Fixed it. I am an absolute *.  SWBF2 is the only game i play. Turns out my gold live membership expired. Two months I didn't notice. I just assumed it was a SWBF2 problem. Oh well.  Laugh at me or with me. Lol.

Hey @panterodactyl666 

I assume that you must be playing on PC, right? Also, have you experienced this problem before or it happened after installing the latest update?

I’m actually on an Xbox one. It started about a week ago so maybe the last update. Thanks so much for responding!  Greatly appreciated!

@panterodactyl666 

Studio is aware that the game has been crashing for many players after the recent update and we're planning to release a hotfix soon. In this situation, I would recommend to wait for more information about this.

I'm sorry if that caused any inconvenience

Thank you for letting me know!  If it helps or just fyi, other players can log in and play on my xbox, swbf2, just not my guy . I can play scenarios.  Not multi .

Thanks again! No worries!

Good day!  Hope all is well. 

Unfortunately, I’m still unable to play multiplayer. 

Same story, click galactic assault or HvV, screen dims and gives me (0x80040900). 

If the hotfix is still coming, sorry, ignore me. SWBF2 is the only game I play. Tiny violin in the distance...

I'm really sorry to hear that it's still happening @panterodactyl666 

Just to be sure - have you tried all the steps suggested by Microsoft in this article?

Good day!

I'm sorry for the long response time.  Unfortunately,   I have tried all of the known tricks or fixes. The RESET the Xbox one didn't even work.  In baffled. 

Just a recap, I've done the 'hold the power button,'  the 'un-install /reinstall ' and the'hard reset or reset Xbox.'

Everytime I click galactic assault or HvV , screen dims 30%, thinks for 10 or so seconds, and error code 0x80040900 pops up. 

In the meantime, I purchased NHL 2019 to fill my swbf2 void.  Well done boys!  Well done!

Oh yeah, thank you in advance for your time.

Hi there. I have been getting the same problem and have been looking for answers to fixing it... was it mentioned SWB2 will be doing a hot fix ? If so does anybody know when. 

I also play on Xbox One. 

Many thanks. 

[panterodactyl666]

I was told the same thing about a month ago. Then EA quit responding.  Ill definitely let you know if I or we ever figure it out.  Good luck!
