"This game is no longer available to join"

No answer yet? this issue is really annoying!

Also having this issue. Between this and the launch bugs i also experienced its really making me not want to play this or any other blizzard game.

I am too unable to join any game created by my friend (who is also in my friendlist) I am able to join everything else.

Same. Can’t join anyone, and no one can join me either. Been like this since launch for me. So glad I bought this single player BETA build that I only bought to play with friends. :expressionless:

Same issue here. I Can’t join friends and more often than not, the game just tells me I’m not connected to the internet… which is impossible because I’m talking to a discord buddy and watching him streaming the game, at the same time.

Blizzard. Please fix this. It is absurd how long this nonsense has gone on for.

Same problem here - first i get “This game is no longer available to join”
and after that i get the usual “check your internet connection message” and after waiting a couple of minutes it is back to “no longer available” even though my partner is still in that game. And when i create the game it is the other way round. (I would try logging out and back in again but then i would have to wait onther hour in queue…)

Same problem. I can’t join my friends because I cannot see any of them online on bnet, sometimes it shows no one online at all or only a couple of people on my friends list and not the friends I want to play with. I’ve tried restarting the client multiple times, going to different regions, and switching internet connections and I still can’t join them.

Did anyone get any answer from blizz in this forum? Ever?!

I’m seeing this issue today. Is there any kind of resolution?

Same issue today. Any solutions? Blizzard doesn’t seem care at all.

My friend and I were having this issue just now and were able to get around it by removing each other from our friend lists. Great job as always blizzard!

This is still not fixed. Nov 2, 2021

Here is a self fix.
Both friends close their games. Choose another region. Make a game and join. Switch back to your original region. Fixed!

This happen to me and my friends today as well. First I see of it. Sometimes restarting the game seemed to fix it.

Just had this issue with one of my friend.
I could not join the games he sees in the lobby nor the one he created.

Are we any closer to a fix on this? It is literally driving me crazy. Some friends we can’t join the same games. Even when I try and make trades with someone we often can’t get into the same game.
