Beta tests for games are expected to have in-progress issues. Just like Battlefield 1 open beta, it has server outages. Electronic Arts said that the problem may be due to the removal of cables from a server during the 'Call of Duty World Championships.'

Gamers from Europe, North America, and South America were unable to get in the Origin Servers of EA games. The players reported to have issues connecting to EA games on Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, PC and Mac. Users from South Africa claimed to have experience struggles logging into 'Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare 2.' According to Venture Beat, other gamers complained on Twitter and Reddit that they are unable to play Battlefield 4, Madden NFL 16, or the FIFA. EA Games such as Star Wars: Battlefront, The Sims, and others that need online services.

According to Gamespot, players are complaining because there are failures in connecting to the servers of EA. Notifications on their screen show the text "Failed to connect to EA online". Since Battlefield 1 is an online-only multiplayer beta, problems such as these will give players a major struggle. Apart from Battlefield 1 beta, there are quite a lot of EA games that have also experienced issues. EA Support Twitter account has answered the reports saying that they are experiencing outage; as a result, EA games, services and support are impacted and that they are working on it as fast as they can.

As soon as all the issues have been sorted out, EA tweeted about the situation. However, there was no official statement that was released regarding the whole situation. It was believed that some hackers have something to do with the problem.
