The invites dont seem to be going through?

I cant get on with a mate at all, invites dont go through. I invited him, (OCE) and he got two guys on the screen, and both names in blue. But I clicked ready and he spawned in while I was still matching?

Seems to be the same even when he invites. Used to work fine and no changes to each PC. Others in OCE seem to be fine?

Did you see both of you on your screen? Or was it just him?

There has been a "workaround" posted on forums and Reddit (and I can confirm that it works) - whoever does not get the invite, has to restart their game. But only if the issue is of failing to get the invite. The way you described it, was not fully clear. Were both players in the group displayed on your screen as well as his?

Its annoying... but it works.

Thats captainrussia, 

Sometimes I would show up on his, but once he sent the invite I dissapeared from the lobby all together.

Same in reverse too.. We managed to get one game in yesterday using your method.....so thanks
