      Seirius This issue occurs frequently on Plutonium, unfortunately. Try relaunching your game and ask your friend to do the same; this is supposed to fix the problem, even if it persists. Alternatively, try playing on empty servers.

                DinoEggOat I simply said it's not a 4 hours read since the t6 section is very small. This is just factual. People can also ask for help whenever they're stuck

                  If you and your friends don't own the game you have to exit out of steam first completely its really weird, it doesn't work all the time but it works like 60% more. And if you have the game on steam you don't have to do anything.

                        konniii that's just a coincidence. Your game files don't have any impact on the game other than being able to play DLCs or not, game language and stuff like that

                              Resxt To be fair the guide is completely useless. I have been port forwarding different games forever but Bo2 via Plutonium without the game on steam is just 100% broken. World at War works fine though.

                              I already used Windows Defender to change my settings for the launcher and game on both pc's to allow connections. This resulted in my Nat status being changed from strict to moderate on both pc's. I also changed the joining status to open after friending my second account. However, trying to join a custom match does not work at all. I tried inviting, joining lobby, joining an active game, etc and it just starts the loading process before failing with Unable to join game session error.

                              I then also opened the 3074 port inside my firewall as well as in my router settings aka port forwarding yet this did not do anything. Furthermore, I tried using the connect command yet that did even less. With this it does not even begin the connection process it just says connecting then silently fails.

                              All in all their documentation is useless I even verified my files are fine and everything is fully updated.

                                  factualapparatus documentation works great! 99% of users have no issues.

                                  Likely means you have a bad install. Like the person before you said...

                                   Bo2 via Plutonium without the game on steam is just 100% broken
                                  

                                  using pirated files is likely what is causing an issue (which can happen... they are no longer supported).

                                  Since this is your first post, (coming out with a real banger) it is obvious you haven't asked for help with your issue yet...

                                  If you are having an issue with something, don't revive an old post with a random complaint about the documentation.... make sure you are using good proper game files and then post what your issue is and we will be happy to help if we can!
