Medal of Honor Problems: Connection Interrupted – Are You Affected?

On Saturday I bought myself Medal of Honor for the Xbox 360, so far I have racked up 3 hours of online play, however I am constantly getting an error message which reads “Disconnected – Connection interrupted – The EA servers are not currently available. Please try again later.”

I know that this is a pretty common fault and it has nothing to so with my internet connection (as prior to this I was playing Modern Warfare 2 on a nightly basis), therefore I thought I would get some feedback from our readers to see if they were experiencing the problem as frequently as me.

I would say I received the error message at least 1 in 5 games that I play, sometimes things go fine for an hour or so, or sometimes I go through 15 minute (roughly) spells where I just cannot get into a game.

I have embedded an image below showing the error, it really frustrates me as I want to love this game, but it is impossible when the servers are so unstable.

We have set up a simple poll below to get some feedback on the matter, therefore feel free to answer it and talk about the issue in the comments section below, please state what country/state you are in and if you have found a way around the problem.

How often do you get the "connection interrupted" message when playing Medal of Honor online?

    To get things started, I am playing the Xbox 360 version of Medal of Honor, I would say it disconnects at least ten times if I play for a couple of hours, I have the best broadband speed available in my area (London, England).

    • kirk

      kirk from manchester,
      had the game on 360 for two days now. first off superb, no connections issues.
      until tonight, cannot get on at all, same mesage as you. didnt spend all this money to not be able to play online. i see there is no response from EA on any of the forums posting this issue

    • JDunne

      I have a PS3 version. It takes 20 minutes to get to the change your class page and then i'm waiting maybe another 25 minutes or it may be in infinite to get to play clean sweep.

      Before accessing I can see a over 1000 players online.The only game I can get into is the attack and defend games.

      EA have serious issuies regarding their servers.(Dublin,Ireland)

      i play on pc but it still dont work plus i bought the game today for pc

  • joe

    it use to do this on the battlefield bc2 beta as well so its probably EA

  • Jeremy

    Buffalo,NY- had moh for 4 days with no problems, then i get home from work sunday night and had problems getting on. now i get through maybe one or two games and i get disconnected. same thing was happening with battlefield bad company 2 when i first got it, but after a while the problem just seemed to go away. hopefully it will do the same for medal of honor huh

  • Ellieson

    I dont get any connectino problems but my problem is that. when I sign in to my xbox, all my achievements and contents are there but when I put in medal of honor, I cant unlock any achievements and basically acts as if my profile was newly made. when I turn off my console, everything is back but medal of honor is not in my game history

  • jon

    I've had the game since day one on Xbox and i have seen these error twice. My online friends have experieced this about the same amount. You can normally back in though.

  • chaillac1

    its not just the x box i play on the ps3 and its the same . i finf the real bug bind is that you cant go back and try another format with out closeing the game down then re starting again

  • dean

    i get it to come up with connecting to medal of honor online and it just doesnt load up whole thing freezes

  • Dougienator

    I know what the problem is. You need to trash your 360 and buy a PS3. I havent had any problems what so ever… lol.

  • Jason

    Well I have PS3 and have not been able to play all day everytime i try olay for 3-4 min connection interuppted its real freaking annoying because I did not have a problem the first two days i had the game. Does anybody know what to do

  • James

    I bought this game Wednesday and in 2 days i have managed to play for 15 minutes! every 2 minutes i get an error ea servers are down connection interrupted.

    The game is a joke, how EA can release a game with this many bugs i dont know!!

    The problem is it not only disconnects from the game is causes my xbox live to log out altogether and i cant log back in until ive turned my xbox off, so im turning my xbox off and on every 2 minutes!

    Major disappointment!

  • Joey1123

    This SHIT is so fucking annoying, bought the game and was like wow at the campaign, love it!! try the online get about 3-4 games out of it and then i get this message, i was like, uhmm, this message is following me from Battlefield or what? then i try and join again, no luck at all, quit the game re-start, try again, and it works, but only for 3-4 games again, now i try doing the same and it actually signs me out when i try and select multiplayer and then it feezes and i have to turn PS3 off. am in England – Liverpool, im with O2 broadband, never had any problems with other games, and i want to play online : /

  • capmano

    i have the same problems on my ps3,with a company as big as ea you would have thought it would be sorted out by now,it has something to do with the amount of people online thats why it was ok to start off with as the server could handle the amount playing the game, but now more people are buying and playing online the server is strugling.so sort it out ea you fricking muppets before people get fed up with your games and stop buying them,so annoying.

  • jonathan

    Anyone know how to fix it for ps3? i gets it like 10 times a day and moostly when im in part:(

  • Dean

    i got live just to play battlefield bc2 and its never let me on, then o got medal of honor and its the same has anyone figured it out? its just them that dont work on live for me…my ea games on ps3 are all good… my gamertag is Mc Tut Tut and my PSN is Dean-DJ add me and let me no if u can help thanks!!

  • Bill bryson

    yeah i had this problem and it was exactly the same for battlefield 2 which was by the same makers, i dont go on it that often but when i do it happens every three games or so

  • dollyrb

    have it a week and have not been able to play online yet,total bull****!

  • Drew

    this game is good once you get in it, but its very hard to get in it because of the fucking connection interrupted error.

    honestly, this is the last time i am buyin an EA game right when it comes out. i didnt pay 60$ for the game just for it to sit pretty on the table.

    EA and DICE better get their shit together or else they will be loosing a lot of customers.

  • c3-ScopE

    Porterville,CA–when loading into a game i might be able to play about 1-4min then i get kicked with the same issue they all are having…sometimes it will say i joined and befor the screen gets to the load section that gives you hint info it will go back and give the error..i hope there is a fix soon.

    the worst part is losing all your bonus points, especialy anoying when you lose conection every other match

  • fox

    i have this problem too intersting thins is i have this problem mostly with eagames or ea sport games such FIFA11 and NHL11 i think its EA servers problem

  • tacticalComms

    EA won't loose their customers. you already paid and they have your money and nobody is going to think there are problems before they buy the game such that they would research it and find otherwise. therefore EA will continue to sell units. Furthermore, you will continue to buy EA games because you'll think "man they gotta have this fixed by now!" mean while, time after time, you'll be left holding your @$$ while EA continues to press forward with other mucked up product releases. this is the status quo of a revenue starved economy where product support which used to be a necessary evil has evolved into a non-existent topic of the past.

    • sean

      thank you hindsight man

    • chris1o1

      they wont get money if we tell people not to buy it :)

  • Sean

    this is weird, okay first off I am on a PS3 I use my neighbors wifi. every time i try and play online I get the same message HOWEVER! if I move my set up to his place I can play just fine online? Hmmmm How many of you are using strictly wifi?

    I am pretty much pissed off at this point but there must be an answer

  • RedHarlow

    I have this game for the ps3, got the game on the day it was released. Finished the sort campaign which i really enjoyed but wen ever i try online always get the same message. I havnt even done 10 seconds of online play its very frustrating!!! My freind who lives close enough to me has the exact same problem and we both no we dont have problems with internet because we play all other games online with no problem. I got onto the support page and im waiting for a response!

  • eTilen

  • Anonymous

    NO I PLAY ON PS 3 AND I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS AAHH!!!

  • Anonymous

    in the last message i meant i play MOH on ps3 and i have the same connection prob

  • The Correct Answer

    This happens because: “EA servers are undergoing database replacement. Due to the Battlefield 3 BETA, DICE is now initializing uploads to the database which temporarily stresses connection throughout all networks. Good news, though, Battlefield 3 BETA is still technically unannounced we know it is around the corner. Bad news is, network connections are on the fritz and if you haven’t figured out, Medal of Honor Multiplayer is temporarily inaccessible. I have not been given any set ETA for the MoH servers to be back in working order other than sometime between 9/10/11 and 9/12/11. You may experience short lived spurts of connectivity, but you will be consistently disconnected from EA. ” So basically MoH Multiplayer cannot be played by most people…
