    just back out and try another one,shouldnt be longer than a minute to get into any game, if that doesn't work back out to the main menu & try again from the start

    sounds like you may have a NAT problem. does it say your NAT is open in the lobby?

    what ISP do you use?


    actually, now i think of it, getting into MW2 games does take flippin ages. im playing MW1 again, and it roxx.

    ya at the menu it gives you your NAT type, an indication of how well your configuration is connected,

    NAT : Open, Moderate, or Strict

    Open being the best obviously

    I played last night after a day on the beer (FFA), don't think I got more than 5 kills in a game! Always finished in the bottom 2! Don't drink and play!

    Ignore this advice! Drink and play! :D I drink and still get my AC130 in most matches, it's so much easier to get it now with all the new people!!

    I was after doing the 12 pubs of christmas, so I was pretty drunk! Also unlocked the m16 with 3 burst fire that was hard to get used to when locked!
