What is up,can,t join in friends online games,open nat or is there a server not working?

Hello StephanVan G, my name is Oskayra, and I will be happy to help you.

Beforehand, it is important that you keep in mind that this is a public community forum, so we are players like you, we are not employees of Microsoft or Xbox, so we do not have access to any user account or check anything from the forum. All users help each other with common problems.

I am very sorry for the problem you are going through, with the intention of being able to help you I did an internal search on the Microsoft forum and found a publication by Rodrigo Oliver, an independent advisor, where he mentions the reasons why perhaps you cannot play in multiplayer for the moment:

Wait times are due to server capacity and player number/demand.

Queues are necessary to ensure that all players have a good gaming experience.

I believe the servers are being updated regularly to mitigate this, but for now, and given the time of year, wait times are longer than usual.

Thank you for your patience, I hope everything can be resolved. I will be attentive to your response. Blessings.

Sincerely,
Oskayra.

So my friend, who is on Xbox, checked his nat at the time when we were having problems. his NAT shows open and he can join random servers online. I can join random servers online. I can join a game when he hosts. But he is unable to join me when I host.

Im on xbox 360 and when i play games it says my nat type is open and so are my friends. I can play online fine but joining friend parties and games arent working

Just want to add that friends and join if a match is already in progress and there is room to join. However we can't join up as a team in the lobby. Would be nice to again if we can figure this out. This a game or server or host issue? I run a OPEN NAT all
the way. Single NAT network. Been no issues with other games. I had to switch to BO3 last nite so I could game with friends. Hope someone can check on this or post with some info.

Thank you.

The message that comes up on my friends XBox is network problem cant connect. Now his Nat is open, My Nat is open and my uncle Nat is open. My uncle can send him a request and it works. If I send the request it doesnt. If my Nat is open how come he cant
join.
