my party invite is not working with 1.3 update and nat open??????

[belal]

this update do not fix party!!!!!!!!!!

[ReconHope]

your nat?

[Doctor Phil]

@Juno

NAT is (N)etwork (A)dress (T)ranslation.

[ReconHope]

I was just wondering if his nat type was open or moderate/strict

[THE-BODY-BAG-MAN]

just been in a party and played spec ops to
with no issue
it didnt last night but they have done the servers today that was the big issue

[ballsofsteel]

i really wish they would go back to the way COD4's invites worked. Using the PSN messaging system and XMB is way to slow and tedious

[Venatus-Deus]

I like it because you don't even need to be in the game. Just go to your messages, join and boom your in the party. Is it really much slower? I couldn't tell.

[THE-BODY-BAG-MAN]

if you go to there name if they are in a open game slots open
it says join no need to send email

[peeps]

altho cod4's was nice and simple this is better and has more of a 'community' feel to it.

also means if u get lots of invites from different ppl u can view em all rather than having them stack on ur screen.

plus it got really annoying when i'd go to change class in the middle of a game and have to cancel an invite cus it was taking up the whole screen. also we can now finally join other ppls rooms! which was a big annoyance with cod4 where u spent a lot of the time waiting for invites and not being sure what ur mates were actually doing , or if they were even in a game

[dafonz]

I just think that if everybody is trying to invite you to a group your inbox gets fairly crowded, rather annoying really.

[peeps]

yeh i do know what you mean lol used to get so so cluttered when i played vegas 2. tbh it's not too much of a problem for me since i dont send or recieve many messages via psn so just clear up my inbox every so often

[tdrules]

does not fix the issue
nat type is open
way to fail

[THE-BODY-BAG-MAN]

nat should be open and it works fine have you been on to see

[Syaz1]

doesn't that mean it's on it's 3rd patch?

it's barely a week after it's release.

[TheTeam06]

That's not how it works.

[Syaz1]

cod mw2 is version 1 (release version). the .xx usually indicates incremental patch doesn't it?

[The-Director]

Yeah, they release 1.01 "that screwed up the trophies", so they released 1.02 which fixed the trophies, and now they released 1.03 to fix the party invites problem, way to test your game IW.

[TheTeam06]

Sorry, I was being too general. What I mean is, in some cases it does, but not always. Very small, steady improvements would result in an extra .01 in the version. Others can jump. I'm not entirely sure why, but yeah.

[divideby0]

I was playing online last nite...
First COD game I purchased in a long, long time..but played all of them SP is what I like.
I just dont get why so many like MP...its meh

[caffman]

because it doesn't need it

[peeps]

correct. but then it doesn't really matter all that much now does it...

[TheTeam06]

Damn straight it doesn't.

It just needs a $50 admission fee.

[mastig8]

if u cant join a party all u gota do when u c a invite hit your PS botton go to accnt management hit triangle on it sign out then sign back in go open message and join it worked like that since it came out alot of work but it does the job

[Scary69]

This article is false because that update did not fix anything.

[xjoshbx]

For everyone that still can't join invites after 1.03 do the following to work around it.

#1 have your friend send you the invite.

#2 don't try to join yet... go to account management on your xmb, press triangle and sign off.

#3 now sign back in, open the invite and join. Tada!

I know this is lame but it works until the problem is completely ironed out, I've been doing this the past 2 days.

[emjayx]

lame, party invite is still not fixed, and doing the trick everytime is kinda annoying :/

[drdre74]

Still doesn't work for me. I get a lot of invalid errors when we are both texting each other saying we're in a lobby waiting. Or I'd get sent to a game that my friends are even in.

[gtafan]

Why would this game get 9s is beyond me. It's more broken than Socom for the simple fact that it got rushed. 3 Call of Duty's in less than 3 years amazing. Game broken = no good.
