Direct Connection

[Ataros]

Try creating a game session from inside the Lobby.

yeah those ports are open

I just dont understand it

My friend keeps getting "Failed to Connect Reason: Timed Out"

[Ataros]

Did you try launching a server from MP Lobby?

yeah sometimes it appears and my friend can join other time it wont even show up, or he gets timed out. I give up

Steam FAQ tells it needs much more ports open. I just open all ports for both Steam and Launcher both for incoming and outgoing connections in my firewall to be visible in MP browser.

Ataros -

Are you opening both UDP and TCP ports for launcher.exe and steam.exe ?
