Unable to join ANY multiplayer session

[CScottRacing 0]

Day 2 and it is working again. Was a full reinstall of windows for me after trying everything. Machine was brand new, surprised I needed to reload windows but it worked.

Hello,

I’ve had this same issue where by any multiplayer mode is not accessible. Either I got cannot connect to xxxx player host or just the red background followed by the error after a couple of minutes. This happened to weekly event, leagues, ranked and unranked lobbies but I could access online content and see times. I tested out my previous F1 2019 game, and all features worked fine, so I knew it wasn’t internet problems. Very frustrating.

After a reinstall and update of the game, and numerous router resets I was about to give up on any future online racing till 2021 then I thought I’ll delete all settings in the game menu. That worked! All my character profiles were gone, wheel settings gone, but I could access all multiplayer games. No big deal, I can recreate them, and it still remembered my podium pass, stats and league memberships.

Maybe try this and it might work for you too. Hope this helps.

I am never surprised by this yielding results.

It feels like these kinds of issues should have been dealt with a long time ago.

I had absolutely no problems joining a session until yesterday, since then I'm unable to join any multiplayer session, it's just the waiting screen forever. I had not made any changes on my computer overnight. I've done all the checks and updates since, no success. Of course the Steam family account workaround works, but as I have all my settings and setups (plus contacts) on my main account, I'd like to continue using that. Today's new game update hasn't solved the problem. Any advice on overcoming this would be welcome, if it's possible at all from my side.

Edit: As I was told from the lobby owner's point of view I appear to have joined the lobby but it never loads for me. I get no error code either, just "error, failed to join the session".

Edit 2: Apparently like a previous poster said, deleting all your saves indeed solves the problem. Deletes all your setups too which is a pain, and your trophies that were difficult to get, but oh well. Too much work because of an unexplicable bug that singles out individuals.

I am experiencing this issue also. I'm on PS4. Still looking for a response to this thread(bump): https://forums.codemasters.com/topic/76198-joining-session-error-league/

@joesair

Hello Joe, if you want to race again (most likely) you can create a new profile on ps4 and be allowed to race. It has worked for me and others experiencing this annoying issue.

As for a real fix, I would DM @BarryBL your username on ps4 and say that you are on ps4 like it says in his comment at the top. They are talking with sony and other companies to try and figure it out because this is most likely not our fault and is some strange problem between sony and your account. 

I'm not really sure what is going on exactly but I've been told they are still trying to fix it. I have been unable to race on my main account since late January.

I thought the same thing with regards to another purchase of PS Plus but it worked anyway after I put in a different email and stuff. Maybe it will also work on ps now, Anyway, no problem and hope this problem gets fixed soon

I have had this problem on playstation since January with no fix yet (they are contacting playstation and other platforms to figure it out). I had to DM @BarryBL my username and platform info so maybe you should do that as well. 

If you still wanna race, set up a seperate account on your playstation (takes a few minutes, but you don't need an extra ps plus subscription for it to work) and it should work, has for me and a number of other people with this problem. @JGE83

Good evening everyone, Im sorry, I’m new to this, never had to use one of this forums to solve anything, not because I know but because I’ve been lucky enough to not experiment these kind of inconveniences you are having; but since almost a week I am presenting the issue we all are here for.

context: I play on Xbox (Xbox One S) 

with a DirecTV internet connection based in Colombia, SINCE I got a router replacement from the company, to a (MODEM BRAND: tozed ZLT P10) I am not able to connect to ANY multiplayer session.

I have tried to open ports on the above mentioned router and nothing seems to work, internet is fine, ping is fine. It just does not let me to connect on F12020 

I do not know the version of the update on Xbox, apologies
