Good luck all

Nope. Tried it. Doesn't change a thing. :/

I did it same way Jimmy said...still the same: Alone in the lobby.
Deleted the game, installed it back again, startet WT mode but nothing

Dunno if its because I have to wait for a person who did it same way but well.. no game yet!

Edit: By the way, women WT works fine as always !

Sorry if I got everyone's hopes up, but I wasn't even getting an exhibition match online before I did the delete thing. As soon as I deleted the game data and reinstalled it, I was able to play a quick exhibition match online this morning.
Is it possible that this is continental thing? I'm in the UK and some friends here are having the same problem but I received a msg from friends in the USA (They Are North Americans - groan) and they could play fine.
Really getting frustrating now!

@ tiger and boruzze

thx for testing and report. When im at home i will create a female player and test the women WT.

@chederer

When that works im very interested to hear what on sony-server-side cause connection problems with only one specific game and only one player gender :roll:

Hey Jimmy, it have to conquer this NAT shit since i join ITST about 2 years ago.

I try to explain it in my words:

Your xbox live connection has 3 kinds of connection:

Number 1) FULL CONNECTION (all NAT ports open)
Means: You can play against anyone and there s no problem.

Number 2) AVERAGE CONNECTION (some ports are open, some not).
Means: You can play against people with full or average connection.

Number 3) STRICT CONNECTION (not many ports are open, most a close).
Means: You can play only against people which have all ports open.
Unfortunately this is my fate. If my opponent is Nr. 2 or 3 (as me), i have to go always to a friend s home who has Nr. 1.

Thanks Niten, but I have PS3 and think I have Nat 3 whatever that means?
Thanks anyway!

YES FRUSTRATING!!!

This has to be solved. Im really intrigued how many people are affected. There are alot sufferer here, in the ps3 section of this forum, on facebook and on the 2k forums.

Is it really a continental thing? Are people here with no problems??? (PS3 + europe) What about the PS3 VIPs here, fedfan, tombs, ita, likos, swifty, etc.., can you play online normally?

Why does it work for the woman wt?(This is the only online mode working + match invitation) Different server? Less traffic? Different matchmaking?

I have always suspected that the servers are not able to handle much of a playerload. I did notice before that the more people online at a time, the less well WT worked. I usually played at times of the day with less people on because there would be less problems. But after PSN went back up there seems to be a lot more players online and that might be the problem. Some of the minor tournaments still work when there aren't many people playing in them.

Does 2K even care, or will this game remain broken forever?
There is no reaction whatsoever from the 2K side even on their own forum, although they MUST be aware of the problem.

A game like this is doomed without functional online modes.
It was bad before the hack, but now it's one ridiculously massive fail.
Especially on their part for not communicating with the users.

How could they release the game like this, seriously?

Agreed mate. I've given up contacting them by facebook and by the 2k sports website. It just falls on deaf ears.
