BoogieManFL 1 Posted July 12, 2012 We have Arma2 and Arma2 Operation Arrowhead through Steam. Tried with both Operation Arrowhead and Combined Operations So my bro and I were playing Super Powers for awhile against AI, and decided to restart after making some changes to the game (number of towns, etc). We were playing fine. Closed server, restarted, but now just get "Connecting Failed" over and over. We've both tried hosting, we both restarted our PCs, routers, and modems. We even tried both enabling DMZ on our routers to make sure there wasn't some miraculous port issue that somehow popped up mid game. No change. We've compared version numbers and are launching the same thing. I don't understand how we are playing fine, then suddenly it's impossible to connect to each other. Any suggestions?

Clowns2 10 Posted July 12, 2012 Can either of you connect to someone elses dedicated server online? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UK_SPAWN 1 Posted July 12, 2012 Im also having this problem, the only way i could solve this was to use a hamachi, and even then that requires a lot of setup, if u need help with that leave a reply. also make sure you disable windows firewall aswell as you 3rd party ones. (use task manager, show processes from all users, go to Services TAB, find Windows Firewall, R-Click - Stop service) - Run steam as admin, or the Shortcut if you use that.. ---------- Post added at 15:38 ---------- Previous post was at 15:35 ---------- Clowns, Yes we would be able to connect to an online dedicated server(in my experiance), but most "non dedicated" I.E "John on John PC" would also yield connection failed. however i descoverd if you somtimes if you repetedly connect by mashing enter a lot, maybe 1 in 1000 times it may connect and your in! Where abouts in the world do you live BoogieMan? wonder if that has anything to do with it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
