Hi .
i launched vu with no issue and made a soldier with no issue but at the server browser when i wanted to join a server i got this message , this is for most of the servers and i have no idea why i am getting it ! but other servers like a prop hunt server was ok . (over all i can connect to 2 servers )
close and retry joining.
Same Problem Here, and I don’t know how to fix.
Errors can come across when the server is not properly configured. Some servers can be unreachable, when the ping value shows 999 on the server list, that can be a indicative that you wont be able to connect to that server.
When you receive one of those “Connection Failed” messages, please do the following:
I’m curious what IP addresses your VU Client thinks each server has. For example, when I try to connect to my VU server, my VU Client is trying to connect to 127.0.0.1, which is completely wrong. I haven’t found a solution for this yet. If your VU Client is doing something similar, then we may have found a bug.
I tried to connect to the same server using the ID and gained access immediately. Next, I compared your log entries with mine and see that you are running a slightly older build. Frankity recommended that you restart your VU Client application. Have you done that? When you restart the client app, the software should auto-update and bring you up to the same version I’m using. If that’s not it, then we need to look at your home network. For security reasons, I’ll take that conversation private.
i updated VU but got the same message , i need to ask this because this happens alot , (but i have not experienced this on bf3 servers on origin list ) i live in iran and one reason might be sanction ! , same issue goes with tf2 in creators.tf i assume we might have the same issue here - cause firewall is off on my system .
Please post the IDs of some servers of which you can connect, and some servers that you can’t.
for example [hcm]hardcoremedicspromode . sorry for delay of answering .
any ideas about the server issue ?
To start, this will require PowerShell version 5.1 or higher. You can check the version of PowerShell that is installed by opening a PowerShell prompt and typing “$PSVersionTable”. The version shown here is 5.1.
Once you’ve verified the version is correct, then open PowerShell ISE.
Copy and paste this code into PowerShell ISE. Sorry about the lack of indenting; this forum is not code friendly.

hi champ listen , i donw know why some servers are ok to join but some of these servers when i join them the vu crashes ! and dont let me to test the series
i give you ten servers which i cannot connect
1.OMG. Rush four zero (not connecting)
