Waiting for master

[mellow fox]

Hi there, just wanted to let you know—I haven't played GTFO in a while, so my friends and I installed it to do a few runs. That's when this error popped up: everyone else could join each other's games except me, even when I was the host. I also tried the game's matchmaking, but whenever I found a match, it would kick me back to the main menu instead of letting me join the lobby.
We read all the solutions on Reddit and Discord, but none of them worked for me.
(Sorry if this doesn’t make sense—I ran it through DeepL; I speak Spanish.)

Have you tried clearing the download cache on Steam? This fixed it for a friend of mine

That should be one of the solutions that I listed in the common connection error solutions page
