Damn The New Patch To Hell!

hehehe funny how things go sometimes...

With 1.2 I suddenly discovered I could actually host games, something I could not do in MTW (since gaining a router) and 1.1. Not that I am suited for hosting though ;)

Glad things got solved for you Lumi

so has anything been done yet to address this issue. ive not seen anything from the CA guys on these forums about this problem. very frustrating, i have not been able to play a single online game since downloading this new patch last week!!!!!!!

ive tried playing online tonite and was completely unable to play any games in the friendly lobby. however when i tried the competive lobby everything worked fine, this isnt that great as there is hardly ever anyone in the comp lobby to actually play against. im slightly less frustrated now than i was yesterday.

solved my problem by entering all the correct ports again in xp firewall
6667 irc
3783 voice chat port
27900 master server udp heartbeat
28900 master server list request
29900 gp connection manager
29901 custom udp pings
6515 dplay udp
6500 query port
27750 rome game port udp

dont forget to put udp or tcp when adding ports in your firewall exceptions.this might solve your problem

GameSpy lists 13139 as the (Custom UDP Pings), and 29901 as the (GP Search Manager). I also have 26220 open, but I don't know it's function.
