Getting DC Symbol As Soon As I Enter A Server

Let me start off by saying that I've been waiting for this game forever, and I'm super happy about it finally being released!

That being said, for some reason, I can't stay in a server today! Yesterday, I could join a server, and other than some random crashes (which I am to understand is common at the moment) everything was working fine. I could play, etc.

Today, however, as soon as I enter a server, I get the "plug pulled" disconnect icon on the left hand side, and it says I've timed out. It doesn't matter what server I join. I'm assuming this isn't the pre-cacheing problem everyone's been having because it seems like I'm pre-cacheing just fine (since that's in the loading screen and I get past that) and the problem happens a few seconds afterwards when I'm in the server.

If anyone could enlighten me, I'd appreciate it greatly.

    This is the main problem for me aswell. I've been able to stay on 1 server today though. but now I've tried like 40 times in a row and my patience is running out.

    Yeah, it's really weird, and seems uncommon compared to the problem other people are having.

    Yes everybody seems to be talking about the cache thing. Well I've tried both disabling my firewall and updating my graphics driver and none of them seem to solve this problem. I have no problem playing other games online, so it can't really be my connection. I can understand minor bugs around release date, but bugs that prevents so many players from playing the game is just awful. I dont understand how they can release a game in this condition. Well I'm just getting a little annoyed now because I did pay money for this game, so I really wanna play it.

    Yeah, same. I've tried updating drivers and reinstalling NS. Neither of them worked. :S

    I hope a fix comes out soon!

    This is a known issue and was introduced in the Build 227 (1.0 update).

    I believe they are fixing this as it relates to the precaching issue and should have a patch out later today

    Keep watching @NS2 Twitter for more updates as they come in.

    Awesome, thank you.

    For now, I've found that joining through a friend worked for some reason. He and I are playing right now.
