Hello I can no longer join a Multiplayer or Zombies match after the recent update. After the update on March 1, I can no longer join an online game. Before I downloaded this update, I could join a match within 20 seconds. Now it just keeps searching but does not "Try join potential matches." Instead it always gives me this stupid error: "No available sessions were found. Please try your search again." I know it is not a problem with my internet because my NAT type is open and I have forwarded All of the necessary ports. More info: I can actually join the playlists with very few people in them such as Barebones and Prestige TDM, but cannot join with a lot of people playing like S&D, TDM and Nuketown 24/7. This same problem happens to me on Modern Warfare 2. I hate you Activision! I want a refund! Angry Face! Is anyone else experiencing the same problem???

You're not alone. I emailed Activision last night at they told me to make sure all of the ports are open and I'm not behind a fire wall. It was fine on the 28th Feb and now since 1st March I can't join any games? Fair enough if it was just me having problems then fine but there's quite a few people on here and COD forums having this exact same problem. So it's obviously something to do with Activision/Treyarch! Just hope they get it sorted soon.

Don't worry, it's not just you. This update ruined matchmaking for me too. Have you noticed that you can join friend matches and recent player matches but not core matches? I can also join wager watches flawlessly. For some reason, right after I updated my game I can't play core matches. I am trying to fix this by contacting the Activision Support Team but they don't seem to know what to do. The update ruined the game for me! Btw this problem is only on Xbox 360 too. I have seem over 10 other people asking for help on this problem. Sorry I don't have an answer to fix it, however, as I myself am trying to figure that out. Please email me though so if you find out how to fix it or I find out how to fix it we can contact each other. I am also talking to a few other players with this same problem in hopes of fixing it. Contact me at ichewyoui@yahoo.com. I want you to help me prove to Activision Support team that this is actually a widespread problem and that I am not the only one experiencing it, as they have said. Alright thanks

I'm sure a ton of people are going gaga over what could've been a much better online multiplayer experience if it was just bug tested properly.

Guys I have great news. Activision just emailed me saying that this problem only occurs to people with a 2Wire Modem from AT&T. They said something in the update makes the game uncompatible with this certain modem. Expect a fix soon.
