2 "Server connection error: Some social features may be unavailable."
SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE: Anytime trying to access friend list, join a friend, or they try to join me I get the error
"Server connection error: Some social features may be unavailable."When I restart my PC or game and I am quick enough, I am able to join a friend and ready up. I manage to play a full match. However after the match I am kicked from lobby and then unable to access friends list or join match's to anyone on my friends list. They are unable to join me.
