Joining games with no one in them

I go into crossfire, select quick match,
it does the whole searching for game
connecting thing, but then once I load
there is no one in the game. It's just me.

I have checked my internet and everything
thats all fine so please don't try and tell me
its my sh*ternets. If I wait 30-60 mins then
I will get two people in the game (two people
every time) and once I waited about 3 hours
and got to about 5 people and thats the only
game I've played all day (I did not lag during
the game at all)

I am confident that there are people playing
this game other than just the 5 I encountered
for that one game. Yesterday it was working fine
and I was playing games that were full all day,
and I just really want to play the game right now,
so can someone help me? Please?

First off if you join the room alone that means you are the host and should have little to no lag. Second if noone if joining you might not have an open nat.

it means ur internet sucks to much to join a game so it makes u a host and then forces people to join u and then everyone hates the game cuz of ur shitty host

Red Rain was that necessary?

yes
