I purchased this game when it came out to play with my friend on Xbox One, via Xbox live. Although we have no other issues with other games, this one would not allow us to join each other, failing to connect each time. As of tonight, the problem persists. I'm constantly reminded of the definition of insanity being trying something over and over again and expecting a different result. . .
We can connect to randoms, other friends, et cetera, without issue. The problem is specifically linked to us and only us, which is a shame because I only wanted to play it with him and have therefore not yet played it.
Things we have tried and checked: -- Each other being the host. -- Going fully into the game (and checking the connectivity menu), and inviting through there. -- Inviting via the game in its various options to invite, or through the Xbox home menus/party menus. -- Joining each others games via the join menu -- Opening our NATs. They were already open, as far as Xbox one said, but we each called our internet providers and had them make sure everything was open and ideal for gaming on the Xbox. -- Calling our internet providers (see above), and discussing any issues with them. -- Calling Microsoft help. Spent an hour on the phone with some dude, who worked us through several fixes, all of which failed, and he eventually said, quote, "I don't think there is anything I can do for you." -- Unfriending each other, deleting our accounts from our xboxs, re-adding our accounts, and re-friending each other. -- Reinstalling Divinity. -- Creating new xbox live accounts, which also could not connect with each other.
Other notes: -- We can connect with any and everyone else in this game. -- We can connect with each other in every other game we play just fine.
