"You Have Been Disconnected."
I can play the game solo, but when I try to do Quick Play or host/join a custom lobby to play co-op, it takes me through multiple loading screens and sends me back to the main menu with a message stating "you have been disconnected."
I have uninstalled and re-installed the game twice, tried multiple hosts, and even reset my modem and router.

tried offline,custom and public to play missions and when it loads the game up the progress bar stays still while the cat is running constantly.tried numerous times through out the day today and ended up dashboarding it each time.playing on xbox one and had no probs yesterday.Should be more quality control from microsoft side and start fining game companies etc for releasing unfinished or broken products.

Invite Feature on ps4 literally is non functional and 9 out of 10 times the friends only feature disconnects you. You put out a game intended to be played cooperatively without testing the connection functionality?

Playing the game through Game Pass Ultimate I also can't make it through a single multiplayer mission on Xbox or PC without getting disconnected even after patch. The last attempt resulted in lost legendary loot which is frustrating.

I just played Mechwarrior Online a few minutes ago from this post, and My Wifi works fine. Definitely something wrong with the Dark Alliance Software itself, I am not programmer though but this just is quite obvious even to someone like me, please help Devs and make it priority to allow Multiplayer to be playable, I mean this was the main reason I bought the game On Steam in the First Place.

Same issue. Cannot play online. Will connect, but will get disconnected within a few minutes. Got hopeful with a 4.5GB patch today, but still cannot play online. Xbox Series X. Hard wired with public IP from ISP (open NAT). Internet is around 300mbps up and down. Zero issues with any other games. Crazy they are unable or unwilling to fix this. I say it this way because although a lot of us are having issues, there is no mention of this in their "known bugs" section.
I wonder if it's a regional thing. Either they have some isolated hardware issues, or they have a couple of really bad transit paths. Seems like you'd write some form of session QoS into your software, so shouldn't be hard to track down? Once again, mainly baffled that they have not even acknowledged the issue yet.

I just got the new patch and testing. Wifi connection is still not working, and now I am using my Ethernet cable and I cannot join Quickplay Sessions. Please continue working on Internet bugs fixing. I am using Steam on Windows 10. I also have been testing for 1 hour and no one seems to be joining my Public Custom games as well.

Still happening after the patch. I also get booted after hosting a public game and waiting in camp for a minute or two. I cannot play multiplayer at all. I'm playing on PC Steam. My daughter has the same problem and we're in the same house. I can host an invite-only game and one of us will get booted after a few minutes. We're both playing on PC Steam so this isn't a cross-platform issue.
It also doesn't help that you can't re-join a session.

I can agree. My roomate has been having the same issue. I currently play on PC, and I have yet to be able to play multiplayer. Hopefully all of this can be resolved soon. Much love to the game devs still. I know this must be a lot.

I will second what bhimajenkins#09328 said, this appears to be a wireless issue. My wife (on WiFi), good friend (LAN) of mine and I (LAN) play all the time and do not have issues on other games, but when we started this game my wife got disconnected in the middle of 3 separate runs... was about enough for her to stop playing after missing out on loot. I decided to try and hard connect her using a LAN cable and zero issues since since.
My wife and I are on a google fiber 1gig connection. We all play on PS5. I play Bruenor, friend plays Drizzt and wife plays Catti-Brei if that helps.

100% same issue on pc. 300mb upload and download (i'm on fiber). Disconnected constantly on day 1, -oddly, i stayed connected on Day 2 of release and played with friends. Since then i CANNOT stay connected for more than a few mins at most before being disconnected. No error code, not explanation. I can be host, or not be host. doesn't matter what time of day, no disconnect issues with any other games.

I'm really glad I didn't technically buy this game (xbox gamepass for PC). I haven't been able to play any multiplayer since the day I installed it. If I did buy it, I would be asking for a Karen like refund.

I'm on Xbox and the disconnect is happening at different parts or different missions playing with friends. It's not worth the effort to play any longer since it's a disconnect each time I play. How do I get a refund since the game does not work as advertised?

Playing on an xbox one, I get kicked EVERY time I go into a multiplayer game, whether it's quickplay, jost/join in friends, public, or invite only. PLEASE fix this, It's quite baffling you haven't released a patch to remedy.

I am playing on Xbox Ultimate for PC. Campaign is going fine . Tried to play public co-op and got to the end and got disconnected. Checked the server status and internet everything is fine. Went to play another public game got to the end of the mission and disconnected again . I am done . Glad I didn't purchase at full price. I am sure the devs are working on the issue so I am just going to play solo campaign and wait for the update :)

Keep getting disconnected in The Mask of Kelvin Mission the final one in the boss keep saying error code graphics card the funny thing is is I'm playing on an Xbox so I don't have a graphics card to fix but yet this keeps happening this is something that is ongoing with a lot of players and really should be addressed as quick as possible because they're losing out on playing in the continent

Its a wireless issue. I could not at all connect to any online game. I tried to make an Invite Only, Friends Only, Public, quick connect online and it just does exactly what you are describing.
I then plugged in my laptop directly to the router with a CAT6 cable. Works fine. This is not acceptable though as I cannot be attached to my router to play due to its location.
They need to address this and at least offer us some suggestions as a fix.

I'm on a PS4 trying to get connected to one friend. The Friends Menu is supposed to pop up once you're set to Friends Only or Invite only, but neither of us can get the menu up to connect. I'm on wifi, but that shouldn't matter. I've done tons of play online with this set up with no issues and I have a 200mbs fiber connection (up and down).
I had the "You Have Been Disconnected."issue intermittently thru out then it just stopped and left me in whatever session mode I wanted but would never let me connect to my friend.

its seems it has something to do with the ISP or the DFS Channels in a wifi network. Once I use mobile hotspot I can join my friends private sessions. Otherwise on my home Verizon 5ghz wifi connection I get the disconnected message each time

After installing the game on my Gaming Laptop i was able to join and start multi player games at work, after taking it home it gives me the same issue, i have removed the Router , only running to the laptop and it gives me the Disconnect issue, so it has to be something with the Internet.
