Haxor!
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I'm new around here, but I am having a problem. I have downloaded around 3-6 GSC menus. All having force host, and none of them seem to work. I go into a private match, enable it, end, search online and I never get into a match. It will keep searching and it will never find anyone. I have used some of the most well known menus and none of their force hosts work. So, do you guys know what the problem is? And also, I was wondering if I could use a RTM Tool along side a GSC Menu? Anyways, have a great day.

What's your NAT Type? Mine was STRICT but I opened it up and began hosting. Yes, you can use both at the same time.

As TheHiddenHour stated it is your NAT Type but just to let you know the force host is working.. If you are there searching for hours then its obvious your the host..

Thanks for the responds, both of you. And I'm on Moderate, I used to be on open. But when I'm sitting in lobby, no one ever joins.

I have the same problem :( Try this:
1. Turn off PS3
2. Reset your router/modem
3. Wait about 10 seconds
4. Turn on PS3
5. Your NAT should change from Moderate to Open.

I always do that and it works. But if you still can't find a lobby quit BO2, sign out of your PSN account, sign into another PSN account, then sign back into your hosting account. Do this a couple of times and it should work.Smile

Its still on moderate. But, just to clarify, to get force host to Work, I have to be on OPEN Nat Type? Thanks for everyone's responds, I really do appreciate it.

Yes, you must be on Open (That way I get host most often even though I don't have a jb)

It depends on your Internet connection. And your NAT type have to be OPEN (not alway's)

Actually no. I'm sometimes on Moderate and I can still host lobbies easily.

Hosting is all to do with the connection. To force host you are required a OPEN NAT type. To Force Host well you can usually have over a 300 bandwidth and pull host fast, under that it is quite hard to pull host because there is usually more people in the lobby with better internet if your bandwidth is under 300.
