Title: Linkdead problem
Post by: Sahkmeth on January 13, 2005, 08:18:27 pm

ok the thing is i log in, the game loads and when the progression bar ends it\'s takes an eternity to start the game and after a while out comes a message that says
\"you are linkdead, if you have this problem often please report it!\"

so like a good boy i\'m reporting it, i only got one chance to play the game and when i got into the transporter it crashed and i got the first \"linkdead\" message

Please help me :)

Does this happen all the time? i.e. did you retry it recently?

Do you have a firewall (like zonealarm) or similar?

I have one and get linkdead. Im assuming you mentioned firewalls because they cause a problem and you possibly have a solution. If so can you please post it.

Thanks.

Well you must make sure that your firewall isn\'t blocking port 7354 and that it allows UDP.

i try to play and it says servers are up, but then it will make me go linkdead. i turn off my firewall and it still goes linkdead.... and once it goes linkdead i can go back in and it says servers are up...

That\'s because there is currently a big problem with the server. We\'re working on that.
