(Mc1412013) #1

so i tried to get my kids in a ranked match with me against better judgement as we would have gotten stomped on, but hey kids asked to play a match with there dad ojn there team.

so no matter what i did i couldnt get them into a party on the ranked screen. and yes there both low levels but there a few levels past 7 and can get into ranked on there own.

how do i get them in to a party when it wont let me

Odd that it won’t let you. Are you able to invite other people to your party, or does this problem only come up when inviting your kids?

Also, what is the error message or problem that is preventing them from joining?
(greyed out option?, or are they attempting to connect but don’t end up in the party? etc)

I’d take some screenshots to see if you are indeed in the right place, but I’m currently waiting on a new video card as my current one is dead… so I can’t start the game right now. :disappointed:

Can you take a screenshot of the problem?

WAIT. MC. Try this: Make sure you click the invite button that is IN-GAME. Don’t go to steam to invite them, and don’t press their names in the social tab at the top of DB either. There’s a separate menu for inviting people that ONLY DB can open through steam: (SCREENSHOTS INCOMING)

Edit: probably not it… Steam won’t let you even have a grayed out invite… Check to make sure that you and your kids are not set to appear as offline on Steam either.

BUT, Just in case you were clicking the wrong button: You have to click this one:
