Impossible to play

[Alex Dracu]

For the last 3 hours or so the game either doesn't connect to the servers, saying it can't find the server. Once every half hour or so it does connect. As soon as the game starts i get : The connection to the game server was lost, and promtly lose the game.

Set BB.exe to run as admin, set the firewall stuff, my connection has no other problems.

I'm in China, but it makes no difference if i use the VPN or not.

It sounds like a data issue, can you try this:
1. Uninstall the game from Steam
2. Browse to Steam\steamapps\common and be sure to delete the Blood Bowl 2 folder
3. Download the game again

now it's working again.

This has happened before more then a few times and it always goes away in a couple of days at most. Also i've noticed a lot of us who have this issue are seemed to be based in East Asia, is this a coincidence ? When i was home in Romania i never once had any kind of connectivity problems

And as evening gets here, the same problem : Game servers are inaccessible . Then in 10-20 minutes it connects, i can spin and start a game and by turn 2-3 i'm disconnected and unable to reconnect.

It's not from my PC, in Romania this literally never happened once and i played a hell of a lot more then i do now.

It's got to be related to my location. I looked up similar threads, and in the last 2 years most people who had this exact issue were playing from either Korea, China or Japan. I know that in the evening the internet connection from here to the "western world" starts to have constant data losses, as literally hundreds of millions of people go online with a couple of hours, but every other game deals with them in some form.

All of your answers about this is of the generic "reset your PC" (with it's cousins "reinstall" "change some network settings") and they never work for anyone. But since the problem goes away after 11:30 there's no follow up complaint. And since this is not a daily occurrence, but somewhat random, it not take seriously :/

as i typed this in like 10 minutes or so, i downloaded a movie, listened to some podcast on youtube and refreshed plebbit and 4chan. they all lag a bit and freeze here and there for a few seconds, but only Blood Bowl needs such a stable connection that it can't even connect to the server. This isn't an FSP, small data losses don't affect the gameplay at all.
