Warning, Bad connection.
The host disconnected.

ETC ETC ETC

What the hell!!?? I've spent 45 minutes trying to play 1 damn game. What is going on? I can play all my games online and have played a private game of TW with a mate so it can't be my network.

Are people kicking me from the game as soon as I join or what? This is beyond a joke now.

SOunds like a routher issue to me. Sometimes I get that and I have to reboot my router and it goes away. A key way to knowing whether or not its your router is if you go to join a game and you technically get in the game pre lobby bu tyour stats don't load and shortly after it says it's no longer available. That means your NAT type is closed and you couldn't communicate with one of the other routers in the group.

Or,people are just stopping the game because they don't want to risk their precious points.
If you're at a higher level it could be hosts just quitting because they're looking for easy wins.

are you just joining random games are do you go into the lobbys/session match search to find games? if your doing the session match or in the lobbys looking at games, and u try joining it and you get a message like this, try joining it again and if it doesnt let you join it AT ALL, it means they kicked you from the game...some high skill players boot low skill players cuz its boring to play them, other high skill players boot other high skill players because they hunt noobs, it all really depends...try joining games of your same skill level and see if they play you...thats your best bet in getting games and if you keep getting the messages it might just be ur connect

tweet me w questions!!

i have this problem with the stats not loading with a friend of mine. we played for months on this game and then a couple of weeks ago this problem showed up out of nowhere and won't go away. How would you go about checking if your NAT type is closed and how do you fix it? i'm computer illiterate.

I play the Wii.
It happens quite a bit. High ranked guys don't want to play other high ranked. Me personally, I could care less if you are a level 1 or level 100, I will play you to the end. One time during sim play I got matched with a level 1. He took as much time as possible and was always landing where I was. I can't prove it but I believe he was watching where i shot and then aiming for my marker. Smart thinking on his part b/c he was right with me the entire game. Bet next time I play him he will be much better.
