Trouble connecting to server...

Post by oldboi »

Hey a question about connecting to server, i get told server is full. When i check back to details the server is not.
I have try'd different entry types; xfire and threw game internet connection. Has been happening only occasionally but lately quite a bit. Any help would be appreciated.

Odd, that was the same answer you gave him in the "How do I get laid" thread.

Hey lads,
When one gets the logon message that the server is full, is there a way to get in a queue or communicate desire to play, especially when the scoreboard shows lots of no scores or inactive players?

My current workaround is to keep refreshing the favorites filter until I see 35/36 players and then try to quickly get in. Maybe that's the only way. Just curious.

get on the teamspeak and ask an admin if there are any idle players.
If not, ask the other players online to let you know when a slot opens up.

Two things. The server will say it's full after a map change even if it is not because some people have dropped. If you wait a few or just keep trying, you should get on. Also, and you probably already do this, hit "refresh" to update the server status. I forget this once in a while and am frustrated when I don't get on when I though there was room.

Thanks Mojo, but TS doesn't seem to be an option for me. Seems that I drive a Mac when playing and the knockoff, TeamSpeex, doesn't run on my, the most current, Mac OS. Generally I'm only talking about occasional waits of 5-10 minutes so it's not that big a deal.

Unfortunately, the best thing to do is keep refreshing until a spot opens up. Sometimes it might be a 5 minute wait and sometimes it might be 10 or more... really depends on the map.

I have my aim name listed next to my profile, if you see me on TS but can't get in or log on, send me a message.
