Why can’t i host or join my friends in black ops 1?

Hi Colton_4343, my name is Rodrigo. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

I am sorry to hear that.

Do you receive an error message or code?

Please, try changing the Port Selection on the connection settings, from automatic to manual.

Go to Profile and System > Settings > General > Network Settings > Advanced Settings> Alternate Port Selection > Manual > Choose any from the Menu starting with a 4 or 5 (Example: 49215 or 57165).

Then reset your console.

In case it does not work, clear the Xbox 360 data from the console.

Press the Xbox Guide Button > Settings > System > Storage Devices > Clear local Xbox 360 storage > Yes.

After that, try playing the game again

I hope this helps.

Do you have a Black Ops 2 Team or want to join a Black Ops 2 community? Then join XOGC and join our `COD BO2 division called Major League Killers. We have a confirmed date of April 27,2013 to host our first COD BO2 Tournament. The tournament will be a 5v5
tournament. So get your 5 best team members or friends and go to www.xogcgaming.enjin.com/callofduty and sign-up.

I'm not seeing an option to host a random campaign co-op. Just blind? If you can host a co-op campaign game, it seems like there would be an option to join random games. Can you only invite people on your friends list to join your game? Same for Guerrilla
games. I don't are an option to search and host. Just friends?

Does MW3 not join you up with friends like Black Ops. That was an awesome feature when joining a friends game Black Ops would always team you up next game...unless your friends party was full. Treyarch are smart that way!

I can’t join or host a multiplayer game, I have all of my permissions on and joining ultimate didn’t help either.
