New woes with 5-14-09 patch

Yes, I'm having the exact same problem : everything was fine before the last patch, but since then I can't even rejoin a lobby anymore (in the "connection info" window, everyone is named "PlayerName"). Once I could go into the lobby, but with some people I had 3000-4000 ping, and with others I couldn't connect (0 ping).

I'm really, really disappointed, I was finally able to play and now they screwed it again...

Pretty much exactly the same issue + some NAT facilitator stuff.

Though even prior to today only way I can get the game to consistently play online is putting my PC in the DMZ and even that is rather flaky, and a pain to switch back and forth when I don't want to play. Thing is, I can't imagine my difficulties are that rare as I am on largest UK isp (BT) using their standard equipment.

I'm experiencing some NAT server problems--can't host a game, custom lobby is empty, when I refresh it shows old games that I can't join. Though I do love the Auto-kick super laggy connections! Making some progress, keep it up

On a side note, I am able to connect to the pantheon no problem and those games run sweet as can be.  It kinda boggles my mind tho why the pantheon works no problem but the custom game lobby is pretty much unplayble now.  At least the pantheon has been alot of fun.  Oh well, heres to hoping the next patch fixes everything.

PlayerName should only show until you're connected to that person, then it'll show their name.

As from today Im not able to play ANYONE. Pantheon/Skirmish/Custom games ... all NAT facilitator thingy. Never had this problem b4

Try not to fuck up the game for those that could play next time. Ty

I have the same problem as the OP and #1.

Players show up as "Player Name" until we connect and I have >6000 ping with everyone

Well I can play.
