Direct Connection

I can connect to actual dedicated servers fine but, is anyone able to direct connect to another game hosted on someones pc ?
I havent been able to direct connect to my friends game nor him with mine, couldnt find either in the lobby or search functions.

Is this seeming to be my pc like a router problem? or is this known to be a general problem with multiplayer

are ports 27015/16 open on your routers?

Try creating a game session from inside the Lobby.

yeah those ports are open

I just dont understand it

My friend keeps getting "Failed to Connect Reason: Timed Out"

Did you try launching a server from MP Lobby?
