  1. Certain games not working connecting to friends


    i recently decided to bring my xbox onto campus so i can play with my friends. halo 5, halo mcc, gta v, and stardew valley works all the time with no problem, while divinity 2, dead by daylight and friday the 13th do not let me connect to them. i am gamesharing
    halo mcc ,stardew valley, gta v, divinity 2, dead by daylight and friday the 13th, so im not sure if its a problem with gamesharing. could it just be how the wi-fi is set up at my college, or something with the games themselves?

    :)

    Any error codes, or is your friend just not able to join when you send invites?

    If possible connect one of the xbox's to a hotspot and then try to play together, that would tell us if it is the wifi or not.

    Best of luck, let us know!

    Hey Corey I'm Wildcat. So with gamesharing I unfortunately must say I am very inexperienced in the matter. but to help me understand whats happening, and so I can hypothesize a solution I'll ask a few questions and perhaps if another ambassador sees this
    and is more savvy it'll help them too.

    1. Have you ever gameshared before?

    2. Does the network at your school say what NAT type it is?

    3. Do your friends own the games themselves (has a chance of causing the trouble if not)

    I know it may seem redundant of me to reply when I don't know anything but I wanted you to know that we see you my friend, don't want you feeling ignored/invisible.

    1. Yes, i have been for a while now

    2. i think the NAT type was open

    3. They do as far a i know

    its completely ok though, i appreciate the comment
