I don't have an Xbone, but I would assume it means you don't have a Xbox Live subscription.

Oh I have it, which is why this pisses me off.

Did you get it digitally? Perhaps the multiplayer section hasn't finished downloading. Also, maybe you need to update the game.

If all else fails, your Xbox Live might have expired. I can think of nothing else.

Have you tried screaming at your console, kicking it, throwing your controller across the room and crying bitter tears?

OK, sorry for making fun of you, I'd probably be as angry as you are in such a situation. Now to be serious.

Is there maybe customer support for BF1 or your Xbone? Have you tried googling this issue. I did and you are not the only one with this problem. Some other people seem to have found solutions of some sorts.

The system couldn't authenticate your multiplayer account privileges.

This could be
-You don't have XLive/PSPlus (which you've ruled out)
-Battlefield isn't detecting this properly for some reason.
-The authentication server timed out/is down. This seems most likely as Battlefield specifically is a game recently launched and probably overloaded, with EA historically launching without enough server capacity. Also its been getting DDOSed pretty heavily (along with the background mass DDOSing of DNS servers thats occurred in the last few days)
-You have to have a linked EA account? I don't know on that one, don't play Battlefield.

Likely a silly question but on the One do you have your own Gold subscription or have you been making use out of someone else's who had the console set as their Home system?

If the latter perhaps they have switched their Home system to another Xbox One?

On PC the ready to play mark only allows single player, that is probably the issue on XBox as well.

Physical copy that came with the console but I just found out that I did in fact have an expired Xbox Live account that was trying to use my old card so fiddling with that seemed to resolve the issue.

Battlefield has a history of being dogshit on release. This is why I always wait a few months for patches and server fixes before buying (If I bother) any Battlefield. This is just par for the course. Good luck to you though.

Can't say BF1 had any problems at all, I've been able to play on PC since day 1 with no problems.
