I think the whole damned network is screwy right now. Have you seen the server count?

Nope. It's got to be the damned network though, Dionysus was also having issues with his server today. There's probably too many people connecting. Are you guys experiencing any lag?

My PS3 isn't even connected to a router, just a switch that is connected directly to my fiber connection.

How do I set my PS3 i DMZ mode?
Click to expand...

Do you have a firewall? Set the firewall to DMZ the PS3 IP. And you better join the Server list and host 32p games once you get this sorted :D

15/19 of the people in my server are GAF clan members :D

I'm really enjoying this game, however I really don't like feeling like I can't do shit when I am on foot. I always feel like my bullets don't do enough damage, or aren't accurate enough. It always ends up to be a grenade throwing contest. Even when I get the drop on people it doesn't really make a difference because they will just turn around and peg me in the face, while my assault rifle from 10 feet away knocks off an 1/8 of their health.

It's really quite balanced. When I'm on foot I feel like I can setup a blockade or get the drop on tons of people. Mines help a lot, but the main thing is CROUCH AND SHOOT. Unloading 1 clip of my assault rifle on someone usually gets them to 1/8 LEFT of their health or less. This is usually before they have a chance to even throw a grenade. Also rocket launchers are deadly against infantry as well if you angle it right. Firing it to incoming jeeps and jumping out of the way is a great tactic too, followed by some grenades.

Though I'd like to be able to customize my character, I'm not going super crazy as far as ranked games go, because I fear my stats will be wiped out. I think after a good month of patches and fixes things would go back to normal.

Yep. Sygate Personal Firewall.

Do you think I get the same results by just closing the firewall before i start Warhawk?
I didn't find any DMZ-settings, but I found this and typed in the IP for my PS3:

Closing the firewall should set your PS3 in either NAT1 or NAT2 (both are fine). What do you get now with the new settings?

You should make it an unranked password server.. it's not like it's actually gonna KEEP the stats from ranked games right now.
Click to expand...

I haven't had any issues with my stats recording. It takes forever for them to get posted, but they still get posted.

Have you guys been playing on servers with 15 second intermissions between rounds? The stats take about 25 seconds after a round to sort and send to the central server on my system. Maybe your stats aren't being sent to the central server because the intermission time cuts the stat sending process?

isn't the intermission time fixed on ranked servers?

I haven't bothered messing with it yet (I always forget...), but it wasn't in the beta.

Same results. :/

I'll try sticking the PS3 TP cable directly to the fiber connection....

Should give you NAT 1. If you still get NAT 3, someone higher up in the connection (ISP, Network admin) has the ports blocked.

I agree with the idea of a password, it'll keep the non-gaffers out.
Click to expand...

The problem is that ranked servers don't allow passwords and frankly I don't see the point in hosting a dedicated unranked server. Maybe I'll host a password protected player server next time, but I doubt I'll ever host a dedicated unranked server.

Same here. It seems like when the game gets timed out during a profile request that it'll give you this error. When the game is finally able to get a response from the stat server It'll promote you to your proper rank. No biggie, they had a bigger stat bug in the beta IMO (look at somebody else's profile and gain their rank; at one point it seemed like half the people in the beta were viewing Click's profile...)

Yeah, that needs to be fixed. There are a bunch of balancing issues that need to be fixed.

Server crashed/frozed, sorry guys. I'm gonna let the system cool down, I'll probably have it back up at around 9:00 P.M. PST.

The turrets on Eucadia blend in so well they are hard to spot and once you realise one is active you are usually dead - for the missle ones anyway.

It was fun playing you guys. My team sucked sorta at dog fighting but it was still fun. Nice playing where the majority of people actually try and play as a team. No idiots in your headset saying idiotic things :)

They're about as strong as a warhawk, so 5 or so swarm or 2 homing would do it, seems fair imo. For some people, like me, its the only way to get ratbastard warhawks down.
