What does 'players found' mean?

So after the patch, I have been seeing “players found” a lot but I’ve been getting stuck at that point with nothing happening. Is this a problem with the game or is it just my internet connection? I saw a post about this problem already, but I’d like some clarification if anyone knows. I have found games, but this problem happens a lot and I’m curious as to what it means.

I usually never get past that. When I do, I get “Disconnected from host”. No matches to be found here.

I think it is something to say when it has connected and recognized other players, I usually get it about 30 secs before it starts connecting to session.

According to the update, this is to notify you that the game has found players for your group. But as far as i can tell it just tells you that so you keep waiting believing its doing anything. I almost always sit staring at this for about 5 to 10 minutes then give up

Pretty much sums it up.

It means it found players and is now attempting to put them all together in a laggy game using the worst internet connection as host.

Infinite loop of troll message.

Sorry to hear that, I know it sucks and I know I shouldn’t complain because there’s a lot of people in a worse situation than me. The situation you mentioned happens sometimes to me. Something I noticed is that for me, search times are really random now. Before, the few matches that I found took 5 minutes to search for. Now, I might get stuck on “players found”, I might get “disconnected from host” I might find a game in 8-10 minutes or very rarely find one in 5 minutes.
