Failed to connect to Host server PROBLEM
I live in Australia,Sydney and i've been playing crossfire for a year now, a week ago i logged on into west server as usual. I joined a game and my ping goes up to a massive 400. and within 20 seconds, i get moved to the lobby with an error saying "Failed to connect to host servers" i tried to join other rooms but i still get this error. But for some reason when i try playing in Alpha or Bravo, i dont get the message, but i lag with 259 ping. So guys how can i get rid of this problem????
Have you tryed re-install it? OR Re-download it?
Have you installed a new AV?
Are you using wireless internet?
You have some active software downloading/uploading files? If yes stop them and let only CF active.
use the search feature cause im pretty sure i saw a thread about this somewere
turn off u firewall if u start crossfire then start crossfire with administrator if u use vista or win7 ....it must be work....i had this problem too and i fixed it....and if its dont help u just plug out u internet connection.and start it new...
are u the person from raged that i told to post here?
Tried update your drivers? Or get better internet?
i think that you must re-install CF or, your internet is .. xD
Its ur connection. Get better one.
Failed to connect to host server can happen when your internet connection gets dropped even for a second. Sometimes if your computer can pick up the connection fast enough, it won't exit you out of the game. I have a flash drive that has something on it that whenever I play CF with it plugged in, the game crashes and throws me back into the lobby with that error message. Viruses may be able to do this to as I believe I have something like that on the flash drive.
