Well !! i never thought i would see it, thats the best post u have made in this subject.. I was begining to think that it would make no difference what anyone else would post in responce to your hard line would have any merrit,and i was just thinking...man you need to get a life, LOL.. I have not read past this post, but i somehow dont think you will ever agree to disagree, and just get on with the object of the whole thing, and that is to play the game, ban whoever you like from your own server, and leave others to do it their way, i dont use the anti cheat, but if i see someone doing something over the top or stupid, OUT they go, end of story... I'm not going to get baited by this... But, you really should read my other posts. Otherwise, you will not understand what I'm getting at. FlimFlam explained it a lot more. And you took what I said entirely out of context. I know you have not got my point, so here it is I don't join all but a very few servers, i only run my own, and will do as i see fit on my own server, i also have altered files, you dont like it stay out !!! , plain enough for you Oh, and i don't run any rubbish end for the game types either, its coop only for me, i don't have to feed the need to prove anything to anyone, you see i've grown past the mine is better that yours pi.sing contest stage in life

I too have this problem a fair amount of the time, and agree with your responce, I see it the same way "Paid the Money, AND Paid the PRICE"

My last post will tell u what is the problem and fix time frame too

No i cant ???? You got YIM, if so i am regg1_au back in 20 min K i'm back and got good news there has been a fiber opp cable cut mid ocean and damaged links to usa and some europe and asia and will be back up in about 12 hrs

yes i am australian and yes its a mightmare, and last night was just fine too, i will be intouch with my isp, iinet, and ask if they have any problems... But it does say gamespy error !!!!

This information has been taken from tweak guides and is very helpfull. My prefered method with GS is I have a unique Email account just for GS, which I did through fastnet.fm, I created a new email, and started from scratch in GS after reading all that there was to read. I hope some of this info will help you. Come back and let us know. Cheers Sorry , but !! it is of no use at all, we are not new to the multiplayer lobby for GRAW , we have been playing online since its release and up untill about 12 hrs ago things worked, and now they dont, nothing has changed on my computer i dont run a firewall while playing GRAW, i dont run auto updates from MS either, and as i've said its only just started doing this and i am still unable to log into GS arcade as well....

stays RED and after sometime says gamespy error, and to check things, same message as Metal Jacket gets !! I too can do a local and lan game...

Yes i am, and its just about past the joke stage now, ###### is wrong !!!! is it so hard for them to get it right, i wont stop complaining till they get it sorted out, or i get my money back... nothing professional about this game's playability yet as far as i can see, its been put together by a very amateurish group, shoddy work at best, and ubisoft should never have gone near gamespy either, bloody control freaks... sorry i neve ment to put it in 2 times i am told can not connect to the gamespy servers, i am connecting everywhere else no problems, also i dont have a firewall up atm either i've uninstalled the game once again and re done putting it back in, without any mods and still no luck in getting onto the servers, and its been like that now for about 10 hours too i am still having no luck, not even gamespy arcade.....

Yes i am, and its just about past the joke stage now, What th. F... is wrong !!!! is it so hard for them to get it right, i wont stop complaining till they get it sorted out, or i get my money back... nothing professional about this game's playability yet as far as i can see, its been put together by a very amateurish group, shoddy work at best, and ubisoft should never have gone near gamespy either, bloody control freaks...

Just to clarify, it is not a "kill cam" that's been implemented. It's a "death cam", being able to spectate through the eyes of your remaining team mates when you are dead and have no respawns left. I dont know what ur going on about, i am able to do that now with 1.20....once dead juat hit 1,2,3, and watch what they are doing...

NO Why would u be ? , u do that one on ur own anyway

I was going to edit this above post , but could find no edit button, but no prob's I need to ADVISE !!! I HAVE FIXED BLACK SCREEN ISSUE !!!!! well at least for me, that is !!, it was caused by my broadband router, it filters UDP's and was not allowing some to pass through, as soon as i unhooked the router and used my old broadband modem i am able to join MP games coop and others.... i hope this will be for help to others and also some good news to GRIN too !!! my games are fairly solid in play, and even with the few small AI problems, i am enjoying GR:AW more eveyday THANKS...

No, now s*t*f*u kiddo Ouch !!! hehehe it must have been the truth, to be sooooo painful,

i have served, Australian Army, late 60's early 70's

i've had the same thing happen, but always see a round, hit a wall or ground, so i think its a bug...

I go along with what you have said, but !!! I've still had no responce...from anyone !!! Via my posting or emailing re-problem getting to the loadout " Inventory "screen, I ( black screen after launch from lobby ) in any multiplayer game through gamespy, I can host online multiplayer game types with some success most times, but it would be nice to have some kind of responce to the issues i am having..( BlackScreens, Dropping out to windows when re-arming AI's, Dropping to windows at start of mission if real team member fails to start with you, And the Infamous.... Crash in application version: blah, blah, "cant find member: world_pos in type <void>" ), just to name some...

well at least one of you got it right, , you lot take the prize, any closer and u would need a tub of lube gel. and you miss the point, WE PAID FOR A WORKING PROGRAM....AND NEVER GOT WHAT WE PAID FOR....THAT'S MONEY UNDER FALSE AND OR MISLEADING PRETENCES.... Now they maybe working hard to fix things, and thats all well and good, i am going to wait for the fixes and patches, like everyone else has to, BUT !! that does not alter the fact that we never got what we paid for, so at the moment our only recourse is to express our dissatisfaction, and if that taste sour then so be it.....

And your right too, we don't work for them, no....they work for us.... we the paying public, for without us they would not be able to do, what they would have us belive they can, AT ALL !! Having said that, i understand as they the Dev's do, that" what can go wrong, will go wrong " and are doing all they can to rectify the issues... Also !! it is true " Only the squeaky wheel is oiled " so feed back in whatever form is positive

I got that letter too. Me too. You people that complain about the complainers are the most useless posters on any of these forums. You seem to think that you are the center of the universe. You're like the gelatinous mounds of pasty flesh that clog the aisles of Walmart's grocery, oblivious to the fact that other people KNOW which brand of rice (they're all pretty much the same, you human flotsam) they want and don't appreciate having to wait because you chose to park your fat posterior AND your cart lengthwise in front of the whole freakin display. Toniezz...the majority? "...few ignorant boohoos"? Where do you get your figures from? That statement and that attitude is what is ignorant. I'm really glad for the co-op crowd. I truly hope you DO finally get the game you wanted, if you aren't one of lucky few who think you already did. However, I'll let you in on a little secret. The MAJORITY of people who have waited 5 years for the next installment of GR are not happy at all, whether they play SP, MP Co-op, or MP TvT. The list of LEGITMATE complaints is massive. Many of the complaints are MAJOR issues, not small quibbles. Is personally attacking the devs or forwarding ridiculous conspiracy theories helpful? Of course not. That doesn't change the fact that the game (forget the gameplay for minute) has so many problems that it is virtually unplayable for the huge number of us who primarily play TvT MP. The real numbers speak for themselves there, as in the number of available servers, the number of people playing on them, etc. Raven Shield still has hundreds of servers and thousands of players after all this time. BF2 had 1000+ servers up within a few days of release and still does. For MP team players, those are the real numbers. I'm not going to rehash what it would take for GRAW to achieve some level success with this huge segment of the FPS gaming world. It may be too late, I don't know. What I do know is that marginalizing my concerns and those of thousands of other dedicated MP players does not serve you or the future of this game. I'm absolutely certain that GRIN is doing the best they can with what they have to work with and I don't fault them. However, that doesn't change the fact that for my particular demographic of player (competing TvT MP), this game is FUBAR. you have said what was need to be said and i agree, its not looking too good at all, i hope that with not too much time they might find a cure, before i do remove the life support, that i've had to place it on

I'm playing on a WS and have never had any troubles with the resolution in GRAW, even after the patches (I'm using 1440 x 900) Of the 14 or so people I've talked to who have widescreen, you are the FIRST person whom I have met that hasn't had a problem. Are you sure your eyes arn't seeing what's happening? Does your screen "Jump" after ~15 minutes of play (Re: the 1.20 patch takes longer for the aspect ratio to skew - I think this is related to the AC somehow). Then, a few minutes later, it'll reset itself. It really strains my eyes to see my screen jumping like that all the time. Granted, my screen also jumps whenever I attempt to type something. A shot will fire out of my gun - without using ammo - and the screen will jump. If GRIN wants a video of this - I'll grab my video camera and take a few short films for them. (Re: e-mail me or PM me plz) Quick Edit: a couple of notes. 1) the widescreen skewing didn't happen till 1.16 patch. It was fine in the 1.10 patch. 2) The type-skew happened since I installed the game - I think it might be a widescreen specific bug. i've got viewsonic VA1912wb, and have had no issues with the game on it at all

your right it needs an option to host or join from a mulitplayer lobby by entering an IP Address, and not just GameSpy, i love that in [GR], and yes to all the modes of game play too

I just leave it alone, i find its not too bad as is

Yes i think the check point are enough, after all " to me " this is a Sim' and should be approached as if u where doing it, and ur life depended on doing it right "never being seen, very rarely heard, a felt with great impact" if u make mistakes u pay the price, i like it just as it is, the way u do the job determines the outcome, so carry your big stick, tread carefully..kick butt and take names... ...and feel good when you finish... there are a few problems with it, i dont think anyone could really say otherwise, but givin time it will be easier to run stable i hope !! Only other thing i feel is a little unreal is the amount of AI's on each mission, there's just not enough, and no NCP's ? why, there needs to be more in buildings to clear out, and when set to hard the enemy numbers should be increased by 25% Played in 3 different servers tonight. Lots of disconnects. The cd-key issue has been fixed, but now "altered game files" as well as just basic disconnects are common. Wasn't much a problem for me in 1.16. Only think I've changed in my xml file was my name (to add clan tag) and it didn't work so I changed it back. So no, I don't have hax. Someone mentioned reboot, and I'll try that. But I don't think I'm only one of a few who are having these problems. Not a complaint, just an observation. made exactly the same observations ! same issues here and black screen when trying go in after inventory screen too, its made no difference the new patch... for me
