Hey

I'm trying to play against a friend online in a multiplayer game.When I try and connect the message below [see link] comes up.When I host the game he gets the same message.

Any help on why this is/how we can fix it would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Sounds like a firewall is blocking the port or your route needs to redirect the port correctly.

also if there are any patches or updates for this game make sure you both are running the same exact version.

have had this happen with other completely different games in past as well, where one person is running a slightly different version and neither could connect to the others server.
