anyone else having issues today?

might be due to power outage at work, but since then - i cant stay connected

reasons:

steam connection lost, ok whatever,
client timed out asnwering challenge (like 5 seconds later i was cut off).

i give up

firewall is down, so, not that

it sounds like your client is lagging.

I gave this link to another person the other night he was having same issue he came back in 15 min and said thanks it worked.

AKA: deleting *.blob files, if this doesn't work, I would fall back on the client lagging thing, set the priority to above normal in task manager if it doesn't work (but I hope it does.)

Yes thanks guys, i will try this once i get back to work,its the work rig thats the problem

[Master]

Which is why I was thinking lag, is that thing Y2K compliant?

[Saleen219]

Better be, its not quite that old lol, 4 years old maybe?

I built it,maybe thats my problem

the link that deadly posted so far seems to have fixed the issue. i assumed that since i was just started the game, and the power went out at that time, that maybe there was corruption of files. either way, i can play again yay

thanks deadly
