Trouble seeing games/logging on

[ichi]

Lately I've been unable to see newly created games. I relog after each battle but then when a new game is hosted I can't see it until I relog again.

Now, when I log on the 'Logged On' screen hangs up for about a minute. When I enter the lobby ALL of the player names are highlighted - none are grey - and I can't enter any games. Sometimes I get disconnected from the server.

If I relog again and again eventually it works, and I'm able to see games and chat. Once I'm in a game it seems OK, no trouble there.

Its just a pain with so few games up, I hate to miss any good ones and relogging multiple times is a pain. Either the game is buggy (Duh!) or my install has become corrupted. I guess I'm too lazy to reinstall MTW, VI, the 2.01 patch, Samurai Mod, and the mappacks.

Anybody else experience this?

Unfortunately this has become a common problem for lots of players recently.I know of a least 10 players who said they have this problem.I will email activision support today about it and post any response I get.

It may be usefull to see what firewalls/security ppl having this problem are using,so if you post here can you state your firewall etc.

Im using SP2 firewall.

I've had that same problem for a while now, I just learned to deal with it. I was under the impression it was my computer using to much memory or the game being corrupt...I feel the same as Ichi just not wanting to go thru the the whole re-install process with all the mods, mappacks, and such already in my VI files. Let's hope for the best if Activion replies...

I don't think it's about firewalls or re-installation. Probably something to do with the particular servers, although that's surely more of a guess than an educated opinion heh

Well, I can understand being lazy on reinstalling MTW and VI (and the patch :p), but why get the others ones installed as well? No one uses them anyway...
