I followed all the instructions to play COD WAW Zombies with friends:
- All legitimate copies of Steam.
- UPnP enabled on all.
- Ports required for the game enabled.
- I create a game as a host (one of the 4 standard maps in the game, no MOD).
- All friends appearing correctly as "online".
- I start the game via the "xpartygo" command without any problems, a few seconds later my friends can see my private match just fine ....
- ... then they double-click on my name in the list and NOTHING HAPPENS. Absolutely nothing, no windows, no error messages ... nothing. They simply just can't get into my zombie match already underway. I - the host - am the only player in the match. We all switched positions, another friend being the Host: same result, the others are not able to enter the created game. I - the host - am the only player in the match.
Before someone ask: yes, we all switched positions, another friend being the Host: the same result, the others are not able to enter the created match.
I need to ask: only me (and my friends) are facing this problem? I don't know what else to try.
I appreciate the initiative of the Plutonium team but - without disrespect or offense - I can't understand how everything has to be so damn difficult and unfriendly to the player.
Any help will be most welcome.
