we have the same issue, but friends can join me, as I think it's because I have an open NAT and some of them have strict NAT and this may have something to do where the game is hosted, may be wrong, because it's the same in a private match some can join and some can't it's just one of them f??ked up games, never worked correctly from the outset.

I'm having the same problem, among others. But I cannot seem to join my friend's party or him to me. Whatever it is, I hope they fix it soon.

99.99% of the time when i try to form a group with a friend in this game, it will refuse to work at all. If a friend tries to join a game im already in, it will dc both of us. Same with if i try to join their game. I also get the 'cannot connect to online services' message. That message is only like 95% of the time though. Still EXTREMELY annoying.

I was on the free weekend account at first, thinking it was something like, you can't be free-to-play and party with the ptp people. So i buy the game, and it still ***** up constantly.

Last night we finally got it to work for 3-4 hours. This morning, we wake up and try again, but no... it refuses to let us into a group again. WTF is up with this ****?

I've tried all the 3 month old tips and tricks for fixing it. Portforwarding, upnp on, upnp off, restarting steam/computer/router/modem, changing default gateway ip address, changing personal ip address. Nothing is working, it is 100% random.

How do i fix this? It's getting old really fcuking fast. The hackers are bad enough, but not being able to even group with friends...what the ****.
