have you tried verifying the game files?

1. open steam library
2. right click on game
3. choose Properties
4. Local files tab
5. Choose Verifying integrity of game files

Not being able to make or join multiplayer appears to be a known problem with game, I can see posts from 6 years ago.

Is everyone on the same version?
