Server disconnected for unknow reason


(ARES) #1

Very often I am disconnected. Sometimes its normal because accidental team kills.

But this time I didn’t kill anyone of my team and got disconnected.

Afterwards the server was full!!!

This really kills the game.

This “server disconnected” I get very often, and it seems to be a bug.

Please SplashDamage, fix only this bug. The other bugs I don’t mind, but this one, please fix it.

Someone wrote that he was disconnected too in that game. I needed 10 minutes before I could join again (server full).

I never had such problems with the Quake engine based games. Return to Castle Wolfenstein, there were not these connection problems and I have not been disconnected for no reason. Same with other MP games, never had these problems.

ET is based on RTCW. RTCW there are no problems with being disconnected. ET there are problems. What did SD do? Rewrite the network code? Something must explain the bugs.

I say it again and again: I like that game but these bugs and shortcommings drive me crazy. I would have payed 30 Dollars if I could get rid of these things. Its a hatred-love sometimes with this game.

Who says its anything to do with SD? Maybe its the Punkbuster AntiCheat software which, if you speak truth you would know how bugged and unreliable it is from the other Quake 3 engine games you’ve played/play. Quake 3 for one… it just seems ET’s PB is just a tad more buggy than the rest… :>
