Hi, during the demo/beta i had no troubles joining  my friends in private MP games.

But now, i can't join thier games (it gets stuck on "joining game") and they can't join mine when i create one?!
I can however join through "quick match" and get to the lobby no problem.

tried joining with firewall shutdown, but had no effect.

would love some help!

 I'm having exactly the same problem. Can't join any friends games, however if we can both get into the same quick match it works fine.

We can both host public games with no issues, they fill up in seconds. However you simply can't go to a specific game at all, only random ones work.

We've both opened all ports in the FAQ's etc, everything works expect being able to actually play with friends...

Multiplayer needs a complete rewrite. For starters you should be able to have dedicated server hosts, sort games by pings and number of players etc. This current system is worse than useless.

Just makes everyone realise how much better it would have been on steam than on Origin fail.

Ditto here. Only workaround we managed to find was to have a third friend host the game so we could both join.

Same here. Me and my buddy can search and join Quick Matches but cannot join each other's Private games. The client joining the host stay stuck on "Joining Game" after the character selection screen.

Same problem here. Everything was working fine yesterday and tonight I can't join or invite my friend to a game. Quick match works fine but anything private will get me stuck to the "Joining game..." screen.

Same here, though it seemed to work sometimes when I was invited to a match that had already been started.

This is a port issue. We have DMZ on both sides and we can join each other instantly 100% of the time. Both can host and it work just fine but cannot stay DMZed for obvious security concerns.

Opening the ports taken from EA Support did nothing to help •UDP Ports: 5659, 6000 (https://help.ea.com/...t-3-multiplayer)

I forward all ports to my machine. The issue still persists. Plus a lot of people report that it wored fine in the demo. 
Add to it issues connecting to CE from standard verrsions and a few others things and it's pretty safe to say that a problem lies somewhere else.

Doesn't help the game doesn't allow you to exit the joining screen either.

That's what I said, we did forward our ports also and it didn't worked until we demilitarize. It still look like a port issue, it's just that the list of ports posted on the support page is either wrong or incomplete or specific to a platform other than PC. Anybody else found another list of ports (official)?

My friends and I have this problem as well. We are usually able to solve the problem by having everyone completely quit out of Origin and start again. It's a definite annoyance and something EA/Origin needs to fix. It's been a problem since the demo.

Just a little quality-of-life update on this issue; you don't have to restart ME3 to get out of the 'Joining game...' screen. Just reclick the Join Friend button in the overlay chat and back out at the character select screen.

this comment of your makes me wonder if Mass Effect 3's crew is incorrectly telling us which ports to open..
maybe ME3 actually randoms its ports to find hosts. (using one port sets for clients.. and other port sets for hosting)

Same issue. Had limited success with Origin's "Reload Games" in the settings menu, but upon trying to connect to a different host, can no longer connect to private games. Really damn tired of this ****. It's not even a consistent problem which makes it harder to figure out.

Hey. I had the same problem yesterday, and I found this thread trying to figure it out. However, I did find a solution!
This has nothing to do with the firewall, or at least not in my case. I enabled UPnP on my router, and everything suddenly worked out. You shold try that, worked for me straight away ^_^
