Black Ops 4 multiplayer beta is having the “failed to host lobby” issue that is preventing players from accessing the game.
As I sit here writing this article at 1AM, I am utterly disappointed and concerned about the future of Call of Duty. Over the past few weeks I have writing so much about the new Call of Duty game, criticizing what COD has become. Still, somewhere in my heart there was hope, doubt, that may be I am wrong and may be those YouTubers who got their hands on Black Ops 4 multiplayer beta are wrong. Unfortunately, they aren’t wrong as far as their claims about this game’s troublesome development goes.
When you scrap one of the most loved features of Call of Duty, the story mode, and invest those resources to the multiplayer portion it raises the bar of expectations. However, when players around the world (including myself) can’t even access the beta, that says a lot about your game.
As I write, the game is running in the background and I can still hear the amazing soundtrack they used over the UI. Sadly, the music is all I would get to enjoy tonight because after trying for 3 hours, I am not able to access Black Ops 4 multiplayer beta on PC. And I am not alone; one look at Reddit, and the official COD forum would tell the story:
Many have accused this game of being a recycle of Black Ops 3 and interestingly, along with weapons, maps, and characters, Black Ops 4 borrows this issue from Black Ops 3. “Failed to Host Lobby” was an issue with Black Ops 3 multiplayer as well.
