Battlegrounds matchmaking was working great for a day and a half after the patch, then sometime early yesterday evening Eastern Time, no one could get a ready check.
Unlike the issues on PC, we aren't seeing infinite load screens or getting into matches that never start. Console players queue for battlegrounds and never get a ready check.
Because it worked well for a day and a half, and now the game does not even appear to be attempting to make matches, it seems as if matchmaking for battlegrounds has been turned off somehow.

Was something intentionally done which is now preventing matchmaking for battlegrounds on console? If not, are you aware of this issue and how it differs from the matchmaking issues PC players are experiencing?

Until today I've only gotten into 1 Battleground - Almost instant Queues and no "waiting for x players", just took me straight in like i was the last person to accept it (presumably because people, like me, were dcing when they entered and never made it so I was taking a previously filled spot)
The first few days were terrible for me with game crashes every time (game crashes that left me where I was ingame active, so I came back to a dead character next to adds in IC etc)
I am getting ready checks every time, rapidly - I'm not getting into games when I accept them, with the exception of that 1.
You might not be experiencing the dcs or ready checks, but I and others are.

Thank you!
Yeah, why hire testers if you can make paying customers do that..

Fair question. We ask questions like the one I did in this thread as a form of verification to ensure that what our testers are seeing on the live servers is, in fact, what our players are also seeing. We don't want to assume that's the case - sometimes it isn't a one-to-one experience and there are other contributing factors that we need to identify and consider.

You shouldn't assume, you should know if the problem is fixed or not. You have a team and lead devs. You don't push code unless it's good. I understand that in crisis situations you have no choice, but then please stop pushing new content and make the next big version a huge bug fix.
