We, a group of three friends, started playing recently. I had no difficulties playing with friend number 1 and we enjoyed the game.
When I created a lobby where I and friend number 2 were, it showed us that the other one's cionnection lost. 
This would seem like the problem resides within the friend number 2, but both friend n.1 and friend n. 2 can play together.

This means that friend number 1 can play with both of us, but while we can play with seperately, we can't play together.
Any hints or suggestions what could be the problem please? ^^

https://forums.revor...rwarding-guide/ I would recommend looking at that, it goes over how to fix common connection issues


They don't care if support needs help until support decides they don't want to help anymore.

I'm having the same problem. 

 

B can connect to A (green dot), which would imply A and B have correctly forwarded ports and disabled firewall

C can connect to A (green dot), which would imply A and C have correctly forwarded ports and disabled firewall

But B cannot connect to C (loading dot), and I cannot figure why.

 

I (B) have followed the guide here https://forums.revor...rwarding-guide/, disabled my firewall completely, and setup UDP port forwarding to my local IP, exact same for my friend ©, both on Windows 10. "A" is just a random guy we joined in a lobby that we both could connect to while not being able to connect to each other.

 

Is it possible that the fact that X can connect to Y does not imply that Y can connect to X ?

It is possible that if you have the "FirewallPortOverride = 16000" line in your options.ini, it will make you unable to host.
