Unable to connect via invite in coop mode. Anyone else having this problem?

Might have better luck in getting an andwer by posting in the MechWarrior 5 forums.

It's busted all right, always was. I tried playing co-op, but the lag issues were so bad, it was too distracting to actually play it and enjoy it.

PGI took the "easy" way out when they instituted co-op, minimal effort, using "off the shelf" coding, instead of coding it into the game so we could host our own games on our own computer (as the server, if we chose to) on a LAN.

As it is, LAN is is not functional, everything has to be sent out to a 3rd party server. Which is logical for global play, but not for people who want to use a LAN.

Lame!

Pretty typical in this day and age. Low effort cookie cutter paradigm.

Be sure both players have played through the campaign past the first few missions (I think to where you get the first lancemate). Co-op has to be unlocked--for both players I think.
