Default ETQW Website and Back-end Servers Untangled

A new blog entry has been added:

ETQW Website and Back-end Servers Untangled

Quote:
After Sunday's and Monday's partial disruption of the Enemy Territory: QUAKE Wars Community Site and back-end authentication and update servers, normal service appears to have been restored. We're still not sure what caused the routing commotion in the first place, but Activision's server wizards continue to investigate. If you're still seeing connection problems with the website or in the game, please let us know in the comments and we'll pass the information on.

Exclamation Get Rid Of Them

Seriously . . . get rid of Activision.
It not only has stopped QA support but also have the red button when they decide that ETQW is no more a ranked (aka profitable) game.

The fix took a while for me, but it wasn't all that bad.

Only thing is: people who can't access the forums won't be able to comment here

I found i could connect though proxy, but normally i couldn't connect. Yet by buddy down the road, with the same ISP could. It was very strange, glad its sorted.

but not uncommon.
like latest Gov attack on UT99-2004 networks.
under "real load" and cybercryme attack - possible.
but more like AV - underestimate services capacity(performance) needed for them(lack expectations 4 sales ? or just [planning]management failure ? answer - uncertain[4 customer])

p.s.
i got too frequently "failed to connect to online services"-message last week(after pwd reset). just after "games up to date" baloon.
just hope it not DNS cache poisoning explotiation caused.
most world top ISP's - still NOT FIXED this flaw !!
see a 800113 article from cert.org for example.

Try downloading the patch first, do you have the licence key?

The game must be fully patched in order to create an account. You can download the patch manually from the official site, filefront or some other mirror, or you can use the in-game update feature.

Welcome to the community!

If you're needing tips or tutorials, I recommend the video tutorials linked in my signature or checking out Ifurita's ETQW4Newbies site.

OMG, stop it!!!!

Edit: and now that the above post has been deleted I look like a fool
There was some new guy bumping very old threads, writing stuff completely off-topic. And this was not the only thread he was doing it in, but I chose this to tell him to stop. Admins: feel free to delete this post.
