COD:WaW Coop browser issues

[Jules]

Hey everyone, Im having a issue. I can't seem to find many coop games at all. I even try to host my own Zombie but no one joins at all. Anyone know how to fix this?

Just added you to my friends list. I'm in game now....let me see if I can connect to your game.

Cool trying now

I can see that you're online, but when I go to browse for a game from my friend's list, nothing shows up. Immediately after clicking "Refresh", I see a message that says "getting info from 1 server" and then it's immediately gone.

Let me host a co-op game and see if you can join it. Going in game now.

[Edit] Sent you an invite to my hosted game. Are you running the latest patch (v1.3)?

Yeah i have the latest. I didn't get the invite.

Hmm, still having the issue. I have the ports forwarding.

Still no luck. The game isn't showing up for me.

Invites work fine, but nothing else. Anyway, that was quite fun.

indeed



anyone else know of a fix?

Hmm, Seems to work fine when i put it though DMZ. Why is that? I have the ports forwarded

 

[BlueWeasel]

If DMZ works, then it definitely sounds like a port issues. Can you confirm that the proper ports are open?

Heres a screen shot

I'm finding both the ports you gave plus others.

Try these ports to see if it makes a difference:

20800, UDP
20810, UDP
28960-28970, UDP (another range I found was 28930-28970).

I'm seeing some people recommending opening ports 374-28970 for WAW. Uh, 28,000+ ports open for a single game. I don't think so.
