Multiplayer join problem still persists?

[Lemmington]

How long has this game been out and joining friends is still as broken as 1st day, wtf?

I put in a ticket and support responded by telling me to check my internet connection.

yeah that seems to be their go to response.

I jumped through their hoops for a few responses and they still tried to gaslight me that it's my fault.

The only way I can see this actually being fixed is the squeaky wheel way—keep submitting tickets, leaving negative reviews, or any other form of outcry.

Is this problem only for more than 2 players? Would like to play this with my kid on xbox to pc.

It seems to be random. Examples: we have the same four player group for every game we play. When we try to play this game, one person (player 2) is able to join my group, but the other two players (player 3 and player 4) cannot. Player 3 and Player 4 still cannot join my game, even if Player 2 has not yet joined my game. Conversely, I can join player 4's game, but player 3 and player 2 cannot join. However, if I have not entered player 4's game yet, player 3 can join player 4's game.

Bought this on sale to play with friends. We had tons of issues with Shift being absolute garbage for Borderlands 3, but now with Tiny Tina's Wonderlands it was literally unplayable. Shift won't let any of us properly online at all. Only solution is to use a VPN to spoof our PCs to pretend we're closer to the Shift Servers but that is so grossly unacceptable, especially with this being an issue since launch and it still persisting today. The nerve of Gearbox/2K to sell this game with this Shift sh*t.

Thanks. That is a real shame.
I'll just drop that though then. Damn hard finding a good x-platform coop shooter (besides DRG) haha

[{MoO}Tanquen]

My friend and I wanted to try this for co-op. :( Oh well.

After some battling 2k support, they told me their team is aware of the issue and working on a fix

[ChipButty]

I'm having the same problem with 2 player coop. :(

Problem has existed since about Thanksgiving. We've tried all sorts of combinations for joining each other (never get more than 3). One way will work one day the next the same way will not work. Randomly change order of join location, etc. which takes up half an hour just to get together. Now on top of that we're getting seriously lag/stutter issues when we DO get together. No matter who hosts, the joiners all suffer the same issue. This is going downhill FAST.

[Catch22]

Been playing for awhile now without issue until the past couple weeks. Lag is BRUTAL, 1-2 SECOND lag spikes, 2 of my friends cannot connect to eachother, but I can connect to either one. Come on guys, Lets get this fixed

Same

deactivate crossplay helped us to play together

EDIT: After having rubber banding and tried to create another session, we have the same problem again...

I wouldn't count on getting that fix.

After a 2 week ticket with support, they told me to run a trace route to an IP that isn't pingable (104.255.107.131- which I assume is one of their SHIFT servers), and blamed my ISP. Told me to contact my ISP and (i ♥♥♥♥ you not) tell them "apply any necessary updates and check for any blockers"

So apparently, three of my other friends, all in different states, all with different ISPs, have to contact our ISPs because its the ISP's problem, not Gearbox or 2k.

It finally worked first try for me and 2 friends tonight. It was the first time since Thanksgiving.
