- Moderate NAT Type
- Strict NAT Type
Open NAT Type means that the status of your internet connection and its settings are totally open to everything, so you can enjoy smooth CHAT, you can join or host multiplayer games and you can even play with players of other NAT types.
Moderate NAT Type means that your internet settings allow some of the online features, but not all. The features you can access with a Moderate NAT Type are that you can join games and chat, but not with all of the players, depending on their NAT types. The feature you are blocked from is from hosting a multiplayer game.
Strict NAT Type means that your internet settings are totally restrictive and so you are not even allowed to join or host multiplayer games, chatting with others doesn’t even count as you aren’t even allowed to join others here.
