... and didn't find one. All it ever tells me is that it's searching for a game. Sometimes if I leave it searching for 5 minutes it'll find one. And by sometimes I mean rarely.

What's the next thing I try? Well if I can't join a game, I'll make one myself and have people join. So I go to Custom Match, set the options I want, and select "Start Game," which I assumed would create a lobby for people to join. NOPE! In order to create a match I have to first search for a game and then wait until it fails to find one for it to finally ask if I want to make a match. What the heck?

I eventually get my lobby started and wait for others to join. One person entered and waited alongside me, but he grew impatient and left after a few minutes when nobody else would come. Welp, might as well try to invite some friends.

Alright, so I open up my friends list and invite them into my lobby. This couldn't possibly go wrong could it? Wrong. They both tell me that when they accepted my invite, it tells them that there are no games available, and if they wanted to create one. WHAT? They try a few more times and get the same message.

Maybe the problem was with me then? So instead, one of my friends made a lobby and invited me. I then received the message that there are no games available. ARGGGGHH!

What's wrong here? This can't only be me, as my friends have the EXACT same problems I have. And just to let you know, I have played a few games online before but getting into them was not as easy as it should be.

its not just you. i usually dont have issues with getting people into a match that im hosting, but the only times i tend to find a lobby with a host in it already is when i search for a ranked pro.

otherwise, every single one of your issues have happened to me, and i assume, many others as well. the invites can be especially frustrating...one sometimes functional work around is to be in party chat, and search for the same exact game type around the same time. if one person gets a room to host, the others can keep searching. even that doesnt always definitely work....

yep me and my friend have the same problem. Its bad enough that you cant create your own games but when you do finally get in a game your friend isnt able to join it or the game fills up before he can join. FIX THIS PLEAZE

What gametype were you searching in?
Was it ranked or unranked (player)?
What time was it?

You didn't state any of those, although I can assume it was a player match, because ranked is always full of people.

Anyways, if you can't find a game of a specific gametype, then you really can't do anything except host one.

You can always try a quick match, which I sometimes do for some variety in ranked matches.

The best thing you can do about your private game issues is restart Worms 2: Armageddon, and/or quit the party until you are in the game successfully. We don't know if the game requires an open NAT (like Halo 3), which causes the same problem of joining certain lobbies.
