Kicked off / connection failed / locked server

[[frl]myke 68]

So, before wasting time with server hoppers and other glitch users, maybe fix the problems for those who like to playtest the game?

 

So far, the most of the time i get these:

"You were kicked from the game" (1 second after joining a server)

"Connection failed"

And a new one appeared today: "this server is locked" although it didn't had the lock symbol in the server browser.

 

I know, it is early access and alpha and whatnot. But maybe putting the focus on the more serious problems instead of berries and such wouldn't be that bad.

 

Actually i spend much more time in finding a suitable server than actually playing. Fix this.

about "you were kicked" and "this server is locked" its usualy called admin abuse

you can report them, so they will be closed and admin's lose money for rent

Nope. Either MP is optional, then it is indeed my issue to track and report those admins.... or i could just switch to SP.

Or the game is MP only, then it is the devs issue to prevent abuse. It is their job, not less.

Ok, another 20 minutes wasted with "You we're kicked" and "Server is locked". And why do i get always (no exception) "connection failed" on server with player numbers displayed as 0/XX?

 

God dammit, just remove kick and lock abilities from servers, problem solved. Introduce votekick if necessary.

Bump

 

Still get "Connection lost" on every server with playercount 0/XX. Any ideas on that one?

Yeah, those servers are down or having issues, play on server's with at LEAST one person, and you'll get in.

Yep, figured that out. Although it's remarkable how many of those "servers having issues" are out there.

 

Besides that, still countless servers that kick players upon joining. Please fix that.

It's amazing how many server admins out there kick people upon joining. It would be nice if having to have the Host company (I.E Gameservers/FragNet) name in the  server description/name, so we could report those kids. Make them waste the money on their moms credit cards. -.-

 

Hell the only time i kick anyone is if their ping is constant over 300.

@Devs

 

please open up the server browser, look for server titles like "private" or "join = kick" and similar (really not hard to find) and take necessary actions. Thank you.
