"Connection failed"

[ShadowBSE]

Hey folks,

My Game was working fine until now.
I could play online and stuff... Now it keeps saying me "connection failed" after trying to connect to a server. I tried several ones, all the times the same message occurs. I CAN host games and people join in and can play, so it shouldnt be unopened Ports causing it... And I mean I was playing online before and didnt change anything here, so I think its a bug.

My system Specs:

E6600 @3.2 Ghz
4GB Ram
260GTX

Router has DMZ (so all Ports opened) and I addionally opened the ArmA2 and Gamespy ports manually. Please help me... I paid for the Game and want to play now!

Hello All,

I have got the same problem. Hey! I bought this game ONLY because of multiplayer...
What can I do? Please help.

I have the retails version. Network itself is working (can play other games). Do I have to open ports as client???

The error message itself it not very helpful. If server would be wrong version, it should tell - shouldn't it?


Win XP SP3
Intel Core 2 6400
GPU is GTX275
4GB RAM

Regards
Alex
