Friend not getting BuddyPass invite

[Clau]

Hello. I got the game yesterday. When I try to invite my friend it says that the invitation was sent but he doesn't get any notifications to join. He already has the character created and the Trial version launched. How can I fix this?

Well 1st thing is, both profiles in steam must be public and on-line, you both have to launch the game at the same time with your fighter ready to go. scroll down to buddy pass. if your friend is on-line you should see him. if not goto the rite of the screen and find friend at bethesda.net type in his user name and he will pop up and invite. the invite and getting you both to connect takes afew minutes. so you may have to try 2-3 times for it to lock on and connect.

In short thats what you have to do, so what part of that did you not do,

I see him and I can invite him, but when I send the invite he doesn't get any notifications or any popups to join my lobby. We have everything set to Public.

If everything is as I said. Then only the internet remains. Thats where we had our problems. If your friend lives say on Mars or something, Your not gonna connect or a too slow connection.

The buddy pass won't let him seek you out to play, you have to invite him. You can try different time's of the day. If your both at the loadout screen, go ahead and start your game, once you do that and sitting in-game before you even move, send the invite again.

If you want, add me as friend and we will try to connect. That will be the easiest way to sort thru the problem.


See that, what we did? in order for you and your friend to play you do the same. find each other 1st, close the game and restart.

So in attempt to fix it i unadded my friend on steam and it removed him from my options to use the buddy pass. Then he added me back on bethesda's friends list and i accepted it and went to try it and it worked. Now it works properly
