    I've been stuck doing offline only missions since launch. Every time I try to log onto the online mode's overmap, my hand cursor stops moving, all the mission blips freeze up, and even if i managed to get into a lobby.. the mission video clip plays invisibly and i get an error message.

    Same here. Thinking about calling Microsoft and asking for a refund. They say they are working on a patch but who knows with overkill, they do not support consoles. I believe you can still play with friends though, so i may make a session today.

    It could be just an issue with the digital version. If anyone has this happen with a disc copy of the game, let me know so i can narrow down my suspicions as to the cause. i'm gonna see if messing with my NAT settings helps.

    From the official Facebook page:

    Heisters! We’re aware that a number of players may experience issues with the XBOX One version of PAYDAY 2 Crimewave Edition. The cause has been identified and we’re working on an XBOX One console update to rectify it. The team is currently testing the patch.

    If you remember, they promised updates on the X360 version which weren't delivered until 18 months later. I do still believe you can play in a private party though, if anyone is interested.

    Oh and I have 105 Mbps down and an open NAT and still have problems.

    Public lobbies do occasionally work. For some reason, I have found that the Big Oil heist always works.

    Will Overkill release a patch in a timely fashion? Who knows?

    Overkill said they were aware of the issues when trying to join games (aka matchmaking) and were coming out with a patch within the week/next week i think?

    They tweeted it or had a fb post or something.



    But anyways you can do premade parties and play w/o issue for now until the patch hits.

    You can play with friends, but it isn't hassle free.

    Essentially Lav and I have relied on one of us getting through the freezes of crimenet to get a single heist. I invite him and we are set. After that you are grouped together until you break it off and every time you go to pick a new contract you are in crimenet.offline which makes finding the next contract much easier.

    Same issue here. Another separate issue is that I'm bloody awful at this game. Fun though.
