I’ve connected to 17 different Battlefield 2 servers. I’ve been kicked out 17 times within 30 seconds of play due to “lost connection”. That figure is not an exaggeration, and I’ve yet to succesfully find a playable server. Spending an hour just to connect to a game is not my idea of fun, and my ISP is to blame for this one. The router has been reset to factory conditions (with the ports forwarded to the right spots and everything) so that eliminates that.
This is really, really, really, REALLY starting to irritate me.
Update: Of course, it took multiple retries just to put this post on the net. DNS errors everytime. I… want… to… kill…
Update: This is now server 24 that has let me play for 2 minutes before promptly kicking me out due to connection problems. I wanted to go to Google to search to see if I was the only one – but Rogers resolving Google was just too much to ask. So of course – that didn’t work.
