Even this is a total chore and frustrating mess trying to contact Ubisoft ,when you click on the contact tag it takes you to the platform,then it gives you possible reasons and suggestions with little in the way of replying.

I have seen a few with similar issues on far Cry 4 forums,but only a few and i feel i may have to reinstall the game or something.

Apparently the latest version is 1.2 so we need to check that,and there is the possibility that one of us for some strange reason or another has a different version to the other which would explain why we can not get into each others game.

i know that mine and yours is set to auto update and when i switch on my playstation 4 it prompts me that there is a update or i can see in the notifications that a game update has been downloaded and installed.

Personally its a last resort to delete and reinstall the game,especially if i lose where i am at present after 9 hours,if it sorted the issue out i would be more than happy to do it as i love the game so much it wouldn't be that much of a big deal.

When has a FPS story been brilliant,its all about the action and Far Cry 4 shines a very bright shining light,anybody that says it doesn't is a complete and utter fool and he knows nothing about FPS or doesn't play them.

Yes its the same as Far Cry 4 but its tons better and plays and looks better,and just out of interest Jaxx have you tried joining a friends co/op.

For some strange reason myself and Nelly can not get into each others games but we are fine when inviting Swanny.

Has everyone got a type 1 nat?, A friend had a router which for whatever reason wouldn't allow him to have a open nat (even when dmz and ports were opened, said it was doing it but obviously something was up), He often needed a guy with an open nat (type 1) to act as a bridge between him and his mate to play a game (this was before FC4).
I only ask as a lot of people don't realise that a lot of routers that hand out internal IP addresses for the consoles etc have a lease time and when that expires they could give out a different IP address and then the DMZ or open port will be on the old IP address of the console and not the new changed one.

The 3 of us checked last night and as far as we are aware the correct NAT was type 2 which all of us were.

Funny thing is Swanny can come into my game when i invite him and also Nelly can get him in also,problem arises when either myself or Nelly tries it and it constantly fails,so it works in a fashion but not correctly.

I was hoping that for some strange reason we had different patches but since we can both get Swanny in game thats not the case.

My NAT is type 1

Interesting......... I read earlier that someone with a similar issue changed his NAT to 1 and then all was dandy........

Swanny I asked you for the settings last night and you said your NAT was type 2 .....

Anyway I'm not sure you can actually change your NAT,isn't it automatic thing,can not see this in the HomeHub 5 or on the Playstation 4....

Timely calling Nelly........can you change your NAT matey

Anybody with a suggestion let me know .....

He did say it was Nat 1 mate.

Maybe it's a Plusnet/BT thing?

Well how stupid is that then mate if that's the case......NAT 1 is very very unsecure and NAT should be TYPE 2, even when you put it in DMZ and allocate Playstation network ip it still only changes to TYPE 2 .

People generally do this when they have TYPE 3 which Is basically useless for online gaming.

You can not physically change the NAT ,it changes when you do some of the above...

So you not bothered about teaming up then mate......I don't believe it's a BT v Plusnet thing either because we have played quite a few online games and I have even invited you to play some of my games haven't i.......[ wink] and that suggestion is if true is the most outrageous stupid minded thing they could possibly do...

Ps....apologies Swanny I must have miss heard you with all Nellys guns and excitement when he was playing the game and Timey here was trying to sort out the network issues.......

No, what I meant was, maybe they both have similarly poor default settings, unlike perhaps buying your own and configuring it manually.

You're probably right, I expect your memory is better than mine

I'll have a look later if I'm online
