i’m MOORing!

[rigid notch]

If you’re in a large squad, It may be because of that. The fix is to create your own small squad, set the large one as your main squad, then look at the small squad on the menu.

[cerulean meteor]

I'm not really in any squad... In fact I'm rather new at the game

[formal star]

is there any way I can change "per-sound" volumes? Specifically I want to make some of the artillery/explosions quieter or turn off the noise completely

[slim raven]

Paid 25 euro to watch a damn deployment map without spawn points available. What the hell is it

[fading mesa]

Know this pain, reinstal game and should be good

[cedar breach]

for some people the problem just... fades away

[junior summit]

Its a spectator's sport

[manic prism]

Hey when ever I join the game I get kicked out and is given the message Connection Lost: Your connection to the host has been lost would anyone know why this is happening. Thanks

[viscid bay]

What is a relic war plz? My reg said war 94 was one

[cedar breach]

a normal war with bunch of special vehicles available for both factions to construct

[fiery pike]

Instead of Wreckage nodes scattered around the map, there will be Relic nodes, and hitting them with a hammer will give you Relic Materials that can be used for special vehicles. Last time we had a Relic War was 81, and the next war is 94. Check the post in #announcements to see what the vehicles are

[rigid notch]

Essentially, always carry a hammer with you if you’re out on the roads?

[manic prism]

Hey when ever I join the game I get kicked out and is given the message Connection Lost: Your connection to the host has been lost would anyone know why this is happening. Thanks

[ocean spruce]

that i believe is your internet

[manic prism]

okay thanks

[jagged tusk]

How does the war start your local time when the game is a single server for the entire world?

[ocean spruce]

pretty sure that time is translated for each time zone

[rigid notch]

It’s a discord feature, it’s a unified time code that updates based on your given timezone to be accurate to you.

[mighty tinsel]

shard 1 having an issue?

[calm vortex]

I mean, the war ended and is starting a new one tomorrow, so it might be down or something

[uneven haven]

Servers dying already

[plucky needle]

^

[sleek wing]

Same here. Keep losing connection to server. XP

[ruby wind]

can't connect too

[echo summit]

Okay, it's not just me

[stiff leaf]

I cant even deploy from the deploy screen

[echo summit]

Same

[sleek wing]

I cant deploy either. It just says "Lost connection to server" then sayig some other stuff saying that if the problem persists then report it using the support button on the main menu

[stiff leaf]

I just want to fight for the Glory of Callahan!

[sleek wing]

if anything i wanted to try out both sides before i committed fully to a side

[grim kernel]

Why only wardens posting having problems?

[stray fiber]

Dev bias

[sleek wing]

im trying out the wardens this war

lol

[finite gazelle]

dev bias wardens cant logon

[plucky needle]

that won't help tho

[inner island]

the new war started and I‘m not able to change factions

it just doesn’t work

can anyone help me

[plucky needle]

Spamming the report queue wont help solve the problem, it'll at best annoy the devs who are already well aware of the problem I assure you.

If you think being an ass to the devs over a small issue is justified you need to find a better hobby

Not when its some dude brigading to get mass reports in for "server connection lost pls help"

that tells nothing, provides no data

Trust me they're well aware of the problem at this point and no number of "devman pls fix I cant log on" is going to aid that

[stray fiber]

Please i want to play 😦

[cosmic river]

Dev man bad

awwww baby yoda

[plucky needle]

Yikes man you do know theres community rules right? You cant go around calling people special ed bro 😂

[finite gazelle]

doesnt this type of issue give one side of an advantage

[cosmic river]

30/32

[finite gazelle]

dev bias confirmed!

[plucky needle]

It very much does

then again, one could argue the Wardens dont need it, given last war 😂

[finite gazelle]

XD true

[ruby sand]

this isnt a warden specific issue collies also cant connect

[stiff leaf]

Now mine has updated to my connection is Refused by the server

[plucky needle]

Fair, but wardens seem to be getting significantly higher rates of connection drop rn. That could be biased somehow though.

[finite gazelle]

its only biased when a team is loosing

[plucky needle]

Wardens dont lose tho

[sly mortar]

That is an extremely biased statement.

[night pilot]

thought it was because i was korean, as only me and another korean are having this problem

[plucky needle]

Well when you consider I was a collie until about 5 minutes ago, is it really?

[sly mortar]

Yep.

[finite gazelle]

nope , Unuites states east coast im having issues as well

[plucky needle]

do tell then

[sly mortar]

It's happening to everyone due to the amount of connections

[plucky needle]

how is it biased

[sly mortar]

Because this is happening to both factions, and this is not a new phenomenon.

[limpid lynx]

can't connect, having issue for 30 min :/

I was connect on home and it crashed when deploying ;_;

[plucky needle]

Okay but how is the statement biased?

[brisk edge]

i havent seen a single collie complaining about connection issues

[sly mortar]

Because you're saying that it is happening significantly more to Wardens

[plucky needle]

"wardens seem to be getting significantly higher rates of connection drop"
seem to be

as you can also see in the above messages from other users

[brisk edge]

since the first 5 min or so not a single warden has been able to get into the game, to my knowledge

[ruby sand]

thats just bias the collies just arent in fod talking about it

[plucky needle]

Got in, had to run a VPN but connection wasnt refused

[finite gazelle]

What we are seeing right now , is wardens complaining more then collies about connection issues . thus it seems to be that issues are more for the warden side in conencting

[plucky needle]

Which I acknowledged lmao

[ruby sand]

its honestly probably not even a foxhole thing but a steam thing. it is tuesday and tuesdays are the days that steam do their server shit

[finite gazelle]

steam servers reset later in the night

[grim kernel]

Only wardens using steam, collies pirating

[limpid lynx]

how many time we should wait ?

[night pilot]

how long should we wait?

[small bay]

eternity

[finite gazelle]

honestly , if this is more of a warden issue . Devs will need to reset the server

[limpid lynx]

i'm french so excuse my english it's not my favourite language

I'm finally on the game , gl the other :)

[signal sun]

yes 45 min start game

[lunar wraith]

anyone else unable to join shard

[sleek wing]

i finally got in

[ruby sand]

DL server died lmao

like 50 people just dcd

[placid jetty]

+1

[summer moat]

+1

[sinful spire]

+1

[ruby sand]

it happened again

[ruby sand]

ayo 5 disconnects in aw now lets goooooo

[summer moat]

ddos moment lmao

[ruby sand]

6 times now

very nice

[tardy shale]

I can’t even get in from the main menu

[midnight flicker]

Devs whipped out the relic 2002 servers for the relic war

[rigid notch]

It’s Tuesday, which is steam maintenance day. Blame steam, not the devs.

[sly mortar]

Steam maintenance has not begun yet.

[idle wagon]

the fuck is going on with the deadlands server guys

this is really really really really fucking pissing me off

wardens are benefitting from these crashes

[quartz ice]

Actually us wardens are crashing too there it's happening to both sides the server is just shitting itself

[idle wagon]

I know, but your world spawn is right next to the front and ours is not

and most of your sleepers spawn in friendly AI because you are defendig

we are attacking, all of our sleepers are getting killed

[quartz ice]

Oof yee that's annoying i hope the crashing stops soon

[idle wagon]

yeah it really is

[plucky needle]

3rd connection loss in an hour :(

[ruby sand]

8 TOTAL TIMES NOW literally unplayable rn

[tidal scroll]

I've been kicked from the Server almost 10 times now in Deadlands. This is unacceptable.

[idle wagon]

why only deadlands? like wth

all other hexes are totally fine so far as I can tell

[tidal scroll]

Dunno about the other hexes. I know that we keep getting kicked and losing AI and momentum while Wardens can kill all our sleepers and be in safe AI even if they all get kicked

[plucky needle]

Aaaand thats 4

[sharp pivot]

Deadlands has way more connection attempts. It has the most players and the highest queues, if issues are going to happen anywhere its deadlands

[idle wagon]

FC had the highest queues at war start

[sour garnet]

hey just bought the game and im having it crash immediately upon launch with this error

LoginId:7504bcf0485912beac6f9daf2c3a7701
EpicAccountId:

Fatal error: [File:Unknown] [Line: 258] D3DRHI->GetFactory()->CreateSwapChain(DXGIDevice, &SwapChainDesc, SwapChain.GetInitReference()) failed at C:/dev_release/Engine/Source/Runtime/Windows/D3D11RHI/Private/Windows/WindowsD3D11Viewport.cpp:210 with error E_INVALIDARG

(cant post the entire error message cause dyno says no but the rest of it is just "War_Win64_Shipping")

[brisk edge]

try updating/reinstalling graphics drivers

[sour garnet]

turns out my display adapter was out of date

[plucky needle]

anybody else getting connection errors for the shard now?

[ruby wind]

can't connect to the server

[wise swift]

same

[plucky needle]

See, server errors at the war start, I can understand. Server errors persisting 6 hours later? That's where I start to get annoyed

[pure hedge]

Tuesday is steam maintenance day, that is likely what is affecting you all

[plucky needle]

restarting seems to have allowed me to connect to the shard again, try that

[ruby wind]

were you at stonecraddle ?

[wise swift]

Actually, yeah that worked. took a sec but it did

[pure hedge]

During steam maintenance if you’re in game in a region you are probably going to be fine, if you try change region you will probably crash or if you’re just connecting in

[grim kernel]

Anyone knows, why one of my clan members can't read the chat of another clan member?

[gritty jolt]

connection problem

restarting the game will fix the problem

[grim kernel]

Sadly, has been tried. It is a persistent problem and it is the text chat only. Voice works fine, beside the usually bugs that appear at times.
The text bug has been a problem since a very long time.
And only between these two specific clan members.

[tired stratus]

I haven't played foxhole for a while, and today I restart the game but for some unknown reason my game lags a lot, it freezes at every frame even in low quality. How can I fix that ?
The game consumes 35% of my CPU and 40% GPU when I play so I guess my computer is not the problem

I already uninstall, reinstall the game but that didn't change anythings

[midnight flicker]

Check if the fps limit is above 60. If it is lower it to 60 or 59. If it is at 60 lower it to 59.

Sometimes this can cause the game to be choppy.

Another method is setting the resource priority to high in task manager.

[rigid notch]

If you’re in a large squad, it could cause issues. To fix, create a small squad, select your normal squad as your main. Then look at the small squad in the menu.

[minor furnace]

Russian region

[grand hornet]

yeeah

[old osprey]

LET ME IN (Russia) Problem only with shard,who playing - can still play ,with vpn you can join

[grand hornet]

me too

actually at the morning everything was cool

if I remember right, half year ago there was something similar, then the developers fixed everything in a day

[peak lake]

Товарищи разрабы! Кого хрена сервера не пашут? Why are the servers not working?

[terse flume]

на данный момент, пока есть один способ пофиксить это, включить VPN.

[graceful phoenix]

yup, problem is there

[random harbor]

at the moment, you can turn on the VPN ---> log in to the game without error ---> before "Deploy", turn off the VPN ---> click "Deploy" and play calmly

[cinder yarrow]

Cant play and cant send report on that. Funny

[vestal light]

Same thing here
