Maybe it’s just me but it seems that since the update I haven’t had hardly any disconnects.
I know they didn’t mention a fix but perhaps they’ve done some background stuff that’s helped.
Anyways kudos Turn 10…I’ve been able to have long enough sessions to decide to take a break…instead of it deciding for me
Anyone else notice an improvement?
Yes, but I have seen some people still having issues.
I haven’t played enough Multiplayer recently to make a fair assessment, but I did experience this right after the update:
Side-note: Microsoft Azure was down in the UK for half a day yesterday, leaving many businesses without access to Office 365 products. I’m note sure if Microsoft uses similar servers for Xbox Live and Office 365, but it might be related, who knows.
I stopped trying to load different tunes and just settle for being near the back of the field on certain tracks in leagues. Especially if I don’t switch cars in the first 10 sec. I’ve noticed that if the countdown for the start was ticking while trying to load a tune or car would cause at least me to disconnect.
I couldn’t join leagues yesterday afternoon US time…same failure to load message I got last time servers were down for maintenance.
I havent played in a couple days but I did right after the update and disconnected on very first race…So IDK…If something changed it wasnt in the patch IMO.
I have not played since Fallout dropped, and a few weeks before that.
I hope it has improved. i feel like I may not come back if it’s not fixed and it feels like a waste of money.
Well. not a waste, I did get a few weeks of fun career in.
edit: I thought I was the only one getting thrown during a race. Oddly enough, it happens at the weirdest times, like when you’re in a crowd, or if someone bumps against you, it suddenly disconects. I had thought that I was getting reported or banned for things I didn’t do! LOL. They really need to fix that.
In my most recent disconnect I had a healthy lead and got dropped mid-race (footage here).
The folks posting in this thread so far are old school Forza guys.
I’ve only played one night since the content update and ran about 5 races in Leagues and didn’t get dropped at all. not a very conclusive test 
but it was promising. However, I tied to connect late last night and get race or two in but couldn’t connect to online at all. I got a message that I got disconnected but never actually connect to a lobby. Seems like something was down last night.
I also had trouble connecting last night for the start of the ghost league(6pm est) so I assume the server was down for a bit, but after I did get connected I played for a couple of hour problem free
The only trouble I’ve had was this morning 3 or 4 players loaded the next race while the rest of us got dumped to the lobby…but it wasn’t a disconnect
Never previously had any disconnect issues. Now every 2-3 races
this game every day is worse
No, still getting dropped at least half the time.
So I think its safe to say the answer to the ops thread is NO there was no fix in update…Placebo effect maybe but nothing real.
I really am tired of this issue still being around. This has been affecting people since FM4 people… FM4. Seriously T10 get your stuff inline you’re owned by Microsoft for the sake of a god.
