This thread seems to feature a high proportion of very high bandwidth connections! I think most people in the UK have about 1.5meg down and 0.25meg up or less. I pay alot more for adsl 2+ and decent speeds.

By the way good work on the proxy update, I can now connect to every-and-any-one. Thanks! Had a 5v5 going earler. Unfortunatley several players dropped before the game was really started, but it is progress. Getting a 2v2 or 3v3 going is much quicker and easier now. :)

It is true that a couple of lucky or clever kills or unlucky/stupid deaths early in the game can pretty much decide the outcome, so if you've alreay lost, why stay?

I'm one of the people that can connect to most but not to a few. Maybe it would be an idea to survey those with this connection issue and try and isolate a factor that could be the cause? You probably already thought of that though! My ISP Be/O2, I'm on ADSL2+ and my modem/router is a Bebox / Thompson Speedtouch 585. No firewalls except the windows firewall. Windows XP. I really hope these proxies will fix it, as it is a pain at the moment to get a game going by av

[quote who="Apokus" reply="19" id="2208191"]Put in a "Surrender" Option at the Citadel or within the Menu.. if the hole Team thinks "ok weve lost the game so lets surrender" its ok... game stops like the citadel is destroyed for example. That could stop ragequiting too because right now a lot of ppl just stand behind their citadel watching the enemy how they destroy their base without any problems.. but that takes up to 10 minutes till it happen... with the surrender option the team can "quit

Heres my experience. Straight after installing the beta patch things seemed to be working well. I got into a 4v4 custom game quite quickly and easily and the game went well noone dropped and favour seemed to be working, as I had a sensible amount of favour like 420 and I could buy a swift anklet. Possibly 2 games went well like this I can't remember exactly as time goes fast when you're having fun! At the end of a game though there was a long delay before the final scores came up as desc

Don't just disable, uninstall those extra firewalls and AV! Having AV running in the background will lag your game, it's that simple. Try to disable your AV from starting when you start your PC and just use it to scan once a week or even once a month. You could uninstall AV and just install it periodically to check for threats.

First of all I would suggest turning all your graphics settings in the game to low. Try that and see if it helps. Also try to shut down every process you don't need before starting the game. Instant messengers such as AIM in the background will definitely lag your game. As for dual monitor. Yes I believe dual monitor setups multiply the work your graphics card must do and will make any full screen game unplayable.

[quote quoting="post"]1) You have been disconnected because the NAT has failed. There appears to be a logic error in the new connectivity system. If you fail to connect to someone who enters the lobby, you won’t connect to anyone subsequently. This is basically a case of a very late night if/then logic needing to be tweaked.

It does feel a bit beta-ish when trying to connect to a multiplayer game. However the game itself is great and it looks like they are working day and night to get it working better.

[quote quoting="post"] Q: What can I expect this weekend? A: If you are willing to try the beta versions, we expect to release build 111 of the EXE along with our connectivity updates. If you prefer the released version, we expect to release just the connectivity update. Q: What should my expectations be of the connectivity update? A: We’ve had to scale them back a little bit. We had a huge breakthru last weekend but the time to take us
