To solve multiplayer connection issues in Sniper Elite 4, you can try to get NAT Type Open or NAT Type 2. You will need to forward the correct ports in your router and then check the NAT Type in your gaming console.
- NAT Type Open and NAT Type 2 allow you to host the lobby so you can game while experiencing the least lag possible.
- NAT Type Moderate (Xbox) does not allow you to connect to or communicate with NAT Type Strict players. You can only connect with players that have NAT Type Open or NAT Type Moderate.
