Game Crashing when joining others

[Jbangalanga]

Hey, a friend of mine just started playing yesterday, and his game crashes every time he tries to join my game. But, when he makes a game of his own, it works fine.

Has anyone ran into this type of problem before?

Ports on his PC may be reserved for other games? As host I assume you have a different port. I'm guessing pretty hard.

@Skyefallen, I thought blue burst had a fall back to lobby on failure to join a game for any reason, but I could be wrong as I've not had this happen recently.

@OP, need more info about your friend's set up. Do they have UPnP enabled? Are any ports blocked for any reason? Can your friend run solo games? Does he crash when joining anyone else? I know there was a glitch in V2 and early BB where if the game censored your name for any reason it would crash the client (if your character name matches your forum name, it would censor bang).
