But when I try to find a match - no matter which type - it doesn't connect. It gets stuck on "Connecting / Please wait..." until ultimately saying "Connection Lost / Your connection to the host has been lost." I've tried deploying both mechs (the default one and the rocketeer) and both fail to find matches. I've also closed and re-opened the game and got the same result.
I created exceptions in my firewall for the game - in fact I created exceptions for every executable in the game folder just to be sure. If I watch my connections with Netlimiter 3, I see hawkengame-win32-shipping.exe starts out uploading and downloading data (200-700kB) after selecting to find a match. Then within 10 seconds it drops down to 0B download, 26B upload and stays there until I get the "Connection Lost" message. The download drops to 0 first, so it appears from watching Netlimiter that this is a server issue_ Maybe_ Is there a log anywhere I can check_
In case it helps troubleshoot, here are some specs:
Windows 7 Ultimate x64 (up-to-date on Windows updates)
i7 940 @3.47GHz
12GB RAM
BFG GeForce GTX285 (running the game on)
PNY GeForce 210 (other monitors)
Nvidia drivers: 301.42
Time Warner/RoadRunner 15Mbps down/5Mbps up
Time trying to play: Nov. 20, 2012 at 10:00pm Eastern Standard Time (Ohio)
Thanks in advance...
Edit: I'm now (10:17pm EST) getting the "Find Match Failed" message immediately after clicking the "Find Match" button. I searched the forum before posting... are there server issues at the moment_
Also I guess I should mention that I have not tested Hawken prior to this. There were no older versions that needed to be uninstalled prior to Closed Beta 3.
