richjones19772000 1 Posted August 7, 2012 Hi Guys Sorry new to this. When trying to connect to any multiplayer game i get as far receiving the file, then after it downloads i just get thrown back to the lobby?. I have been playing arma2 reinforcements online with no problem i just can not connect to on arma 2 standard?. Help please! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kylania 568 Posted August 7, 2012 Is Reinforcements all you have? Because that doesn't include ArmA2. You'd either have to download ArmA 2 Free or but ArmA2/CO/OA/whatever else. If you have both it's possible that you're missing a mod or map or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rich1977_2000 1 Posted August 7, 2012 Hi yes I have both, I must have tried over 10 separate servers an they all did the same thing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kylania 568 Posted August 7, 2012 Got names of any of these servers? Or the names of missions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rich1977_2000 1 Posted August 7, 2012 Sorry mate no I usually go for domination games, but I also tried warfare and evolution and none of them worked,I did also notice that 2 were Polish 1 German an the rest were English. Any tips for good servers? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kylania 568 Posted August 7, 2012 I usually go for unit based ones, like 15th MEU, 3rd MD, TFB Charlie since you usually get better teamwork than on some random server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ok thanks, and would I need mods for those servers? If so what do I need to do? Ideally I just want to jump straight into games without them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kylania 568 Posted August 7, 2012 Well, "TF BLACKJACK-CHARLIE" is an open server with no mods needed. "Welcome to the 3rd Infantry Division [3rdID] server 1 - vanilla" is another server that doesn't need mods, has 6 guys on it right now playing Domi. Looks like 15th's servers are still down though. Try filtering for "blackjack" or "3rdID" in the Host field to find the servers and try them out. Usually really great game play on them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dale 11 Posted August 8, 2012 I usually go for unit based ones, like 15th MEU, 3rd MD, TFB Charlie since you usually get better teamwork than on some random server. It depends if you want to be bothered to death by recruitment though, if you walk in with no tags to some of the unit servers they bombarb you with requests, im not saying these guys in particular ^^^ but ive been on some servers without tags to see what other clans are like as far as recruiting goes, it can be fairly atrocious sometimes :/ I think test the waters with some tagged servers, we reinforce teamwork on our servers but there's a line which you don't cross with pubbies because most of the time theyve got back from a long day at work and the last thing they want to hear is "want to join my clan?"
