Waiting for Host to start the game
Im trying to play with 4 friends and 4 of us can connect to everyone, except for 1 friend, we can connect to his lobby, but the game wont start.
Same for him, he can join our lobby, but the game wont start ONLY for him...
Can someone help us?

Well, when u start the game the host will load in and only then the others will load in too. Always takes like 30secs for us too.

I got the same problem.
We are 5 people.
When I host the server no one else can join.
When someone else is hosting, all others can join apart from me.
I join the lobby and it only shows "waiting for host ...."

It might be ur firewall blocking access. That happened to me in a different game, deactivate it and try again.

A shot in the dark, but you guys maybe using shared (family) libraries?

What do you mean by that? I'm not sure how to fix that?

Exit the lobby, press SHIFT + TAB, RMB to the friend who created the lobby, and click on the "join" button
