Console Trouble Inviting Friends

[Riddler_Tam]

When activating an online match I press to create a party, go to choose friends but the list doesn't appear.

I try finding a server with invite only, mentions no servers found, eventually get one, try to invite friends, says I cannot as session expired.

eventually locks out asking to invite same as the main search menu.

although it says session expired I can still ready up and play the match I created solo, a friend who has bought the game has the same problem.

is there a particular way to create a party we're missing?

the firmware is 1.02 but I don't see any patch notes which where included with the initial install, could it be this has failed to update proper?

Thanks for the report. We're looking into it.

Does this issue occur for you with Public servers as well or is this tied to Invite Only servers only? Also if when this happens to you again could you try pressing X again on the Invite Button to bring up the invite menu once again. It will be helpful for us if we know if this is a consistent issue or only happens once per server.

Got the same problem and after it says session expiered I can press X like a madmen and it does nothing. Tried it with a normal online game and as I wanted to invite my friend it says Invetation can't be send tried it 3 times then it didn't want to load the invetation screen anymore.

Was this happening for you today (November 22nd)? We noticed that invites system was having issues on our end between roughly 11am to 2pm EST yesterday. It should be back to normal now. On public servers, sometimes you won't be able to send invites when the empty slots are taken up by players already in progress of joining the server.

This happens only with invite only servers and when choosing to create a party before finding a server, it doesn't matter if I press x on the Invite menu it just clicks and does nothing no matter the number of times pressed.

Just wanted to say that I'm also having this problem, but a friend of mine was able to invite me. Not sure why he can invite and I can't.

I found a way to invite friends





1: open the game
2: go to Matchmaking
3: set the game "invite only" ( if you wont play only friend )
4: Start search the server
5: when you're inside the map press TouchPad you go to Party
6: Press "X" in you account and open you profile
7: in you profile search the Running game (KF2) and press "X" for open it
8: Take part in session
9: at this point the map reload and when you'll return in the game you have the chance to invite a friend

i testing in and work !!


sorry for my english im italy.

This should be addressed in the latest patch 1.03 for PS4. Let me know if you experience similar issues post update.

Full patch notes available here:

Hi,

still having the same problem after the patch can't choose to invite before finding match, keep getting cannot invite players because game session has ended after finding a match.

Just writing to say still having the same problem and valerio-nitro quick fix doesn't work anymore either, see it isn't only on this platform, seems to be network and server related, will it ever get a fix?

What you have to do is press X a couple of times before it finally opens up the menu to invite your friends. Sometimes it takes more than 1 click. Other times it you have to spam the X button. It needs to be fixed but it definitely works

 

[Riddler_Tam]

I've pressed X countless times and it still doesn't work, I know it's worked for others and then some that doesn't, it's over a year now and still having the same issue, shouldn't have to spam a button at a chance of an invite its silly, spoils an otherwise great game to play.

Two years has passed and you still haven't solved this! Do you know how much I hyped my friends for this game?
