Game servers shutting down lately
I've been playing co-op a lot lately and I'm having trouble with the game servers shutting down. I'll be in the middle of a co-op community test map when I get a message that the "Game Server has shut down." I get kicked off. I can usually go back in and play again (if I can find a partner) but it's really annoying.

Is this happening with anyone else? I know my partners have been experiencing it as well, but is it nationwide? Worldwide?

I'm pretty sure portal 2 uses peer to peer hosting, so the "game servers" are actually the person who sent you a request to play, they are hosting. So if they go offline, you get disconnected.

Well, it's been happening with people who immediately invited me to play again. So, yeah, some of them may have disconnected but not all.
