failed to join game

[bat3s]

why can't my brother connect to my game or me to him? we're 82% cleared on the game and we have not had a single problem like this over our 15hour gametime. (coop!)

and everything the **bleep** game tells us is "failed to join game"

I came up with a solution that worked for me and my friend. We both opened all the necessary ports, turned off the router firewall and also our anti-virus programs. It was when we disabled the anti-virus that we could finally connect to each other.

Hope this helps someone

EDIT:
Thought I could provide the ports I've opened if someone is wondering which ones they need to forward.

A friend and I just tried forwarding every port you listed and disabling our anti virus/firewalls, no luck here. Still receiving the same "failed to join" error message.

[dildo69a]

^

as above, tried forwarding them all exactly as written, no firewall or AV. Same issue.

[lazy845]

Dude! i got the same problem exactly like yours! i posted once by asking how to solve this problem or what's happing on EA server or is there a maintenance on the server so on...., but sadly still no replies at all for now!

and i am really honestly looking forward to having any solution for that as soon as possible! thanks.

[lazy845]

Earlier today, i tried to play co-op campaign via the quick match fucntion, it really wokred once and i could get into the game playing properly, but then when i tried to host a game and invited a friend to join in or got invited to join the game created by my friend which is still not wokring at all! it always shows " Failed to join game" over and over again!

All i want to say is that since when we can play co-op campaign with strangers only but not friends????

is there really no way to fix this ridiculous bug on the EA server? it's pretty frustrating in a situation like that without any response here.

[n1tr00t]

This is a new EA special programm "How to obtain friends".

Thanks EA, but i didn't want to play with strangers (my mom says to me even don't speak with them

I'll wanna to play with my friend.

Thats what i'll buy this game for.

GL 2 all.

[ipaddress]

OMG seriously FIXED this stupid problem !!!!! pointlesss playing with random people.. when u bought this specifically to play with a friend.
