Massive Issue: Starting multiple matches at once (in Ranked): Error 42

So, here is what is playing out over the last few days. I will join a ranked 2v2 game. Then, before that game starts it gives back "Error 42" and gives up. I go to join another match (which starts the search again) and then at the same time I will get back a screen that says "You have left a match in progress, do you want to rejoin" (something like that), and I do because I don't want to get banned.

So, that game starts, but since it was also searching for a game in the normal window I will get about 20 seconds into the re-joined match and it takes me out and loads me into the newly found match.

I have also seen other players magically go poof and they are gone, mid shot and all! I am definitely not alone on this one.

The fortunate thing is, I never get banned for leaving the first match but man, i feel bad for my teammate who gets left alone with over 4 minutes left.

PS4, ranked 2v2s, gold4lyfe.

Someone else posted something like this earlier.

There's a patch coming later so hopefully that'll fix it.

I can't find anything in this subreddit, it's all "my first aerial GC switch back fade kill flip" around here. Thanks for the heads up.

Yeah, it was called something like new bug for PS4 or something like that. Don't worry, wasn't complaining about the repost. Was just surprised because that's the first post I had seen about this issue and I've seen two in the same day.
