Origin Does not let me connect to games on my friend list [ Edited ]

[Zarhan6]

Hi

Im having a weird problem, I can't connect or my friends can't connect to games through origin... Specifically Dead space 3 and Mass Effect 3.

Every time I make a game or my friend make a game and I try to join or they try to join my game it fails to join the game and gives an error message.

Battlefield 3 works because its through battle net but these two games do not work well or at all.

I have 2 friends which whit I play most actively one is on a different network provider and the other is behind the same router as I.

And we have tried every solution on forum and suggested here so that is why IM contacting you.

Do you have a solution or is it something in origins programming that you fixing currently??

I hope to hear from you soon.

Sincerely zarhan6

@Canoncola Hi,

Are you using the invite feature? Or are your friends trying to join by right clicking your name on their friends list and selecting join game?

Cheers,

Nils

Right-click friend name > Join Game

worked after I first got origin for only a few weeks... It was really nice to have... What happened?

@Canoncola Hi,

Apologies for the late reply, are you still experiencing this issue at this time?

Cheers,

Nils

[Canoncola]

Yes. For the past year. What's the fix?

@Canoncola Hi,

Please make sure that you have the latest version of Origin installed from here: https://www.origin.com/download 

Next make sure that nothing is blocking the connection by checking the following article: http://help.ea.com/en/article/connection-issues-with-origin/#1

Let me know how you get on afterwards.

Cheers,

Nils
