    Default Regarding Multi-player Questions

    Hello Everyone

    It has come to my attention that a lot of people are asking the same questions about the amount of multi-player games that are showing up in their games.

    The simple fact is that the game has only just come out, and many people will have only had it for a couple of days. As such, they will be playing through the single player campaigns and getting used to the game before they start any multi-player games. This means that everyone is likely to see a small amount of games, and it isn't just your computer.

    There are a couple of tips I can give you to hopefully give you more of a chance of finding a game to play.

    The first is to go and post in the Multi-player section and try to organize a game with someone from the same region as you. This is the first thing I would do, as it is more likely to get you a game.

    The second thing is to change the server that you are on. You can do this by going to steam and clicking on File>Settings. From there go to the downloads tab and click on the second box down. Change the server to either the U.K or the U.S.A, as they usually the busiest servers, and they have had the game longer so there is more chance of a game.

    If you have any questions please ask them in this thread, instead of posting a new thread, so that we can keep this forum clean.

    Thanks

    P.S Can a mod sticky this please?

    When you log in on multiplayer, the game searches for ports. It's up to the host as in Steam to have enough ports open. It is not a game problem.

    Mods could be keeping you from playing online. Delete them and find out.

    You could be in the wrong region in the wrong time of day. Already got complaints from Australia and Japan. CA saya it's unlocking the regions with the next patch.

    Have checked your permissions are set to let Steam and Napoleon through your firewall and antivirus? I have to reset mine manually everytime a game updates.

    @Gollrir, can you play singleplayer okay?
    If you are using a router, checked your settings?
    If not start a new thread and post your dxdiag.

    Default Can't connect to host

    Hi,

    I seems to be unable for me to play NTW online. I constantly get an error stating; ''Cannot connect to host or failed to host game''. I tried disabling my firewall and play online but this does not work either. This problem is driving me crazy, I want to play the game online.
