements in the post on 1.1.
Hope you had a good flight!
The crashes we were seeing prior to the update were happening mid round vs. happening in the loading screen. This is a new behaviour and so with this in the way it’s though to measure how effective that fix was.
Could just be bad servers. We are looking into it.
(Was watching Breaking Bad on the flight - almost finished with it!)
XBox, it's a known issue for almost two weeks now and the hotfix contained stability "improvements" for Xbox which many assumed to be a fix of the constant crashes during the loading screen.
Well, it's still there.
Just landed back in the UK and had a quick call with the team to get caught up.
It appears that the issue is specific to Xbox, and it’s the crashes during the loading screen that we’re investigating right now.
I’ll work to keep you updated here and via Battlefield/EA Help Twitter

Read moreSometimes some users get a significantly larger download, about the size reported during the "Preparing" phase, but it's actual download. Here is an example from the previous patch posted by another user here: http://www.wduwant.com/index_uploads/uploads/bafc50bdcd.jpg
I've been affected by this myself a few updates ago where I got a 30GB download instead of 10GB; a friend of mine also had the same happen twice in a row. From what I've read it can also happen that Origin says the download is ~60GB but then it becomes smaller after restarting it.
Yeah some folks find that if you cancel the download and then right click and select ‘Repair’ from the tile it sometimes works out slightly faster (plus triple checks your files are in order)
The update isn't live for another 45 minutes on Xbox.
Actually it only really matters for people without SSDs... it's checking files and not actually downloading anything during this phase, the download is only 3.3gb.

Morning Folks -
Unrelated to today's update, we're adding in both Narvik and Devastation to Squad Conquest today. This should be available shortly after maintenance concludes.

Was the patch QA'd before it was released? If you saw it now, how was it not seen then? Not trying to be a dick, genuinely curious.
It was. Regardless, it being missed isn't in line with our standards of Quality and we're reviewing our processes to make sure this doesn't recur.
Hi folks -
Tomorrow, we’ll be deploying a Hotfix across all 3 platforms to address critical issues that emerged following last weeks update. In this post you'll find a summary of what we've been able to fix, and what we're still working on, the patch notes in full from Jaqub and the development team, and detail on when to expect the update relative to your platform and timezone.
This update looks to significantly reduce the number of stability issues experienced on Xbox (Edit - Please see this update), and rectify the Hit Registration issues that have been experienced across all platforms. During testing, we discovered that Hit Registration wasn’t only impacting Planes, but all aspects of combat in the game, and this update should restor...

When he gets flight over for private showcases and events, when he gets early footage and goodies to feature in his videos or when he gets whatever other advantages that can be... that is retribution.

Where do you thing that budget comes from at EA? Sponsoring, mate. For EA, he’s just a marketing tool, nothing more. That’s why it’s funny to see him call them “his good friend at DICE”.
Given that, I’m not saying he has a contract with EA to say good things. Just that he can’t be too much critical if he wants to keep “his good friends”. Ask LevelCap about it. He got kicked out of the GameChanger program because of his bad reviews on BF1.
That being said, maybe he’s honest anyway, But most likely not. That’s the very definition of a shill. He’s the king of them and that’s a fact.

Read moreHere's another uncommon bug that wasn't on the main post u/partwelsh
That's an odd one. I wonder if it was related to the lean?
Thanks regardless, have shared with the team.
Thanks. Last active class would do. Male/female selection toggle would do. Just something would be better than the current state.
Do you mind if I screenshot this into a post so that more people can be updated on the issue?
If I wasn’t, I wouldn’t post it. Thanks for helping spread the message.
That’s class no joke. Especially cause he trashed you guys pretty hard at the end of the post.
You’re a good man PartWelsh.
Regardless of how folks feel it’s my job to help get improvements. As daft as it sounds, my job is easier while you’re all talking, irrespective of what’s fueling it. I want us all to get to the day where we’re just on here posting memes about the game and showing off your best moments, rather than the meme just being how you feel the game is.
Me and the team are in this for the long haul.
u/partwelsh Hi.
Hi.
u/partwelsh has this been forwarded to the team yet?
Yup. A few of the team actually got to it before me too. Will follow up if I can, but for the most part we will discuss what changes we’ve made via Patch Notes.
I appreciate the tag and OP for putting it together.
u/PartWelsh Can you shed some light on why are tankers and pilots locked to female?
That’s just how they were implemented for the launch of the game. I’ve asked the team about what we might do with the role. My personal preference (Edit: Whilst we get to a better solution) would be to just remove it but as far as I understand it’s got some technical dependencies that make it not quite as simple as that.
To develop a system that lets you customise it (including appropriate menu configurations and UX considerations) is as complicated to implement as removing them altogether and just allowing last active class to use them.
It’s not an unknown sentiment. We are looking at it.
What a fq BIG lie .... they knew this from begging , go f...68777 Dice liars
Al Sundan was 100% playable at EA Play. There’s hours of footage of It on YouTube. The delay is unfortunate but not intentional. There’s no value in us lying to folks, we want you having fun playing the content we made. That’s all there is to it.
