keung Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 (edited) When I try to play this game online, all I get is a message saying "You have lost your connection to the MONOPOLY Streets Servers." I've tried several things, restarting router, restarting xbox, downloading DLC, clearing cache, deleting save, playing another EA game online first (Army of Two: TFD), but nothing seem to work. Does anyone have this problem? This is quite frustrating... Edit: I also dl'd the EA Sports thingie and that also connected fine to the EA Servers. What the crap? This game is balls >_> Edited August 23, 2011 by keung Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12ozkrue Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 i just tried as well, i'm gonna look around and see if they shut servers down, i didnt hear anything but oh well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keung Posted August 24, 2011 Author Share Posted August 24, 2011 Apparently they haven't. I was supposed to boost the online achievements with another guy from the UK, and he said he could connect to the servers. I've also seen another person on my friends list recently play it online. I'm starting to wonder if it's at my end or if there's something really messed up with the online portion of this game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semp Pi Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 I'm also having the same "cannot connect to EA servers" error message. I cannot edit my EA profile in game either. I found this thread on ps3trophies http://www.ps3trophies.org/forum/monopoly-streets/107000-ea-servers-not-available-3.html It suggested "re-linking" your profile to EA using another title, suggesting NFS:Shift2, NFS:undercover, Dead Space 2, Madden12 demo, etc. I've tried Madden12 demo and NFS undercover and neither work to resolve the problem. Anyone else have any luck fixing the problem with another title or through another method? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keung Posted August 24, 2011 Author Share Posted August 24, 2011 Do you guys own the retail version or the games-on-demand version of the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semp Pi Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Retail Version. I just also redeemed my online pass for NFS:Hot pursuit and raced a game to see if logging in with my email that way would fix it. It didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keung Posted August 24, 2011 Author Share Posted August 24, 2011 Okay, I have the on-demand version, I was afraid that was the problem, but if you have the retail version I doubt that's it. I've posted on the EA forums, in addition to TRYING to contact EA through their costumer support system, but even there I get an error message. Hopefully I'll get a response on their forums. I'd try live chat, but all I ever get out of that are standard nonsense responses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rican21 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 i think i have a trick to get the servers to come back up create a local game than quit ,,, than try xboxlive see if it works .. it worked for me so try it neverr hurts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronnie42 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 They claimed it was down to my router but strange how every other game seems fine except battlefield 1943, monopoly, even bad company 2 has server problems where it tells me I lose if I win. Ea servers seem to have been messed up for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamfam9598 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 I too had the same issue where it tells me it cannot connect to EA servers. I have Verizon Fios Internet with a router/modem unit. My in laws have a different ISP and they have separate modem and router. At first I loaded the game at their house and got the same error I got at my house about not being able to connect. I plugged their xbox directly into the modem and bam it connected right away. I would assume it is conflicting with the router settings but I cannot be sure. I do know that this seems to be the only way I can get this game to connect online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronnie42 Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Well I don't see why I would need to perma have a wired connection but they really need to fix their servers. Spent a hour or 2 on that annoying live chat thing, at the end they tried suggesting a refund, a discount for origin............ Now I'm forced to wait till my game redownloads, I have still got nowhere with this game online. Ea couldn't even test their own servers which worrys me a lot but they have told me they have forwarded it to the developers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keung Posted August 29, 2011 Author Share Posted August 29, 2011 Maybe the game (the EA servers) needs to have some weird ports open. Though, I don't know which ports they need, and I have no clue how to find them. I cannot use EA's support system (gives me an error), so I cannot ask them either. Maybe someone else could look into this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronnie42 Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Well if there were ports that needed to be open they then should have told me last night because getting tired of being on the live chat thing, getting nowhere with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keung Posted August 29, 2011 Author Share Posted August 29, 2011 That's exactly the problem with live chat support, especially at big companies. They've got a bunch of people who know absolutely nothing and quite frankly the only thing they know is in a knowledge base they keep searching over and over again. This is probably also where the e-mail support gets their standard answers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
datjaimekid Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 ive been having the same problem eversince i bought the game i talked to microsoft and its not my xbox it has something to do with either the game its self or EA but its not the xboxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronnie42 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Yes and for me I get the same pointless troubleshoots, when it comes down to it they can't troubleshoot their side which frustrates me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MainManMoon Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Damit, i was getting really into that game as well. havent been on for a while now but it was good for the most part (except when the game lags out when your sitting on all propertys and about to win) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C Denis SLO Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Same problem for me. Now i have 755G and can't play online. WTF??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C Denis SLO Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Connect XBOX directly to the modem and bypass the router. This solves for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-NaDa Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 If you are having no issues when you connect your 360 directly into the modem, it's likely due to strict NAT settings on your router. Try restarting your router. If that doesn't help, you can try putting your 360 into a DMZ or forwarding the ports necessary. There are guides for this online, just Google "xbox live strict NAT." I have to restart my router pretty much every time I turn my xbox on (partly because I have a crappy router for now). A strict NAT will allow you to connect to xbox live, but it may take awhile to find matches (it used to take me 5-10 minutes to find a match in Black Ops before I figured it out) or in this case, not be able to connect to the game's online servers at all.

Djens Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Problem still existing, and EA is not reacting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-NaDa Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 I have the game (for now) and was able to get into the online section. This was after I first got the message twice. I just kept trying and it eventually let me in. My router is on an open NAT since I just restarted it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keung Posted November 11, 2011 Author Share Posted November 11, 2011 It's been a while since I tried connecting to the EA servers so I thought I should have another go, and guess what? It finally works now. Maybe I can get my 1000 now... Edit: Oh.. And I'm still connecting to LIVE via a router. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m2hot2b Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 I couldn't play for a month because of this issue then one day playing around I found a fix that has worked for me ever since. Try going to settings, system, then storage. Highlight your storage device (dont select it) and you will see you can press Y for device options. Press Y and go to clear system cache and press A then select yes. I had problems with Monopoly Streets not letting me play online and giving me disconnected from server issues, loading times, lagging, and freezing up before the update. I found this option by playing around. It fixed a lot of issues I was having. I now do it once a week and have not had anymore issues. Let me know if it works for you.
