Then you are the exception to the rule, my friend. Enjoy your game while the rest of us throw our controllers across the room every time we get dumped to the "This game is no longer available." screen. I love that screen so much."

i am havin a lot of issues for it.

I tried getting into any kind of online game and it kept saying the game is no longer available. So me and my friend tried invitnig eachother to games, same thing happened. So I can't get in.

I've been playing the crap out of this game online with two of my buddies.  The problem seems to be different for everyone, but something you guys might try is playing without the games chat.  Two of us talk in private chat, and the third sends a chat invite to someone who isn't online, which then takes you out of the game chat (and unfortunately out of the chat with your buddies).  Before we tried this we couldn't get more than a few minutes into a game, but since then we can play for hours no problem.  Obviously not an ideal fix, but it's something you guys might want to try out.

Hmm.... I played CC for about 6 hours today with my friend with 0 problems, not even a hint of lagg.
Don't really know what kind of problems you guys are facing though I've only played the game for 1 day.
I live in Norway though if that's to any help?  And i have not tried any random matchmaking yet.

Cook, Teenz, and myself just played for an hour or so...we would have very light lag throughout most of the game but in the final stage...when the last health bar was nearing it's end it would stutter and kick us all to the "Game no longer available." screen every single time. We tried 5 times in a row...go through the last stage...but at the last moment - lag and boot. It's so infuriating I'm almost at a loss for words. It makes me want to hold Tom Fulp down and make him eat grass.

There's really nothing left for me to do at this point but go drink more Guiness and try to forget about it I guess.
