I'd like to know the extent of this problem, because I've seen it reported and I've experienced it myself.

Is your NAT open/moderate/strict? Moderate
Roughly how many games out of ten do you fail to join? 7/10

This could simply be a case of the host not having the required ports open, but I suspect it's something more serious with the netcode, because it's so erratic.
 
GoW had this problem when it first came out. It was soon sorted with an update :) Having a moderate NAT won't help though, you should open/forward your UDP/TCP 88 and 3074(?) ports
 
NAT of open here and not had a problem connecting to any games. Prob played about 20 races online and its been flawless for me.
 
I'd forgot I'd reset my 360 back to factory which gave it a Dynamic IP, messing up my Port Forwarding I previously had, and I'd been struggling all last night to connect to games, I'd say more then 80% failed, or I couldn't see any of my mates games, and couldn't even join some voice chats..
When I set the 360 back to a static IP with manual port forwards, I had 100% success...

I set my 360 to a static IP and forwarded the ports but my NAT was still moderate. I also tried DMZ and it still wouldn't work.

However this was PGR3 where I had trouble connecting to games a lot, I hope Forza isn't the same as I am expecting it soon :(
