MAC: Still can't login?

[delems]

Game loads up and sits on "Finding best connection", quits after 30 seconds no message. I've tried all 3 settings, now what? Game completely broke atm for me, I knew the update would do that to me

Here are the messages from the last two attempts to start:

I'm very disappointed atm.

[delems]

I tried pinging the above two addresses and I get "Communication prohibited by filter".

[dray33]

I tried pinging the above two addresses and I get "Communication prohibited by filter".

noone helping here so i posted on the facebook page. same issues.

[dray33]

noone there either.

[vstrider]

Same issue here - did the FaceBook mention as well.

[delems]

How many hours has it been? No reply? Is this being looked into? Just tried again, still stuck on finding connection then exit with no message.

[delems]

How come no response? It is right before a weekend; I have a week off, and I can't play. I knew this patch was going to screw things up. Everything was working good till yesterday, my 2 year anniversary. Not very merry right now at all.

This needs to get fixed before the weekend.

[mjh]

yeah, same issues here. this is BS!!!!

[delems]

After 18 hours of trying to log in, it allowed me in! Of course, I promptly Right Clicked and got a CTD. So, I tried to log in again and it failed. But, I was persistent and kept trying. Around the 5 or 6th try it let me in again.

So, it seems like maybe a timing or timeout issue? I can get in to play, it just takes many many tries at logging in until if finds a connection.

[delems]

Well, just tried like 15 times and couldn't get in. So, something is wrong. When it finds a connection it works. Problem is most of the time it can't find a connection.

[kozzman]

Yep same here. Seems like something like this happens every update. I am hoping they get this one fixed soon.

[delems]

Well, screw this weekend and week off, tried 23 times to logon, nothing. I just knew they would fck up the mac version with a release.

[macalex]

Got the same issue. CRS are hopeless. Anything new they do is a right old cluster****. Come on guys get a grip

[macalex]

Fifth time lucky. I set connection to Secondary and got in first time. Not leaving game to test it out though until my next CTD.

[thorpug]

well I'm grateful for only one thing.... its not just me!! This doesn't get fixed soon I'm unsubbing. These last two upgrades have been the absolute worst! and there's nothing wrong with my system.

[duchamp]

Just chiming in here. The same thing is happening to me also. I am a totally new user, I am not a returning player so these past two months have been my initial introduction to this game world. To be quite honest the game is fun, but there is a big learning curve, and these kind of update problems really have hindered my overall experience. Not to mention the fact that this last update seemed to be pretty covert. I wasn't even sure I had to download a new patch until I read somewhere on one of these posts to do so, which explained why I couldn't log on the game server. Now this, the communication or lack thereof from the admins only makes it worse.

Anyways I wanted to give the perspective of a new player.

[duchamp]

Finally logged on for an hour or so, then crashed to desktop. Now I can't connect to server once more.

[delems]

Nope, many mac users are unable to log in; sits on finding best connection then exits. Sucky 3 days so far. If you try over and over again, eventually it seems to let you in. I've made it in about 4 times now in around 60 tries. Sadly, once I automatically clicked the right mouse button and CTD

[delems]

Another 26 attempts to log in and nothing. Really, can't you just fix your login code so we can EnterWorld (if that works) and try and play?

[groog]

Mine did the same thing, hung up on Finding Best Connection for about 30 seconds (or most recent try, 2 seconds, very quick). Then something 'clicked' with the game and it logged me in. I have no clue what could be the difference b/w u and me.

I have Firewall turned off in system prefs. Perhaps this is cause.

EDIT: I turned on Firewall and observed no change whatsoever. Works for me still.

Let me know what I can try on my system to help you out. I'm out of ideas.

I'm wondering if latency is an issue... Do you know what ping times you are experiencing?

I'm able to login and have a ping time of about 40ms.

s!

[dog3]

With Andrew gone and the holidays here, I am expecting response times greater than "soon."

[montyuno]

Well...

Took forever to DL full version, was looking forward to playing a bit for the holidays.

Re-subbed after more than a year off...

So the small arms are even further from RL performance than when I left {see LMG/SMG [i suggest a field trip to the SOF conv, Knob Creek and a library for the staff to reacquaint themselves with these weapons and make the appropriate corrections, this is a sim is it not]}.

The armour game has decayed from a farce to a total farce for AXI.. etc etc..

{also a field trip is in order, consultation and review with a proper Armour expert, make the necessary corrections, this is a sim is it not}

(scrap cross supply whilst your at it, before you add the Americans)

However I have not been able to log in once over the entire Holiday, to experience the frustration umm I mean fun(sic) of playing Axi target drone..

Very disappointing...

I know that you lads are trying and don't wish for these things to happen, it is your bread and butter after all.

There are many areas you can adjust, fix or change that will once again give players an above average tolerance for issues with the game itself.

Maybe step back a bit and look at things, a certain path has been followed for some time and I don't think the desired results are forthcoming, so perhaps a different path is in order.

The foundation and tools are there for you to make a truly accurate combat sim, fully taking advantage of this amazing environment you have developed. In this gaming niche I feel that is what players really want, not a caricature of WWII combat [there are plenty of those] but a sim at least within the confines of what the engine can do.

I doubt they are the most vocal, these players over the last few years have cast their opinion another way, regardless of which side they favor and we see it in the game world today...

Cheers Montyuno

[marcus]

Great stuff, really.

Luckily I created a trial account before throwing more money out of the window.
