Did you do the Game Update Routine when updating the game?

If not proceed with the Cleaning Cache guide to address your issues

make sure not to miss a single step then try again

Both of you.

Like patches before it. When they are big like this. It can screw up your older saves. Sadly, I bet a start over from the beginning may be required.

What platforms are you all on, and are each of those platforms at the exact same version of the game?

Hi if the host has mods installed and guest that is joining your game don't have the mods or the same version of the mods the game crashes or the invite doesn't happen. Just make sure that you don't use mods untill they fix the mods after the new patch.. I don't use mods so when i try to join my friends who does this always happens.

It works fine in a local LAN connection so it has to be those awful lobby servers.

I do not think so. So far the lobby servers only denied you proper work if there is actually something with the clients. In most cases there is a gustavdev error based on data mismatch.

Four players. All Windows. All on the same version. No mods for anyone. Two of us can connect to each other and the other two are unable to connect to anyone else. Gustavdev error. This seems pretty consistent. Restarted all computers. Same problem.

Edit: Both users who couldn't not connect found two (2) files that needed to be replaced during a "check file integrity" on Steam. This fixed the issue.

Was the game created before the new patch or after? Because I'm hearing a lot of people complaining about dc and connection issues on games that was created before the patch. I also have dc issues with my husbands multiplayer lan game. I dc after certain skills or right after ending the turn. We haven't yet tested if creating a new game would help.
