Joining Failed. Can't Join this game right now!

[Colossal Mania]

I am still unable to play multiplayer with friends. I confirmed I dont have any mods, nor does my buddy have any mods and it still doesn't connect. This is the 3rd or 4th week in a row of this happening. Is multiplayer just busted until another patch comes out or am I doing something wrong and have to fix it?

I hope it has nothing to do with my save being corrupted or something... Any tips would be greatly appreciated if anyone has had progress.

Start a new game together, then load from that new run into the targeted savegame

So are you saying. start a new multiplayer game with them, once in game, go to the in game menu > load game > load a save from my original multiplayer game and go from there?

Works if the issue is danger zone related.

"danger zone related" what do you mean?

There's a known issue right now according to Larian's support and their discord. I am also having this. I hear a workaround is to remove the person off your friends list and use direct connect, but my partner is too lazy to do that so we're just waiting for it to be fixed.

What a weird workaround. You do not need to unfriend people. You can achieve the same by starting the game without Steam.

The "you cannot join right now" thingy you mentioned. In pretty much all cases it is because the savegame is in a scripted state where joining is not allowed. Most people have had that issue during boss fights.

Also ~ connecting using direct connect using the ingame code, rather than Steam is the standard. Not the other way around.
