Title : Friends list joining option error
Description :I just found that after I unsuccessfully connect to a friends game the option to either try to rejoin or join another friend does not appear
Proof : None, you'll have to take my word for it ![]()
Step by step of problem :
Workaround : exit to main menu and re-enter the join with friends (sometimes requires a restart to re-open option)
I have also had the highlighter that shows you which name you are currently scrolling over disappear ![]()
( I'm not sure if this is due to be fixed in the current batch of fixes they are working on but it's blooming annoying nonetheless

Probably be best if you start a new topic saying "Connection issues" and then explain what your errors are and what your setup is?
IE Router (make, model) wired, wireless, ISP (Internet service provider), NAT TYPE (and other Network info can be found under Settings on the XMB) if known what games work online if any?
Basically as much info as you can provide and then some soul on here maybe able to help you....
Then again it might not be a problem your end but a problem with there servers in which case try again later :-)

Go wired man , I havent had lag ,freezes , disconnects or been unable to connect to EA online at any time so far . Are you using AOL by any chance because they are awful and from what I have read people with these types of problems are all with that dreadful company .
Me too. I've had one freeze and one disconnect from a game, that's not bad considering how many hours I've been playing so far. I'm with BT Broadband and they seem to be very good with online gaming. I'm wired all the way baby!
Title : Running people over in cars sometimes doesn't work
Description : Driving a car full-speed into people and they just go straight through me as if they were ghosts. I even went around for a second pop and ran over the same guy twice but still he lived.
Proof : It's in the pudding. ![]()
Step by step of problem : Drive full speed at someone who is standing still. During many games I kill such people using this method, but tonight during this one game they just wouldn't die. Definitely a collision detection problem, either that or some strange kind of server lag but the game was playing fine otherwise, my bullets didn't fail to kill people in the same match.
Workaround : Get out of the vehicle and shoot them! But that's not the point.
