This first-person shooter franchise has just welcomed abode the third iteration in its lineup. The gameplay starts right where Payday 2 ended but with a twist of being double-crossed and losing all of their money and hence the need for Payday 3 made its way. Unfortunately, its release hasn’t gone down too well with its audiences, and that is if we are talking in the least harsh tone.
Not only has the gameplay been heavily criticized, it has also been bugged with a plethora of issues. Adding more to its misery, the game servers end up failing every now and then as well. While that is due to a massive influx of users, however, that is no justification as the developers should have been prepared for it beforehand. And wait, the list of issues doesn’t end here.
Numerous users have now voiced their concern that the Payday 3 matchmaking is not working along the expected lines. As a result of this, players are unable to connect to the online game. Some have even said that they waited for close to half an hour but still could not find anyone in the matchmaking system or even in the public matches with crossplay on. Well, some cannot even start an invite-only match. So this begs the all-important question- is there a fix? Let’s find out.
Fix Payday 3 Matchmaking not working
As of now, your best bet is to head over to forums like Reddit and Discord, find users, and them to your friends list from there. While this is not the most viable or feasible method to get the job done, however, as of now this is our only bet. As far as the official stance on this matter is concerned, the developers are yet to acknowledge this issue, let alone give out any ETA for the rollout of a fix. As and when any of these two things happen, we will update this guide accordingly.
