Blackmist_FFXI Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 So I'm wondering if there is a trick to this, I tried w/ boost partner for almost 3 hours to connect to each other. An only managed to get into 1 standard non ranked game. Aside from changing my ports on modem/router (need to find my either net cord ) We were unable to match at all. Kept getting the '"can't join host. Change host" Is this due to shit e.a servers. Or just because we are on nat type 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuntingFever Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 The servers have been complete and utter dog shit since launch but some users have tried to find workarounds for the problems: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackmist_FFXI Posted October 27, 2022 Author Share Posted October 27, 2022 I was looking into them forums. And was going to try the port forwarding. Unfortunate about the servers. Did thus 100% on 360 years ago. Oh well. Thanks I'll try afew more fixes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donner_blitz Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 The highest chances for me and my boosting partner were to have both our consoles off at the start of the session. Enter the mp roughly at the same time and the host tries to invite the other person. Whether this is coop or mp, it doesn´t matter, if one works the other does as well. Try to connect, you only need to try this once, if the first invite doesn´t work the others will not work either. If it doesn´t work, both shut your consoles off and wait 10 minutes. Repeat and try again. It never took us more than 3 times to connect this way, but mostly we were successful first time. If this all doesn´t work after multiple attempts (or you have the invisible name glitch) Try again with another boosting partner. I don´t think it is fixible or we haven´t found a way, I don´t think nat type matters either, we were both nat 2. You just need to find a friend to connect well to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackmist_FFXI Posted October 27, 2022 Author Share Posted October 27, 2022 I'll attempt that one next time they are on. We were going to try different ps3's - but that ran into a hiccup as well lol. Question: If we manage to connect. And go thru co op story. Do we need to re-find each other each mission change. Or are we able do do all 9 missions for x faction in one run?

donner_blitz Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 You don´t need to reconnect after each mission. Only sometimes after failing a mission we would need to recreate a new lobby, which was never a problem, you should connect to each other again straight after. Connecting the first time is the hard part, after that you should be good 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackmist_FFXI Posted October 27, 2022 Author Share Posted October 27, 2022 Awesome, thanks for the input! Hopefully I'll be able to take care of the co op trophy quickly. [Worst case scenario I buy a 2nd disk and run it over home network I heard that is almost 100% chance to work] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
