After doing the new Warzone 2.0 update I can add a friend to game but when I start match it...

This issue started happening after the Nov 16, 2022 update for COD Warzone 2 and I experienced it with my friend as well.

Here's something that you can try which my friends & I did last night & this morning to play MP & Warzone 2:

- Host presses three line button on their controller

- Press RB to switch to tab for Game Chat & Create your own Channels

- Create a Channel (you can use the default name or change it to whatever you like and you only have to do this step once)

- Connect to that new Channel if you see it say disconnected

- Press A on the channel to see the available options

- Select the option to invite players (should be Y if I remember correctly - console is turned off now)

- You may need to switch back to default Game Channel to invite friends to your COD party or use XBL invite to game

- Connect back to your new Channel when your friends have joined your COD party if you switched back to Game Channel to send them COD party invites

- Back out to the previous menu where you can select which game mode you want to play (eg MP, Warzone 2, DMZ etc) & select the one you want to play together

- Start matchmaking and now your friends in your party shouldn't be kicked back out to the COD game select screen unless some other bug or server disconnect happens although those usually happen while you are playing in a match from what I saw last night

If your party gets separated (eg sometimes one person's game may disconnect from the matchmaking server) then you may need to repeat the steps to re-invite players to your new Channel and/or the COD party.

Good luck!

Thank you for that and I apologize for the trouble. May I ask what is your current NAT Type?

Settings > General > Network Settings > Test NAT Type.

This did not resolve the problem and it is a problem with every player at the current moment!

Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regard to your concern.

To fix this, please perform an extended powercycle and reset your network hardware by following the steps below:

1. Unplug the power cable from the back of the router, modem, or gateway for 5 minutes. If you have a router and a modem, unplug the power cable from both devices.

2. Press and hold the Xbox button on your console for 10 seconds or until it turns off then wait for 2 minutes before turning it on again.

3. After 5 minutes, plug the modem or gateway in first, and wait for all the lights to return to their normal state.

4. If you are using a router, plug in the router and wait for all the lights to return to their normal state.

If that didn't work resetting the console keeping games and apps will be the next option. Don't worry because as long as you're connected to Xbox Live your saved progress, games, will not be deleted. It will remove all of your accounts but you can add all of them later on.

Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

Select Profile & system > Settings > System > Console info.

Select Reset console.

Reset and keep my games & apps.
