New R1 User - Friends unable to join


Recommended Posts

Hi All

 

I'm a new R1 user (today). I'm having issues with friends trying to join me, I've tried to invite them into a lobby on CoD WW2 but im not seeing any circles on the map to add them. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I can get into an Xbox Live Chat party OK, it's just when they try to join my lobby. Also 1 of the users also has an R1too. Do I need to go into a "private" match and invite them in, or can I use the public match lobby and invite them?

Thanks

Kenny

I've tried this and I'm not getting the red circle in order for me to add them. Do you know if in Call of Duty I need to go to Custom Match and invite them in? The issue I'm having is, im sending the invite with the geo-filter turned off and 1 person can't join me because they also have an R1. Do they need to turn off the Geo-Filter too? Weirdly, we can both join a person that doesn't use an R1 but then they can't migrate the host to one of us because we "don't have the correct network configuration" or something like that.

The way I did it was to first disable GeoFilter, then start a new chat (you host chat), invite them in and add them when they join. Let them know they wont hear you at first. After a couple minutes have them rejoin chat. Then they should be able to join you in game. The reason I said to do it in chat is because you will know all the circles are them. Just ask them what State they are in so you can log their names to locations.

I have tried this, still having issues, the other person with an R1 has turned off geo filter, we cant even connect to each other on xbox live party.

Turns out UPNP isnt working and manually forwarding ports did the trick for both of us

 

Nice one, good job figuring it out. Let us know if we can help with anything else.
