Not sure if it's today, but soon ™️
I got into a skirmish around an objective and saw a whole squad approaching towards the woods I was in. I flanked around and was about to take out a few then got disconnected from the server. I was actually really disheartened from it :'(
its so fun when it works
when the game works its really good and its fun as hell
but then you get disconnected and it pisses me off so much
Just got off the phone with my ISP
They're offering me quite the deal, $140 a month to get 20mbit upload 
He couldn't tell me what the upload was on the gigabit service
Gigabit service only has an upload of 35mbit lol
I have moved all over tried almost every company in the states. The best in my area now is Comcast, which has hands down been the best fiber. Reaching one gig download speed with my gig upgrade.
bro works at nasa
I pay 80 and get about the same in Indiana lol
Oh snap, nice
which provider do you use? Planning on moving to the states in the next couple of years, and having decent internet would be nice
also indiana and i pay the same for 1.5 lol
fuck century link
oh boy, here in Moscow I get 500 mbps for like 500 hundred roubles which is like 8 bucks
Don't want to bust y'alls bubble but I don't believe internet speed matters that much
I am on gigabit fiber and am still having issues. I think I know why but it internet speed is not related, as long as you have a reasonable minimum speed
if you dont have fast internet youll have more than 'issues'
you straight up cant play
have you seen how much bandwidth this game consumes?
Same think i will quit for now, i rate the game a solid like 9+ out of 10 i love it so but cant play for more than 5-10 minute increments atm is killing me
Occasionally get 20 mins and then it hurts even worse when i dc lol
1000 mbs internet
I've been booling around on my server for like 6 hours now
Lucky man
Idk what i've been doing differently tho. Maybe if im logged in as a server admin ?
iv had century before too, its ass but what can you expect. if you dont plan on moving invest into starlink. of course depending on your town too some companys could already be planning on making the move
How many on your server
yesterday we were around max 25. Today its been peak 6 but no one on rn
I think it forsure has to do with player count
I got a smooth like 25ish on a 32 server but the 32+ its been like 5-10 mins tops
the lack of an ability to actually effectively see your teammates and where they are on the map makes it really hard to try and locate groups or squads
Default, why?
try to change it pls i want to check something
And send the IP of the server
78.47.21.241:2002
testing server
change the port of the server
did the devs make a statement about not being able to join servers?
no, muted like always
is there is a way to change client port?
bohemia interactive moment
what do you mean?
your own port
Console fix soon?
it does on server side with the current bandwidth issues
Oh, true
I generally would not recommend hosting a Reforger server on a home network
Obviously even servers with great connection are still having issues, but not to the same degree
I had one guy join earlier and until he dced he was downloading 100Mbps
Idk wtf he was dling
Looks like they are doing some internal updates not too long ago but a dev on twitter said an update not likely today
My DL speed has hit 674mb/s before, but it usually sits around 250-280.
its insane. Most game consume like 500kb of bandwidth
arma 3 consumes about 500kb, same with squad
and thats with higher player counts than reforger and more projectiles and vehicles and aircraft and AI
i've also noticed that even when my server is running idle with no one on it, CPU is in like 90% usage and 9 gigs of ram are constantly being used
Because you didn't limit server fps lol
replication items, probably :P
oh what do people limit it to ?
limited to 60 on my server
I've limited mine to 75
alrighty
if possible if not install BattleEyes the game don't allow me to enter in any MP map, y bought the game 2 days ago and at present time can´t not play in MP
thanks
Without Battleye installed, you will be able to join servers but it will kick you after a few minutes.
ok thanks, so what you think i´m not allow to enter in any , after 2 days?
if you get an error saying something like session error. Then it's the same problem most of us have, Supposedly was going to get fixed with yesterdays fix. But persists for some
you will have to wait until de devs sort those issues out or do a refound and try again in a month or two
ohh Thanks very much, is the same error, thanks
It will probably take some time for them to fix and then polish the netcode
Not knowing much about game dev but server netcode seems like a complicated business to be involved with
personally loving the added immersion from not having teammate markers on the map
makes navigation challenging but fun
I just want to be able to write stuff on my map
fair
i found a server that has apparently fixed the disconnecting
Anyone can write that in their server name!
yeah i thought so too, but ive been playing on it for a long time now
its either that or a massive coincidence, because all other servers have kicked me after 30 seconds or so. ive had the game since release
yep
Sounds like some cs 1.6 flashbacks
I could not join servers the last two days, too and if I accidantally found one, it got me disconnected after 10-15 minutes max. but today it seems to work. had a 2 hours session and a 1 hour session without disconnects...
Hmm
I haven't tried yet today but that is good news
Later today we will also update the Steam version of the game. The downtime of these servers will be between 16:00 - 19:00 CEST.

Published at 19. May 2022
That is published on the steam forums
Are we sure about that? Tomorrow is saturday. but then again it is a big-deal release for them so maybe they have people crunching this weekend
someone posted a twitter post from a dev saying patch incoming, rest is speculation
and it was confirmed it wont be today
When console fix
I just had a good hour and a half GM op. 32 player server max. Don't go higher than that and it's much more stable.
I'm actually giving up, I got two hours play this morning, and it's been shite with the internal errors since then, hopefully it'll be fixed tomorrow
its frustrating for sure
what how and wich server?
I have a small dedi server and I am getting kicked from it, the error on the server's RTP is as follows. Sharing as it might be useful for someone
RPL (E): Reliable channel's order sequence appears to be stalled. Terminating connection. identity=0x00000000
is it possible to play with friends in your own lobby?
not rn but you can find an empty server or something
How do you reset a gamemaster multiplayer mode?
Someone ping me when you can actually play this game
definitely better today
Better connects maybe, every conflict game disconnects at some point. looks like the busier the server the faster it DC's
but at least you can get into the servers now
severs are down
I can't play anything the only thing I can play for ten seconds is capture and hold
I was actually able to play a match of Game Master with a decent amount of people in it for a surprisingly long time. That's been the only match I've been able to actually be in for longer than a half hour
f this, I'm gonna try to refund
Does reinstalling help at all?
Nope
I can’t even play the game on Xbox
Inb4 the anime avatars spam you with "It's your fault for expecting core features to work in this tech demo"
Even though they never said it was a tech demo 💀
"“The game currently includes most of the core features and supporting systems. However, throughout Early Access, we plan to have 3 major updates, adding more content, such as: new weapons, artillery, new gadgets.
We will also keep improving features such as health, artificial intelligence, and destruction of the environment.
We expect the game to mature during the Early Access and shape the future of the Arma series.”"
very clearly NOT a tech demo, and intended to be its own game
i was agreeing
Lmao
Literally shunned me for saying that not being able to play multiplayer isn't good
clearly functional servers and ai that can drive isnt a core feature, dont know why anyone would ever get that impression /s
Tech Demo 🤤
oh for sure, and not having my vehicles fall through the map? Pshhh who'd think that was important
Literally no where on the steam page indicates that, the only reason they say its a tech demo is because its the first release on the engine, so it FUNCTIONS as a tech demo of what the engine is capiable of, much like the first UE5 game will be a tech demo of UE5
i mean at the end of the day in its current state it is realistically a tech demo, and iv got fun out of it but its a bit disingenuous to argue there is a full game here, like i dont mind spending 25 quid on reforger cause im an arma simp but like to someone new to the series there isnt 25 quid of game here atm
And people also use "its early access" to say its a demo. Bro literally the first line on the store page is "We are very familiar with the Early Access release method, as the previous game in the series, Arma 3, also originally launched in Early Access"
tho tbf i doubt bohemia intended it to be this bad as its hardly a good introduction to the new console audience they are trying to build
i think the game would be great if i could play it
and in the time ive spent in SP it reflects that
it is good fun as a solely pvp experience, but its frustrating how it would be so much better if it was just stable
It will be good, the map is great, assets great. They just let themselves down with the servers. I thought they would’ve learnt from dayz
like im helping a mate admin a server and its just been utter CBT trying to get it to be stable and im too scared to even go into game master now because it has crashed my game and kicked random people in the process before
and ultimately we have to understand that A4 Will be so much more than reforger is planned to and will ever be. Reforger may be a ARMA title, but like i said, on principle of being the first enfusion engine game, and based on BI saying they want the engine to be used by other developers, its meant to show off what the engine is capiable of, in all aspects. I have no doubt that A4 will be more like we hoped reforger would be, a better version of A3
the difficulties of ARMA, but with the enhancements the engine brings
im looking at reforger as having most of the new features but none of the old features, like with AI as an example, they have improved in open terrain and being able to fire in the move but the old features just havent been put back in yet like taking cover, navigating urban terrain and driving
it does make me optimistic for A4 but it doesnt make reforger any more playable in the short term
fucking server legit just closed down while me and some guys where in a firefight
as in the server doesn't exist anymore q-q
“Tech demo” 🤤

estimated time for next patch attempt ?
stable was updated on the devs side today so it might get pushed tomorrow
is there a fix for the internal error kick
basically everyone is experiencing it atm, hopefully it gets sorted in a patch soon
thx buddy
Good day all, any improvement to servers today?
I apologize to those that were on the Aesir server, if any of you are here. Server auto restarted :I
Nope
Have ever seen the end of round screen? Yes or no?
https://i.imgur.com/QOUt0Cz.jpeg
Night time bruh
ive been on mine for 2 hours or so
So i like how there is people getting generally confused
when they see an enemy player
legit had a 4 man squad walk up to me thinking i was friendly
told them i was bugged so i don't have a name
over my head
and some how managed to get by
The ak/m16 didnt give it away?

Game is so good can't wait for patches
@hidden shoal just said i'm a american doing black ops behind the enemies lines
hah
love the game
https://imgur.com/a/mB2ePjb neat lil snipers nest. time to wait for some victims
It'd been okay
lmao i drove past a whole ass enemy platoon in my logi truck and they didnt care
we did a platoon sized zeus op and it took forever to get squads set up because everyone disconnected 30 times over
step 1: kill american soldier
step 2: pick up their radio
step 3: look through the frequencies asking if they could hear me
step 4: "THE RUSSIANS ARE OVERRUNNING OUR BASE, WE NEED REINFORCEMENTS"
i've learned
never tell friendlies you can use enemy radio freqs
some guy on a server spouted over an freq i was dialed in on
"Hey did you know we can hear you"
lol
thats actually kinda cool
thank you lol this is actually fun to do
LOL
the worst part i have to say though
is that you can't range the M16 down to 100m
200m is the min distance
So is there not a way for me to host a private session on pc with my buddy?
im 90% sure i said that to some random enemy squad instead of their platoon freq, but i got booted right after, so you cant prove that it didnt work lmfao.
you could set up a dedicated server, but theres no p2p thing in the client
thats unfortunate
if you have the patience to set it up, you can do it pretty easily, servers are really tedious though. https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Server_Hosting
anyone else unable to join official servers directly through the server browser?
always get connection has failed error
and joining without the server browser always puts me in empty servers
i would just keep trying but with servers around 32 or less players, for me it gives me connection failed 70% of the time
Ya I've been in the same position
when server would work
servers working now?
Nope not even close
nope
😭
My profile is linked to my Steam and Bi account, but in game I have no name..Am I being silly or is this a bug?
Does your name start with a "#" by any chance?
In Steam it's displayed exactly how it is here.. Maybe the "R" character effecting it?
Considering they aren't sanitising # character (they use it to identify localised strings), there is a chance your weird R is making it shit itself, yep
Ok mate thanks, I'll give it a try without it 👌
Yep it was the "R" thanks for your help mate.. all sorted
how about they fix the servers
I'm sure they're working on it, with the severity of the impact it's most likely near the top if not at the top of their priority list
Is crossplay between xbox and pc a thing with this title? If not, is it going to be?
Before wanting cross play we want multiplayer first
theyre worrying about making the game playable
Neither of you answered my question.
if the answer was yes i would have said yes
I think you can assume it will be as the UI displays a windows logo which wouldn't make sense unless there would be an alternative alongside it
for now no, but considering the state of things. Dont expect anything of that magnitude for a long time
just search by term crossplay and one of the devs said there is nothing in place yet
Thanks
so in game dev terms, "we'll see"
there was a patch on the 19th
just didnt fix anything
sounds like an update might be coming by monday at the latest
Are there already any patch notes/rumors? So could it help on the random server crashes? :)
you still down to play?
anyone want to play
Are the servers back up is the question
Looking for a squad to play reforger with, maybe also test something outisde of conflict
yeah
Can you not join a server that you are hosting on your own computer?
Hol up... I'm not that dumb... Let me sanity check with that IP.
or i think 0.0.0.0 works
I actually might be that dumb...
Usually, you can access the localhost of any computer through the loopback address 127.0.0.1. By default, this IP address references a server running on the current device. In other words, when your computer requests the IP address 127.0.0.1, it’s making a request to itself, its "local host."```
have they updated the game yet?
What if i don't believe in god, who am I to blame?
I honestly forgot that I can connect to myself with 0.x4... I am in pain at my own stupid..
0x4?
oh nvm
Okay, sanity check worked but now it's the wrong game version... sigh
Growing pains, right>
when i connect to a server it says: internal error has occourred. do you have some kind of solution?
nope
Everyone has the same problem
And we dont know when there will be a fix since devs dont put out any announcent
Of course there will be a fix
is there any acceptable place to advertise a server?
any one want to play
32 man servers work but it sucks its a massive map i feel like im playing dayz 75% of the time running running runnning runnnnnnniinnnnnggggg
Does anyone have a sample for adding multiple mods to the server.config, I have tried but I keep breaking my server
jeeps are handed out like candy though
Try KOTH, its instant action.
NOOOO THE SERVER DONT WORK JESUS
Try KOTH, it doesnt have to sync build objects 😛
i have a solution
(it worked for me) and i had this bug for so long
i do
You need to join a official server (for me i can join then) and then you leave and can join a server with more slots idk why its working for me but i think i fixed it. (you change the game bcs official servers only have 16 slots)
i still got kick nothing change
weird crashes on server..
hey boios, can anyone do something with this error message?
"Reliable channel's order sequence appears to be stalled. Terminating connection."
and then
"identity=0x00010001"
I just cant connect to the server of my friend xD
any one want to play?
oh we all want to play
so sad that you can only even have a chance at playing reforger if you have fiber 😦
? wdym
the game consumes an ENORMOUS amount of bandwidth
run netbalancer while youre playing and youll see what i mean
or just ask any of the server owners how much theyre uploading lol
my dedicated on my machine maxed out at 200mbits upload once XD
some people interested in some modded coop gameplay in a few minutes ? Got a server running, hardcore, no 3rd person, manual shifting vehicles and so on.
give it a try now
Arma Reforger event on Paramarines server # 2 if anyone is interested.
anyone wanna join my gm game me and my friend set up?
I'll give it a shot 😄
anyone else wanna join too?
if someone wanna join our conflict server just for testing..
feel free to hit me up with a pm and i will provide you the server details 😉
is anyone able to show me around the game I just installed and need someone to show me the ropes
sure why not
i've got a full scale conflict server going, 1pp only 🙂
sorry i didnt see your message do you want to hop into a vc?
You have posted this same message in multiple channels now, that is verging on spam, please stop it.
bros just being smart lol, gotta get the message out and not everyone checks every channel, myself included.
yep workshop and server list are down now
Server lists are down for me
guess so
me also
Give feedback about it? Could that work
arma reforger officially closed🤣
Lmfao
i wonder if they're fixing stuff
First BI game?
nope
A3 was the same thing in the beginning. Trust me. I was running a first 4G hotspot to actually play online, while running a satellite connection just for the updates.
but i'd hope that they learned their lesson with dayz
Have they tried turning it off and on again?
bruh that's a different dev team all together
Dayz and arma have different dev teams
Also ya can’t get mad if they put out updates that aren’t multiplayer fixes. Not every team member works on networking
No, because this isn’t the DayZ team
yeah fix the cars
you can fix the cars tho
i hope the servers being down means theyre implementing a fix
id love to be able to play the game finally
Hopefully soon, I havnt been able to find anything about it
good to hear, that hopefully means theyll fix it. I couldnt play on my home internet as its too slow so i played off my phones hotspot and reforger ate up almost 5 gigs after only a few hours of playing
good thing i noticed cause I only got 30 gigs lol if I spent all weekend playing I wouldve been fucked
We're sorry for the inconvenience and will work to resolve it as quickly as possible.```[#announcements](/guild/105462288051380224/channel/175236295147257856/)
give em like an hour for some coffee's and someone to flip the power switch on the servers. good as newish.
server problems, will be fixed sometime later
Anyone with the connction errors tried using the derect conect?
Doesn't work apparently
okay thanks
what does sometime later mean
i dont know honestly just take a nap lol
Are the current backend server issues also affecting "direct join"?
yes.
😏
I went on your Discord bio and now found myself on your ArtStation. Nice.
I havent updated that in a while, too busy, but thank you for the compliment 🙂
hehe, always keeping my eye out for talented modelers
Alpha is fun to try products but suck when shit like this happens lmao
Mo2 had server issues and there was like 24 hr ques that was a killer
Killed that game but armas too good luckily
And of course the mo issues last weeks
Hey are the servers down right now?
Hey, servers still down?
Yep
How do I put ammo in my inventory it won’t let me, also how do I take out my gun it is supposed to be very simple but I can’t figure it out
Right click
To take out your gun it should be either 1,2 or 3, but you can change which it is by dragging it to the bottom slot you want after pressing tab and opening the inventory
Servers seem to be back up
Do people still dc from servers after 5 mins or so?
servers are up now
Noice
So nomore disconnects?
Let’s hope
Nah Im still getting kicked. It didnt change nothing. What a shame.
and still getting kicked for internal errors
same
jo same shit like before
God damnit...
Issues being resolved does not mean that fix is actually pushed to servers and clients
whrever the actual issue lies
I'm looking for more tactical gameplay, like with game master or just more organized confict, any communities for reforger?
hey im looking for a discord server for people who play arma reforger milsim
what kinda rockets do the current rpgs have?
or just play organized
yep
There are two issues: first is the DC issue that hasn’t been fixed (because BI won’t investigate that it’s BattleEye causing problems with recognizing fake malware) and second the servers went completely down which has been fixed (servers are up but still can’t be connected to)
do you have mods which improve the game stability
no not really.. i tryed varius different server settings.. right now we are playing GameMasterMode..
conflict was stable so far.. the server crashed just one time cause of a usable "gauze"
Things seem better now on reforger
They fixed the back end issue
Supposedly
Finally man I had one actual game and it was fun
More improvements are to come.
Hopefully to the point where I done get kicked from the server every 50 minutes.
every 50 minutes?! God that's the dream right now man lmao
Lol, that's the longest I was able.
The night after the steam update me and my mates lasted about 20 minutes tops before we started dropping like flies or the server did.
Oof
Respect where it's due though, it has my mates coming back to Arma 3 for a milsim while we wait for some mods for reforger
11 am in EST time is?
does anyone know how to make local servers?
not supported unless you set up a local dedicated server.
How do i unban an player from my server?
anyone down to help me check if they get dc'd from my server?
sure man dm me
The most perculiar of questions, is there a unit or milsim that operates (partly) on reforger, of ya do dm me because im gonna forget this msg probably
Is anybody still having trouble with the game like I can finally have a loading screen but soon as I hop in into server it crashes to Xbox main screen
Any ideas?
Facts… I’m reinstalling arma3 as we speak lol
Is BI seriously ignoring the possible solution to this? lmao
so sad that we cant play the game cuz of errors
Nothing fixed yet , i wish i refunded it earlier and invited my friends to eat some kebab.
same
So if you pick up an opfor radio you can listen to their comms
If you pick up an opfor map will the towns have opfor labels?
Seems not to be the case
Really? That’s awesome
Yes you can talk to them as well of course. I was watching a random streamer (mikkedafinn) and he was only found out because he used the US names for objectives/towns. Hence the map curiosity.
No, map will still show your factions "call-signs" for the towns, just screen cap the maps from either team so when you have a radio you can fuck with them.
So is there no ETA on the “internal error” bug
I don’t desync anymore just get kicked every 30 secs
Does anyone know how to fix Session Error "connection timeout.", its making the game unplayable?
has there been any official announcement of them acknowledging it though
There have been multiple twitter posts
But those twitter posts also include them saying its fixed so just give it time
Lol
are all servers BI owned then?
you misinterpreted said twitter posts
theyre about a separate issue that came about yesterday evening
Ah okay thanks for letting me know
as far as i know theres not been any acknowledgement of the disconnect issues on BI's part. Probably because they dont want to lose any release sales from people who dont read steam reviews or follow this discord
Yeah the amount of people here having it kinda points at their end
hello everyone
sorry you could already discuss about this
is there a way to play a mission with friends without a dedicated server?
@granite bone any word on them trying to fix the current server issues?
Dont they read this discord🥲, ive personally also sent it through the feedback feature
Ay 313 sqn i like it
how to kick players with #kick commands ? #kick nickname does'nt work
Does anyone know if pc players and xbox players can join the same server? Google says the game is cross plat for pc and xbox.
can do
cross-platform does NOT mean cross-play
it can be misleading at times XD
Yeah very much so...if mods work between the two you would think we could play with pc players
yeh perhaps, but I don't imagine pc players would enjoy 16 player servers lol
Hopefully they can do this down the road cause i go two ppl i got to buy the game 😂 true but you can host a larger number of players
16player milsim ops are just fine wym
I'll take 64 over 16 any day
16 is a bit small for pvp tho.
i take u havent played arma 3 in a milsim then where its vs AI not pvp
arma is sandbox for pve not so much pvp
Fr it’s temporary and not terrible its still fun but 64 is definitely better
yeah I only played pvp on a3
I only play pvp
yh so in my eyes u havent had the full experience
the target audience is pvp
bots are a step down from players
what's there to see
pvp in a3 is janky af and hella dsync
still better than farming mindless AI
I've played the campaign, not like I have never tried bots
u have u used the zeus bro ai is smart af in that
100% not mindless
players are a much better opponent
i guess but the capablitly of planned missions and planning goes along way
you can plan with players?
u dont know there everymove but the creator can change things up on the go and make setup that works well
bots are fine if you got no group to play with, but if you got a group there's really no advantage of bots over players
yh enemy bots not friendly
Some people in this chat have never ran PvE ops and it shows 🗿
Numbers, predictably, skill you can change to reduce their accuracy.
for example u would never come across a player controlled convoy and patrol where as u can program AI to do that and the player are 1 team who assult this convoy strategically with good comms and nav to make a planned attack
you can easily get a team to run a convoy
bots are really just a step down from players
and u would know this with only playing KOTH i assume
You need players first. I have a group of six I regularly play with. Running a convoy with them would be a little sad
I only played koth once
PvE is the best option for Big War feels
if you got a small group, yeah bots are there to fill in the empty slots
bots are a step down from players, certainly, but they have strengths. They may not be able to drive vehicles but bots will f you up if you aren't paying attention.
but if you got a big group, why?
100% to experience the sheer scale of arma map and editor u need botta
Oh, not as allies. I'm talking about their opponents.
u will hardly ever get a 100-150 player server to run successfull ops
depends on the group
if you just got some randoms then yeah you'll prob get some bs game
if you got a dedicated group then it'll be very neat
i suppose but for anyone joining arma u wont find that experience without AI ops
Imagine finding the moment to play with your 100+ clan lmao
like on day 1 of buying arma u cant join a group play ops and experience what arma is about
It is hard to organize a meeting with your two childhood friends
you won't even be able to play properly on day one lol
again, depends on the people. it can be very easy, or very hard
from my experience it was always very easy
ur still in child hood so yh its easy
How to change language of capture and hold mod ? maybe it's possible?
LanguageDefinition "{516CA5DA9BCB536C}" {
Code "fr_fr"
StringTableRuntime "{507F9E4642E2C1AA}Language/CaptureAndHold.fr_fr.conf"
}
LanguageDefinition "{516CAC1F2A647028}" {
Code "it_it"
StringTableRuntime "{D0631172EFC04253}Language/CaptureAndHold.it_it.conf"
}
How to apply a specific language ?
not sure what happened the last 12 hours but went from being able to join and play for hours to not being able to join at all
cannot join any server right now how about you
I know it's prolly been asked about a million times..but any word about a fix? Tbh I really just bought it to check out the engine and help fund arma 4 a little bit, but it would be cool to have stable servers to play on
This 16 player limit sucks
People bitch about questions like this but considering BI has made no official announcement i think they are to be expected. All ive seen is a reddit reply by an alleged developer.
Honestly they should've slammed the steam page with a notification on day 1, now its been a week and we havent got as much as a twitter post
There's a twit post from today
I mean, I havent heard much to suggest a fix is for sure being worked on..im not on twitter either so. Either way it is what it is, they'll prolly roll something out in the next few weeks, not hard to imagine it not being too high on their list of priorities rn though
Backend..I had that issue yesterday, I couldnt even see the server list just said no connection to nackend or something to that effect..is that what they mean, or are people still getting booted from servers after a minute or two?
We have done bunch of multiplayer fixes (versions 50 and 51) and bunch of workshop/backend fixes to 52.
Depending on internal tests, one of those versions will be available early this week.
Further fixes ongoing.
We didn't want to push fixes before weekend, for safety reasons.
Be patient. Sorry for troubles.
is the internal error bug fixed?
This may be one of many bugs we are fixing. Error is generic.
Thanks, Klamacz!
Thx for the info, the game is awesome so far bro
will it fix the bandwidth consumption?
Official changelog will hit few hours before release. I can't comment on what exactly and when will be available.
understandable, thanks for answer
really rooting for you guys to fix the connection issues, game looks amazing but have yet to be able to play multiplayer for more than 30 seconds
Thanks for being so communicative on Twitter and here!
this chat pretty cucked but shout out to the devs
Thanks. Enjoying the gameplay so far, just frustrating at times getting booted.
if anyone is looking for a serve that is stable to join search: eire-conflict
lets populate it and play
Anyone running the modded version that enables loadouts on spawn?
FIX THE SERVERS FOR THE LOVE OF GOD IM TIRED OF GETTING INTO A GREAT GAME AND THEN DISCONNECTING WHEN SHIT GETS GOOD
I think they are trying to fix the servers. Probably have been since it first happened. But how would i know, not like they wrote it 5 messages up
if anyone is looking for a reforger server PC that is stable to join
search: eire-conflict
lets populate it and play
Dude... Thanks for answering, that what the community need, info, we know you are working on it, but talking to people tranquilizes much more
scroll up they said they are workign on it
sure
Yeah there’s a billion conflict servers
the self promotion is real
I just wanna do some quick round based stuff
Yeah, i can't see any C&H servers either
Also what’s up with being kicked out to the menu after a round?
The round ends, the server restarts i think
not my server just one i found thats working trying to help other people who are looking
That’s kinda dumb and probably a reason c&h servers are a ghost town. Played a full match, got kicked to the menu, and then no one rejoined
Well, dumb and dumb... It's probably smart to avoid the servers crashing/lagging. But yeah, being able to sit in a lobby where the next round starts would be better. It will probably come at some point
Hello guys! do you guys have any tips how not to get kicked on 32 slot servers? bcz i really cant play more than 20 minutes than i get kicked...
There was a great KOTH server up but it croaked
Anyone wanna do a conflict Vs the cpu with me and my friends
thats every server bro just join one lol
we want others to join just for the jokes
Hi, any tips on finding servers i won't get disconnected from?
40 and less seems to work
I personally don't get disconnected from 32 player servers
Ok, thanks. So it seem to correlate with number of players. Will try a 40 person server...
yeah dunno man it's pretty wack, fix coming sometime soon I imagine
Hope so. I just played through a night op on a 10 person server and man that darkness was scary.
from a friend :
set your video setting to low, join a server and once synched, put them back to your original setting
it worked for him but not for me, mostly because i have a shitty internet and he don't
yeah servers apparently use a lotta bandwidth
Sounds like witchcraft
you can still eventually get kicked from internal server error after some point for some reason
Are there difficulty settings implemented? I would like to find a server that doesn't allow 3rd person.
pretty sure some servers lock to 1st person only, but you can't sort by 1st person servers in the server browser
neither does it say when you hover over the server, so just find a group or keep trying to join servers one by one lol
lol guess i'll do trial and error
pain 🤣
well if i wanted easy i'd play COD
true true, you must have quite the nerves to play arma
In Conflict, what's the proper way to access platoon radio channel? Do you need to get a backpack radio?
if you're too far from everyone else, you'll need the backpack radio or the mobile truck thing which boosts signal range
@covert pendant press G and then scroll wheel
if you have your team's radios you will get an list of squad and Platoon channel freqs
if you have enemy radios you need to scroll wheel and find that manually
Well the first firefight i had was epic. i loved it. got disconected right after... im going to love this game. Cant wait to play it for more than 10 minutes.
What's the reason to turn off a radio?
maybe if there's too much talking, or if you're going in stealthy
Does anyone want to know why my server was broked?
I put the 1 in the wrong place on the ports...
Attention to detail is what makes Arma such a good game. It doesn't need an explicitly stated/decided use; if it's there, people will make use of it.
How many other games have you played where someone can get scolded for not using the safety on their in-game gun?
Not only that, it demonstrates an expectation for more granularity and more things within the world that are intractable. It shows that "This is what we need the things in these worlds to look like and behave".
Most games don't even allow you to honk the horn of a vehicle or toggle the headlights at all...
Every vehicle in Arma has a separate high beam option that is independent of your default beam, and an option to use your hazard lights.
BI's official sample vehicle mod has functional blinkers.
How could I love any game more???
You gotta flip those hazards on if you take contact. It's like the reflective belts.
This is new
The game is just crashing in the multiplayer menu
Happened three times in a row so far
I hope today we shall see patch
is the servers still crashing and kicking?
yeah
Can we please get this pinned ( will help you guys with the millions of questions you'll be getting on this lol)
people don't read pins anyways
I read the pin in #reforger_conflict as it has the Missions lol
So will we be able to run 64/100 slot servers with any sense of reasonable stability after this?
Sorry if thats a silly question but barely being able to run 32 slots has been very rough on those of us who run dedicated servers that are quite expensive. Also got huge amounts of people waiting to hop in and its just not possible to fit everyone without a minimum 100 slots (preferably 200 xD).
How to inv ppl on scenarios?
Max limit will stay 64 for long time. Current focus is on making that limit work fine.
Damn thats a huge bummer. Thanks for letting me know. Arma just ain't the same with such small player counts.
Well hopefully we'll atleast be able to exit the server voluntarily 👀
Alguien de habla hispana para jugar que me escriba por privado!
I don't think that 1st person lock will be a priority until the game supports working mirrors and viewports in the btr :d
But there already is first person lock 🤔
and people are asking for filtering by this setting
Aah. Yeah, the server browser is very basic, indeed.
I only tried full/semi-full/empty filter and no matter of selected settings it'd just blank out the list
64 players is very high by arma standards, higher playercounts are a relatively new thing anyway
u ever played arma before?
u ever replied to anyone before?
your dad stinks
russian A3 tvt servers with like 200 people online
Thats a pretty new thing that came late in the arma 3 lifecycle. We werent playing with 200 players in 2013
I believe reforger came out last week
late uhhh like from 2015
couldve been technically possible but i dont recall many servers with those playercounts
no one really played/needed that playercount outside cis region tvt projects
PLayd a few times with Friday night fights and their playercounts were HUGE
The update is here me brudahs
Server working ? 💀
no
rip, im just gonna check back in in a month or so, adios!
Ambed fail
It's a 359mb update for me. Does it really not fix the server issues? What is it fixing?
Yep im out going back to arma 3
Yep im going back to windows vista
yeh patch dindt do shit
As always
🍿
Patch fixed backend issues. not internal errors, be patient
Report the patch not working …
it is working, as loading is more or less fixed
did the patch fix the egregious bandwidth use?
they didn't claim the patch would fix you getting kicked out of the server
until they release a patch that does exactly that, we dont give a fuck lol
thats the primary issue at the moment
hi iam gonna buy the game in a bit what should i know before playing arma reforger
its rather unplayable for multiplayer right now
if your looking for something to play, hold off
like wdym
please speak for yourself 🙂
unless you have very fast internet, expect to get kicked 30 seconds after joining a server
the servers are only playable on 32 slots, anything more and it will send you back to menu.
how much exactly
people with 200+ mbps internet getting their bandwidth maxed out and getting kicked
300 might be a good starting point
wtf
dont buy yet if youre looking for something to play
only if you wanna support bohemia
why tho?
well, you can try playing or just wait for the patch this week that fixes it
ive just told you
multiplayer is more or less unplayable
and theres very little to do by yourself
gamemaster is pretty fun imo
not when theres like 8 things you can spawn
well thats good that their gonna fix it
8? 8 of what?
meh 8 is more then enough for me
plus there's 3 teams
again, I got no trouble playing on 32 player servers
because like i said you need fast internet to play, those of us without fiber are fucked
the bandwidth issue is at the heart of all the connection issues, and until its fixed, nothing else matters to me
nope
Shit
What does this last update do thne?
fix connection issues
Some fixed bugs
Fixed or continues the same ?
apparently it's more reliable to join, but you'll get kicked cuz of bandwidth problem
connecting to the server, not actually playing it
lol still waiting for most servers to update
yeah, recent patch is probably something that was in development early last week, if there's a patch specifically for the server issues it'll be within a week or two
it being monday and all
I have got fairly poor internet and some 32 player servers are working for me. But cant say the same for all
https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Server_Hosting
for info: server setup that may help with some connection issues
In a normal game we shouldn’t doing those thing for playing
thank you for your input - your point being? that "in a normal game", you don't configure dedicated servers?
Well We aren’t in reforger_server channel I think so
we indeed aren't, yet I pass the word to those who may be concerned…?
I don’t think people will miser understanding multiplayer and server
some people have channels muted - but I posted it in #reforger_servers too, for I missed that one when I wanted to post the info
Thanks for the input
No offense lol
no problem, this one is on me!
I thought at first that you were complaining "in any other games no such thing would be needed", so I preferred to figure it out - and it was worth it, so genuinely thanks 😄
Well I through you’ve been talking about Multiplayer issues solutions that why I have said that
I’m not a server administrator you know
it does help, but server-side only - so far there is nothing to be done client-side, AFAIK
indeed - wrong channel for me 😉
hopefully the next days will bring a good wave of network fixes!
I hope you guys do been wanting to play with a friend of mine and he keeps getting kicked out in 30 seconds
yep, we are aware of that and this whole network situation is patches / devs main priority ATM
it's not even a marketing talk, it's real - people here know what it's like not to be able to play a game, and we are eager for community's feedback for the game itself, not the network connection
I don't have an ETA but know that these network issues are actively tackled internally, for a proper fix ASAP
in the meantime, servers should be configured properly, players should use cable and not Wifi, etc 👍
Hello Team, So far great experience. Don't have much issues with my server and the feedback from the users is quite positive.
Patchnotes state: "Changed: Raised max connection limit in RplNet to 256 to match server config limits"
But servers are still capped to 64?
I think thats just a reference to something engine internal.
Not actually a statement about official server configs
ahh oke, Thanks!
I'm glad to hear this. my community desperately wants to run 100+ slots but it looks like even that dream may be quite awhile off (another dev mentioned that its going to be locked to 64 for a "long time"). Think I might have to run two 64 slot servers then lol.
Really hoping 64 is at least functional after the next patch, but I guess we can't know that for sure.
quick update i can now play official server without external error, that a new thing for me lol
No it's a KOTh server on armareforger..
eh?
👀
Idk why that guy tagged mods
Please don't advertise servers in here. If you are looking for people to play with, use #looking_for_game (but specifically say that you're playing reforger)
thank you
It wont let me stay in a server for a few seconds at most, is anyone else having trouble?
Maybe I should of said, instead of just alerting mods, my bad. :/
NOW ITS BETTER THE SERVERS ?
Can I get a handful of people to idle in my server real quick?
Trying to make it crash so I can get some logs
SR-Servers
GG to the guys we played with on a game master server right up until now when it crashed
it was the best 2 arma reforger hours of my life
gg
game is super fun if you can stay in it lol
Who's tryna play
yeah it was super fun, bummer for the servers
Shit broke my heart the other night when we spent like half an hour getting set up just for everyone to get disconnected as soon as the convoy leaves
Played an hour of reforger with a friend trying to unlock the btr, after finally getting it we get disconnected and i cant get back on the server 😦
2 updates and the same problem continues hahahah
Classic
Lol I've been playing on a GM server for like 1.5 hours and was driving around with a dude
As soon as he started talking about how stable the server is i got disconnected haha
Aside from that, it was my best experience of the game so far
The zeus was doing gods work
What is the difference between the internal error and the connection error?
Im getting disconnects like its christmas after the update. Now also internal errors which are new for me
the connection error would be your PC not being able to communicate with the server
internal i think is the server/game not responding
Okay thanks
after todays update I can't even get a multiplayer loading screen, just constant session error messages. Doesn't matter server count or ping or game type/mode.
is there anyway to invite friends through cross play?
Not at the moment
is there anyway to play with friends through cross play?
and will you be able to invite friends through cross play in the future?
not at the moment either afaik
It's probably not planned yet
the server variable for platform is "supportedGameClientTypes"
not "supportedGameClientType"
foreshadowing 
in #reforger_questions first pinned message, it says that cross-play won't be a feature
i dont think it says it wont be a feature. it says that it isnt a feature
yea i was just looking at that
and it saying cross platform for Xbox and PC is enabled
Nillers — 17.05.2022
Cross platform: Yes - Xbox & PC
Cross modding: Yes - PC to console
Cross play: No
anyone figured out how to stay in a game for more than 2 seconds
not yet
Been attempting for 2 hours
so whats the difference between cross platform and crossplay?
cross platform means a game is available across multiple platforms like steam to epic or origin, or pc to consoles
What @quartz compass said
cross play means that you can play with other users who use a different platform than you
i.e: im playing with a friend on xbox while im playing on pc, and we're in the same server
dumb
Why is it dumb?
no he replied to a user who asked if it will be a feature
Its jokes. Its gotten worse since the last update, faster disconnects
@jaunty rapids Don’t think the free trial for everyone will have really been aiding the situation either
Well maybe not.. it seems weird that its so broken tbh. You would think they have so much experience setting up the infrastructure of online play
Is there even an option to play offline? Even gamemaster mode is network play, no?
Nice, might have to just do that for the time being
you can make your own missions in the Workbench, or download missions from the Workshop
there arent many good ones yet though, its still rather early
is it only zeus mode?
Zeus, Conflict, Capture & Hold (official mod in workshop) is the official content. theres more stuff in the workshop
k cause im just tryna figure out if this 12 month tech demo is worth my $40 beaver bucks
today maybe not. id recommend giving them a few days/weeks to fix the server issue and release some of the 'expected' content (theres rumors and hints in the code about M113 and other stuff close to release)
If you're concerned about It being worth your money, It's a Tech Demo.
Conflict is reallllly fun when it works. and when the servers work and 128+ player servers are back itll be even better
The Functions of the game Itself is Fine
i would hope so that being BI's new engine
yeah the game is awesome when it works, maybe just wait a week or 2. then the servers should be a bit better
There's a Lack of Content, since you know It's a Tech Demo, Obvious Issue's actively being worked on.
i have no issues with a tech demo lacking content it's in the name, my issue is the fact that it's $40CAD
Yeah,
It's not worth the Current Price, but the Game Itself Is actively being worked, and Has Experiences to offer, Wait till you want to play It I guess
id say only buy the game if youre a modder, or youre really curious about how it plays and willing to struggle through the bugs for the next few weeks
or if you wan't to support bohemia 😄
^
supporting is one thing, i'd have no problem throwing them $20 even for nothing but $40 for something that has issues
I really like the game personally. Sure it has it's issues, but it's the only game that has scratched my itch in the last year. But i completely agree, the price could be lower, but it's fine with me, i just think of it as supporting Bohemia for the games they make
thats fair
Personally, There's just a few Issues regarding the Difference between this Engine's Version and Dayz Active version, Then the Main ones the Server Issues and that's It
its like a felt a disturbance in the force, i reinstalled arma 3 about a month ago after a year long break... and here comes a new arma 
reinstall arma reforger and we'll have arma 4 next month🤣
with even less content and even moire bugs :p
true true haha
spawn killing in this game is absolutely insane
you literally only spawn in 1 exact spot
so people just watch that spot
yeah thats just part of the problem though
the game allows you to keep spawning at a spawn-point that is being overtaken by the enemy at the same time. that shouldnt be the case...
if you die and respawn as fast as possible you might be able kill a person before he even has time to complete the radio-overtake action
the moment enemies are inside a base, the defenders shouldnt be able to respawn there 🤷
no people aren't even taking the objective, they just spawn kill
that means that base is overtaken if they can just safely sit and keep spawn-killing you. once they fix and not allow players to respawn in an over-run respawn point this issue will solve itself
just spawn somewhere else and play the objective
actually, it might come later as there's no date lol, and they'll only start working fully on it when reforger is done (in a year or so)
Just want my huey for air support in conflict
prob coming in 1st or 2nd major content patch
I mean I'm not worried, gotta get used to the land layout too.
facts
Small conflict has helped alot more for land layout...
is that black screen radar shit still an issue?!
anyone have issus same with joining server now always session error
the game has been broken since launch unfortunately, they are trying to fix it
so some players can play some not
most cant some can apparently need to join server with low population on specific game mode
i was never able to get into a game and refunded it before it ran out, some users have spent 15 hours in the main menu just trying to get in, its basically a shit show
the game keeps kicking me off from servers due to "internal error" is this because the mods that I have installed?
Happens to me with or without mods
I disabled all the mods, this fixed the problem for me
And the game just crashed
Nice
game isnt a tech demo, stretching it its an engine preview, but reforger isnt a demo, stop calling it one
the only ones who call it a demo are people trying to defend its abymisal EA state
....It's not A4 now Is It, It's In an Incomplete state, That's Showing and Demostrating and Showing an Example of something Incomplete.
That's a Tech Demo, An Engine Preview Is what they provided when they Showed off the Enfusion Engine.
if you expect a full-on game right away, spend your money elsewhere lol
only purchase reforger if you are down to help bohemia iron out issues and develop new features
we're basically the QA lol
this is fuking annoying its like every 10 minutes
is there a solution for this, or i just have to wait till they fix it?
Wait till they fix @prisma sundial
Its a server issue
I can only get into a server for like a minute
conflict in mp will always kick me out after 10 to 30 minutes, but have been having success with the gamemaster mode with over 32 people, koth works too, sometimes, but the fps is not really optimal in that gamemode
In my opinion, the best reason to buy this game is if you want to develop mods.
The "player" experience right now isn't there, but it will be soon, hopefully.
oh it's there you just gotta have patience
i just ran into the stupidest bug
story of all arma games
apparently if you drag a BTR's turret into the trunk it deletes the turret and puts the gunner in limbo
the devs didnt think that someone would be stupid enough to try to drag the turret somewhere else
Me: Runs out of room to grenade in opposite room
Valik: Stays in room and is the one who dies to the grenade...
I thought the grenade was just a joke
It was outside the room lmao
Cheers lol
ok seriously
the fact levie military base is the only zone in conflict that allows players to spawn while being capped is fucking dumb
can someone help me with my custom scenario not working please
My Buddy just posted a server and we need lots of people to come test it name of server is Palehorse Tactical just type Pale in search
you think you can get me in contact with him
cause i need help that would be very much appreciated
i really can not wait for reforger to work in multiplayer. it is so promising
I try to download the capture and hold mod but it keeps failing
anyone know a fix for this?
anyone news on server issues being fixed?
None but I’m having issues too
Amazing how many people don't seem to be able to differentiate between an tech demo and a game.
Well it’s the price of it, people assumed it would be working a bit
servers still broken?
always the same internal error when I try connect to a server
I would say i'm having an easier time in serves but still get disconnected often
This is a game, the definition of a game
I rest my case.
Doesn't matter if you consider it a tech demo. It's a game, and priced at $30 USD. It should be atleast playable on release.
It's a tech demo/development platform. They made that clear. People need to read up on what they're buying into.
it should be playable on release. period. It's a paid game
or if you would prefer, a paid product.
It's early access. Educate yourself.
its a public release.
It's early access. Educate yourself.
early access was when it was being played by people privately in closed testing and closed groups. Issues such as the game literally being unplayable should have been fixed before release. This is a public release - doesn't matter what you want to call it. Its the public release of a game and is unplayable.
I'm sorry, but you're wrong about this.
early access is a meme nowadays anyways. This is a publically released game that is going to be developed for the next year or so. It was a public release and it should be playable on release. period.
Of an early access
Its an early access, you should expect it to be buggy and limited at first
sure. but playable at the very least
It is playable on release. Just not for everyone. I'm lucky in that I don't seem to be affected by the disconnection bug. But not everyone is. We buy into or download early access games to help the developer iron out issues etc. You have to expect issues with early access games.
This whole game is a platform for feedback anyways, it's the "road to Arma 4"
its almost impossible to test a live service with ~100 testers and expect the same behavior after you release it to 50000+ people
Im aware of what early access is.
You don't seem to be.
stress testing is a thing. besides, this issue occurs with even less than 20 people on a server
It got better for me
code like this breaks when you throw tens of thousands users at it in unexpected ways
Instead of every 5 minutes I get disconnected every 20-30 minutes lol
the problem may not be happening when only 1 server exists in the pool of servers, but when there 20000 servers
as a game dev myself, im fully aware of what early access is. That's not an excuse for a game to be quite literally unplayable on release
Yeah stress testing is way easier when it's public
Yes it is. You still don't seem to get what early access means.
I know exactly what it is. It's a meme
Again, I rest my case. Willful ignorance. Nothing I can do to help.
They give you the choice of buying this product before its polished, you don't have to buy it
A lot of people are just waiting
and just because I know what it is, doesn't mean I approve of games being released in a state that is literally unplayable. bugs and issues are one thing - but major ones that prevent the game from being played at all are major issues that should be resolved BEFORE release.
you feedback has been noted and stored, thanks.
and now back to the real world it doesnt matter what you think should or shouldnt be, the fact of the matter is they released a game, unaware of a serious show-stopper network infrastructure bug, which they are aware of and are working to solve in the upcoming days. everything beyond that is mental masturbation https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/976019137606352966/978048174486851685/Screenshot_20220522-233208_Reddit.jpg
If it was an actual game and not a testbed like Arma 4 your argument would make sense
I still love the game. it a 10/10, but its unplayable
This isn't a 'release' it's a pre-alpha test platform.
Read up on what you're buying into.
its still a game. its a game and sold at $30. Its a test bed, but its still a game.
It IS a release. Its released on steam, for purchase, to the public. Its released to the public. Don't be ridiculous
Okay and when singing up to this testbed you should know that these bugs can happen
lol. 10/10 but unplayable. You make no sense. If it was 10/10 you wouldn't be complaining about it. 🤣
none of this are excuses for a game to be released in a state that is literally UNPLAYABLE.
Released as an alpha
even Tarkov was buggy as hell but it was still playable on release
Well, I got 20hours of playtime since release. That's opposite of unplayable IMHO
You're right, the devs knew about a problem you need thousands of players to discover and still released it
How evil of them
ive not been able to complete a SINGLE match without getting booted for internal error. That's a major bug that should have been squashed before the public release, end of story.
im not saying they are evil lol
Haha, ok. I'm out. You can't reason with stupid.
tarkov was hardly playable on release, it actually had the same issues with bandwidth, i ran the same tests and found similar clues https://forum.escapefromtarkov.com/topic/37405-is-this-game-peer-to-peer-or-something-whats-up-with-the-netcode-so-bad/?do=findComment&comment=696497
goodbye
tarkov had x10 or worse bandwidth requirement than any other game at the time https://i.imgur.com/5sdMWzK.png
Lol
Arma Reforger takes x5-100 more bandwidth than Tarkov did in 2017 when i ran these tests btw
you were able to complete games and complete the gameplay loop despite there being issues. The game was "playable"
no you couldnt, disconnects were constant
it took them months to fix it
also inventory desync was an issue the same way as it was in dayz SA
I'm a little upset you would say that given how many people are having game breaking issues like serious connection issues, it makes it sound like you treating the issue as not a big deal. Just my opinion.
dont bend the facts tarkov clusterfuck was only 5 years ago we still remember
Im aware there were disconnects, but itw asnt EVERY SINGLE match. There was also big desync issues as well, but the game was still playable. IT was possible to complete full matches. There shouldnt even be an argument that the game is unplayable currently with the disconnects
Im loving reforger and you guys are acting like im shitting on it lol. Im simply saying it should have been released in a state that is atleast playable
and its unnacceptable that its unplayable on release
And we're telling you that this game is a platform for testing
im aware....
It's a bug that they're working on fixing
I'm at 8.1hours on steam, multiplayer only, and have NEVER, not once, finished a round. I don't know what the end of round screen looks like.
same.
cool story
and it being a platform for "testing" is not an excuse.
Lmao
If it has a price tag, it should work to a playable extent, I would not call the game playable, fix the connection issues, then yes.
how can you even test a game when you cant do anything and it boots you
this 100%
it should AT THE VERY LEAST be released in a playable state.
Wait so, if it's a problem they can only discover by having a large amount of players stress the servers
How do you expect them to find it?
just find it 4Head
have you never heard of a thing called stress tests before?
that should be done well in advance of a public release
Yeah they should just fix the multiplayer 🙄
Then just don't buy the game
Problems occur with any amount pf players in the server. I hardly believe a closed alpha wouldnt have discovered that
the fact that you think its acceptable to release in an unplayable state is mind boggling.
they easily could have filled servers. Max right now is only 64 players
the fact I did buy it, with money, means it should at least let me play
and they did do closed testing with content creators and the like
and yet almost every live service struggles with the same problem - diablo 2 resurrected, diablo 3, wow, path of exile, lost ark, new life, tarkov, dayz, battlefield, battlebit, pretty much any game you can think of in the last 15 years that releases to 50k+ players at once has these issues, because these are issues you cant stress test without releasing them to 50k+ players 🤦
Yeah I read the big box that says the game is in alpha, I also saw the stream and understood that I'm testing a platform
you are clearly not understanding the issue
A game release that doesn't have any issues is probably a failed one lol
Then test them, without charging
im not an armchair developer so maybe youre right, how could i
"armchair developer" lol
As opposed to desk chair developers? 😜
Don't forget the head-desk developers. You can recognise them on their red forehead
i got an AI to enter the BTR turret during a game of Conflict online, the gun was out of ammo so i couldn't see if he would actually shoot, but he was definitely looking around at stuff
WW3 is in paid beta.
@sharp ravenNo, they have a free stress test right now
oh awesome, i'm gonna try and get the dude inside of one with some ammo to see how that goes lol
That literally doesn’t change the fact that it’s a paid beta. The stress test was for the weekend and got extended a few days.
It has been in paid beta since October 2021.
And has had multiple server issues and outages
So you really didn’t make a point at all
but it works the majority of the time, while this does not
Now, yes. 6 months later
I have completed many games of WWIII, I have not completed 1 of Arma
For a game that is also a few years old.
I have completed many games of Reforger
