Locked up

when ever i go into the multiplayer menu it locks up, and won't respond.

You need to be really patient. It might take quite a while until the menu responds again.

Just let it load and do something else in the meantime. Might take a couple of minutes.

Yeah the same thing happens to me especially when I use Hamachi to do multiplayer. It takes a ridiculously loooong time for the menu to load for me. That could be your problem, or your firewall might be blocking your connection.

I have noticed, that when I use LAN, it takes a lot of time to load, but when I use gamespy it goes almost instantly to lobby.

Takes forever for my game to load regardless of LAN, singleplayer or multiplayer... a good few minutes before the game pops up from the loading screen. Any suggestions? (Specs are.... intel 2-core 2.0ghz nvidia 7900 256mb dedicated). Pretty sure that since other people aren't experiencing this same issue... something is going on

It takes along time to load for me too so its not just you.

I don't think its the router or computer, it has something to do with the way that the program is written.

Yeah, I actually realize now that it is just the amount of odf's; however, various people's computers seem to load at different speeds.... and now I realize that mine is rather fast compared to a few peoples.

I thought this was a problem at first, but like other people have said it's just the time it takes to load.

might there be a way to fix this?

Ray, does FO load singleplayer games just as slowly as it does multiplayer? If it does, I'd happen a guess to say it is just your rig

from time to time i also have to wait a long time before i can access the lan lobby, have seen that happen randomly on other systems too. i have not tried to find a reason for that. i think stock armada shows the same behaviour, as it is a problem that existed before fo 3.0
