Forums - Microsoft - L4D2 on 360 always getting the "Failed to join games"

I had the same problem when I was playing it (the week it came out). I don't know the reason for that.

Where do you live?

i've tried playing online awhile ago and it only worked the first time, now everytime i try its like there isn't any room at all , and when i create a room no one joins, i doubt the game is region locked since i did play it once online, so whats the problem?

Go to Network settings on the Xbox dashboard and run a Xbox Live connection test. It will connect and then give you a notification saying you will experience problems online if your nat is set to moderate or strict. If it's open you won't have any message appear.

If your Nat is anything but open write down your router make and model and go to Porftforward.com and then look up your router and look at the guide on how to portforward for your Xbox 360.

NAT settings issue perhaps?


other games work perfectly without issue (Except Gears 2), so it must be something else.

If you haven't done so already I highly suggest fixing the NAT settings. It makes connecting to games much faster and reliable.

I mostly had problems connecting to XBLA games.

People are still playing L4D online on X360 so the userbase can not be the problem for LFD2.

Your location/NAT may aswell not be an problem if you can play other games online...

Edit:  Checked gamefaqs for you:

You are not online with this problem

i just managed to play a game or two online, i didn't really do anything it was weird, but there is barely more than 3 rooms to find, is that a lot compared to the first game? i remember the first game was packed on PC.
