Hi, @killsSeeker 

 

Try rebooting your network and power cycle the console. Let us know if that helps get this fixed for you.

 

Reboot the power to the modem/router

  1. Unplug the power cable from your modem/router for 5-10 minutes to refresh the network.

PS4:

Power Cycle

  1. Touch the power button on the front of the PS4 for at least 7 seconds (until the system beeps twice).
  2. Turn it back on after 1 minute. Launch the game.

What type of router do you have and if you log into it, does it have the latest firmware update?

I have the same problem with the Xbox one s, after each game I have to load back into the main menu because if I try to ready up it says that the party is not ready. Nobody else is in the lobby.

This is the Party Not Ready bug still unresolved since launch. 

https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Party-not-ready/td-p/7423180/highlight/false

 

My guess is it's some kind of auth token expiry issue, it does not happen to everyone but when your account stuck in this state you are just unlucky as rest of us.

To reproduce is easy, if you are in a game/training mode, longer than a period of time (3-5 minutes), the next game matching making will stuck at Party Not Ready. 

 

The current community discovered work arounds are:

1) After every game, press PS button, go to Settings -> Network -> Tick off then on -> PS button go back to Apex -> X to Retry, you will have to re group if playing with friends every time.

2) Set your PS console's IP address to DMZ in your router (does not work for me)

 

I can assure you there is nothing wrong with your internet provider, your console, or your router. It happens only to Apex but unfortunately to play this game the only way is using workaround on our end until they fix it.
