AAH I CAN'T PLAY MULTIPLAYER

Post by Jearb »

Help! I'm with my friends, and we keep trying to host a game, but the when other people try to join it, it says no games are available. What should I do, or what am I doing?

I’m not to sure on this one, I’ve never played a multiplayer on WZ. But, if one of your friends are hosting, try to join his/her game by typeing the host’s IP address. Make sure you have firewall down also, that may block any attempt to join and host games.

I have no idea how to do lobby games. Maybe someone that has played multiplayer can explain this one better than I.

Don't forget to open the 9999 port in TCP.

dont forget to join the xfire clan, to find other warzone players.

u can join games that you arent hosting if ur firewall is blocking.

If you get that message, then either the master server couldn't connect with the host, or the clients can't connect to the master server. (If using the lobby) This can be a firewall/router issue.

If you get that message when they are using connect via IP, then the issue is a firewall/ router problem most likely.
and it ends here.

What if I don't get a message at all? I click "join game" and the lobby is simply empty. I am trying to host a game but my other computers cant see it.

I am on a mac. Does that have anything to do with it? :-S
