Angry Priest 10 Posted October 15, 2010 I am trying to play Co-Op online in Combined operations with a friend of mine. I can find his server in the browser, but it is listed with "?" or "2500" ping. I can actually connect to the server fine, but end up at a blank multiplayer screen. If I press Ok, "receiving data" shows up as normal, except it reads "0 out of 0 Kbs" Our names also show up at the side, reading my actual ping as barely above 60ms. Here's the catch, I can join plenty of other servers fine, I can sort by ping and be greated with pages of green pings, however, further down there is plenty of "?" servers too. Until now, I had assumed they were servers with pings too high to register. To make matters more confusing, we used to be able to play fine. We used to play ARMA2 vanilla Co-op all the time. Just before we got OA, my computer was infected with a virus and I had to do a full re-install. When I finally got it up and running again, we both had OA and decided to try play it Co-Op when we ran into the problem described above. So does anyone know why the servers show "?" and how to connect to them? Help would be greatly appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Angry Priest 10 Posted October 16, 2010 None. And even if it was causing a problem it wouldn't explain why not all of them are question mark'ers. Edit: Taxman of SBS? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Angry Priest 10 Posted October 17, 2010 He has none either. Nothing in his system has changed since we last played. I played with you the other day, under the name 'Brothers', my first time on PvP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Angry Priest 10 Posted October 19, 2010 Similar to me except when I join any server like that, I'm not able to select a role or anything. Stuck at a blank multiplayer screen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
