Hey all!

My sister and I are trying to play some multiplayer matches, but whenever i try to join hers i cant join...
She also cannot join my game.

But when her friend creates a game (same local network) she can join him and i can join him/her
So i think she is being blocked some how.

Anyone having the same problem? Or better yet anyone have a fix for this?

Yeah having the same problem.

Cant join the game of 2 of my friends in the states, but when 1 of our mutual friends hosts a game, we can all join and play together without any problems.

Ive got all the ports forced open, same for allowing the game in my personal firewall, never have any network issues besides that and the now-and-then server disconnects.

Do you have NAT enabled on your router or does your router bridge?

If you have NAT, do you have active port-forwarding for these ports for UDP?

5659 and 6000?

I actually opened those in hopes to resolve my disconnects to games, usually it's a standard for me to open the ports my favorite games require.

Have you set your adapter settings on your computer to go for a spefic IP address? Since I'll assume by "opening" those ports you mean forwarded to your computer.

This only helps when you don't have your router on bridge mode.

Mine has a static IP. But the weird part is that i can join her friend, who is on the same local network so he goes through the same switch and router as she is.

Same here, Friends cannot join my game and I cannot join friend's game, stuck at "joining game" for ever. I have been tracking all the threads similar to this one for weeks.

Yes, I wonder how many other people who have this problem also have someone else on their local network who own Mass Effect?

Those are open, but are those the ports that Origin uses? Or that Mass Effect uses? Because i believe the problem lies with origin not with Mass Effect. Beca8se i read and experienced the same problems with Battlefield 3.

Same problem. Can't join many of my friends unless a third party we can both join hosts the game. The ports are open and tested and I can play public games just fine. I end up playing mostly public games with people not in my friends list because of that.

Also, one time I was trying to connect and was stuck at "joining game" yet I heard mic audio from the lobby, an entire conversation actually of half a minute or more. Never got to the lobby though.

A friend and I also have this issue. We can play with other people with no problem, but when we invite each other to our games we can't join. We've tried making the server private and both have tried hosting the game, but it doesn't work no matter what we do.

We have the same versions (1.1.5427.4 according the the MassEffect3.exe file) and that is the latest update Origin offers us. Multiplayer is working without any errors except when it comes to this.

It's really annoying to not be able to play with friends when playing with random people works. :(
