<![CDATA[Unable to play BO2 Zombies with friends (Connection issue)]]>Hi everyone,

I'm having an issue with Black Ops 2 Zombies on Plutonium. I can't play with my friends no matter who hosts the game.

Whenever we try to join each other's lobby, it either fails to connect, gets stuck while joining, or disconnects before entering the match.

Here's what we've already tried:

Restarting Plutonium and the game.

We can play other online games without any problems, so it seems to be specific to BO2 Zombies on Plutonium. Has anyone experienced this issue before or knows how to fix it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Doesn't matter if we both have our internet set to private, public, if we have steam open which originally fixed it for a bit but now it's back when trying to play with 3 people. It's all just bad.
