Title: anyone else discoing a lot recently?
Post by: rabbidrabbit on September 04, 2004, 11:56:53 PM: ever since the last patch.. and I have no idea if it has anything to do with it... but I keep CTD'ing about once every 30 mins or so... I almost never discoed or CTD'ed before but am doing it way too often now. A squadie of mine seems to be doing the same thing.

Anyone else?

I use Adelphia Powerlink cable here in Northeast Ohio for my ISP.

Post by: GScholz on September 05, 2004, 01:47:04 PM: Just got discoed. Host connection lost message ... THEN switch to TCP. Had pingplotter running in the background, no packet loss or anything. So I got discoed even before switching to TCP and without actually loosing contact with the server. Had this problem in AH1 sometimes too, it's definitively the game.

Post by: elc7367b on September 08, 2004, 09:59:03 PM: Same thing for me Hammy, only thing it is hit or miss. Sometimes I can log on and play nonstop for 5-6 hours other times I long on and get booted after about 2 or three minutes. When that happens, I try and log back on and its the same thing over and over again. Play for a few minutes, get messasge "host connection lost switching to.....then connection lost. It happens randomly when I play so I dont know what to think.

Sometimes I stay...or get ctd'd.

But I lose UDP always......usually ok once I relog..

Title: <raises hand>
Post by: chance-airwolf on September 09, 2004, 08:24:55 PM: If it's not a CTD, its an unexpected reboot. Happened twice last night, but has averaged at least once each online session.

Of course, the disco seems to seek opportunities such as when I happen to bag two or more kills or are returning to base.
