#Connection issue
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
Idk if it's important to mention that, previously, when we were playing on our first server, such a problem didn't occur
Additionally, he's from Russia, using no VPN, as far as I know

did you ever figure it out? my friend and i have the same issue?
no 🙂
dang
Hello! Can your friend try to use a VPN we've siin alot of iuues connecting from Russia (you could also try SEA connection service - it will not affect your ping whuile you play it will only required for establishing connection)
We have tried both SEA connection and VPN - nothing works. Everything worked perfectly until the last update.
Anything else we could try?)
Also, is there any chance you guys fix the problem in the nearest future, or it's not smth on the game side?
can you tell me a few things about how you play?
you host from the game right?
ther are 4 of you, and one person can not join?
Yes, I host a server from the game directly
Play --> Host a Game --> Choose / Create Server --> Confirm
All settings are common, but we have also tried changing them: amount of max players, all connection services, create a server with/out a password
Here's what happens when I try to join his server
It keeps loading, then it either crashes the game without any error messages or forwards back to the main menu
On the video, the game has just crashed
did he try to disable that thing that people use to access discord from ru? it helped some people, i assume discord would still work while vpn is on
had same issue from yesterday
solution from screenshot worked for me then
but today problem occurred again and i found no solution so far
seems like save is broken
thing called zapret?
i believe so
He doesn't use that thing called "zapret" at all
im currently using it but my friend also
but he have no problem and im having still
this is saves solution not the connection solution. sir @frosty cedar can you please create as eparate thread so I can try to help you and not mix threads?

Just in case it doesn't work, is there anything else that could help us?
