To EAs credit, this actually isnt a problem on their end. A couple of my friends and I used to have the same issue with CoD, as well as prev. gen NCAAs and Madden. It basically boils down to your connection NAT type. There are basically three types, aptly numbered 1, 2 and 3. If both ppl have 1 or 2, there's typically no issue connecting to play an online game. If one of your types is 3, it actually conflicts with the connection btw the two users and they cant start their game. There are several supposed fixes to the problem such as opening up modem/router ports, establishing a static IP, etc., etc. but my friend only solved his problem when he called his internet provider and had his router bridged. Im sure someone better versed in the matter can explain it in better detail or if you want immediate answers, just search PS3/Xbox nat type and follow the breadcrumbs.
I have the same issue with my brother. We both have NAT type 2. Is anyone having this problem and you both have the same NAT type?
Any ideas or insight into this matter would be much appreciated.
