Can't join my friend

[TTV/FuzzieAcorns]

I saw a couple other threads like this but I wanted to add that it is now Sept 6th and I still can't join my friend. I can join random people's lobbies but when I try to join my friend it just brings me back to the start menu.

Hey!

This is really odd, especially, since you can join random people, but not friends.

I have to ask one or two things to get some info on this:
1. is this happening on the main version or on the public beta version (new patch being tested)
2. does it also happen with other friends?

If it's with a specific friend there have been 2 main reasons in the past for this problem:
- Make sure that Panicore is added as an exception to your firewall on both computers
- Make sure that your connection is not altered by the usage of VPNs or anything else

Hope something helps! In any case let us know as much as possible about this problem!

Thank you in advance!

I would like to chime in and say this happened to a group of my friends last night, with a few other complications. Firstly, only one friend could join all of us (having a different host), and everyone else got sent to the main menu. secondly, no matter who was hosting, only one of us could get in, we had the room set to 4 players and even tried public lobbies. Im gonna try the solutions you posted when they get on later. hopefully, the multiplayer issue is fixed because i loved the look of this game and have high hopes.

Hosting the game works for me just fine (germany)
with 2 friends (one finland, one norway)
Not sure how it not works for you guys, you did allow the game exe in inbound and outbound rules inside your windows firewall?

Hi, I just refunded the game today because of this issue with multiplayer. We have tried using steam invites, launching through dx11, joining through public server browser, adding the firewall exception inbound and outbound, and praying about it. Nothing works. The game just restarts from the beginning every time you try to accept an invite. Hopefully it is fixed soon.

Hi Dev! Sorry for my late reply. It is happening on the main version, and it is also happening with the friend I am trying to play with. I cannot join their lobby, nor can they join mine. But we both can join random people's lobbies. Firewall isn't an issue for either of us, and neither of us uses a VPN :c

Everyone needs to make sure their GPU drivers are on the latest version. Specially the host. That fixed it for my friends and I. It's a issue with a few different Indy tittles my friends and I play.
