I've got a strange problem when i try to join a friend's game "this game session is no longer available" same when someone is trying to accept my invitation, also i can't find any public game.
Since i am 3 Lv and already played 5 public games i can't find any possible solution, i tried to disable router and windows firewall added ports on router but still nothing.
Reinstall of the game didn't work.
If anyone know what is wrong plz post
thanks in advance

Indeed we were trying for hours to fix his problem. I think it comes from his game since for me everything works with other players. But when I try to join his game (or when he tries to join mine), it gives an error message like "this game session is no longer available" or "you can't access this group or something" like that...

ok guys i fixed it so i post the solution
i had to enable DMZ(Demilitarized Zone) on router settings and add my pc ip

I just check what that is man, DMZ basically = all open ports. I read it can be quite risky on PCs, because people can access you thru these ports if they want to hack you. Maybe you should only open the ports that Ubisoft wrote down on the support page! It shouldn't need any more than these anyway. All ports is dangerous! :O

I've got the same problem. Public games work just fine and when i try to join a friend's game "this game session is no longer available".

Please, can someone tell me step by step what to do to fix this on Win7.

If it says that it shouldn't really be a problem. The bad thing is if it says "Access to group not possible" or something like that.

If the session has timed out it means exactly that. I've invited you a few times but then went searching for a game (I was trying to join someone's game at the same time), so that's a reason for example, in case you got this when I invited you.

Sometimes it needs several tries. But a bad connection can be the reason too.
