+1 we had same issue today

how can the devs still let this be an issue 2 years later? wow i see why the game was on sale now. all the devs do is add dlc and forget to fix game breaking issues. how sad

yes, coop is working only for 2 people, 3 or 4 teammates can't play together, I am sure nothing will change in the future

what a joke this game is, lying that 4 player coop works. incompetent devs

Some friends and I have been dealing with the same issue. It’s ridiculous that this is still an issue.

When I host we had no problems playing with 4, couple of niggly rules to follow from launch to get them in, once in, it ran fine. It is a pain if you get a random CTD to have to repeat it all but they are very rare and sometimes dont happen for days.
Now Ive NOT hosted a 4 player game since season 9 update so apologies if comment relates to last update.
note: this were private sessions, with mods but no crossplay, all steam users.
I'm still a bit confused how theyve pulled off all this connectivity on DX11, well many on here will argue they havent but personally Ive not been trying to use crossplay or open public sessions. So Im happy with it.

what rules from launch did you follow?

Just been co op with someone using a mobile phone as their modem. of course issues when he hosted. none when I did.
niggly rules are when you use steam cloud to save game (causes a tiny frame drop during saves).
make sure cloud save is up to date. then host launch game n start fresh session, use the in game invite (when loaded into garage press ESC and then C) which sends a DM to your steam friend (who needs to be waiting on snowrunner menu) friend presses steam overlay to access the message/invite and clicks on the BIG GREEN BUTTON to play the game. invite next player when the first has joined. everyone on steam, private session with no crossplay.
but it does work with crossplay eneabled as well as far as ive tested. we always mods ON too but off works just as well.

dont use mobile phones. dont use wifi. make sure you have good internet (FTTP for me) where your ISP doesnt block things at all (call them up and tell them to unblock everything) . make sure you have a good router upnp enabled (or forward the ports manually).

I got a mate installing it on xbox right now and will test crossplay out properly next week. will report back on that

Not all internet connections were born equal ;o)

We were able to join as 3 people 2 weeks ago. With issues during connection to server but it worked.
On this Saturday we repeated same scheme, and it did not work. LMAO.

few days ago i was successful at hosting a 3 player lobby. i stayed in the garage and invited one at a time. one user was using the epic launcher as well. very weird

i have the same isue, i think its depends on our connections, when i have good connection wasnt problem, but after i used a shared net from my smartphone i have that... so u have to maximalise the party number to 2 or 3... or change ur connection!

Another weird issue with coop... if a human player is inside a vehicle somehow it's heavier.. i mean im having a really hard time with a crane assisting a rolled over vehicle but it gets easier when my friend jumps out of it? Wtf

Literal years later, and this is STILL an issue.
We're having a real tough time trying to get everyone to play together and I'm about to give up. Why isn't anyone addressing this?

Confirmed cash grab, that's why Expeditions is a complete failure.

Everyone except the host needs to be in a garage in order for another player to join.
