Me and a friend are having lag issues when one of us is hosting the game. It only happens with the 2 of us are playing together. The issue does not occur when a third friend of us (with worse internet connection) host the game. Both of us have good internet and we both live in europe. Does anyone know a fix?

one of you might have a double-nat thing where u both can join a 3rd but when one of u hosts, packets are not going right. #known-issues lists some stuff (asus gamefirst qos software), also if one of u has a modem doing routing (nat) and a router doing routing (nat), then upnp doesn't work right (double-nat situation) .. .. also if either of u running vpn, it can affect.

the third person can host and we both dont lag, when I host it works fine for the third person but not for my friend, and when my friend hosts it works fine for the third person but not for me

it might be as simple as a bad connection between your isp and your friend's, damn shame if so
