Where's MP support?

[King John]

We have a game in 1.5 hours, but it seems that not only are all the channels in vnet not functioning, but IP doesn't work either. Is this going to be fixed soon? The same problem was there yesterday as well. It would be nice to know ahead of time when this sort of thing is going to happen, since it meddles with a lot of games and people's schedules.

Paradox is having a major network/server overhaul, access to them will be unstable this week.

(which is basicly what Johan put in the announcement)

 

[King John]

Sorry, jumped to conclusions o . I figured out why IP wasn't working, spaces were appearing to the right of the cursor that needed to be deleted.

I had missed the part about direct ip connections...

I'm pretty sure that your traffic doesn't go through paradox servers if you chose to connect directly to the game using the hosts ip though.

btw, I don't know if this has been asked before... but is there a limitation on the number of connections via IP?

 

[King John]

Yep, my mistake. Just made a quick connection when vnet and IP happened to stop working for me at the same time.

Genius, no there is none that I'm aware of. The problem I was talking about is when spaces appear after the cursor in the area where you would type in the IP address. If you don't delete them when you try to join a game, it will freeze up Eu2.
