    Hi! Since July 16 I can't join or host any game — FA launches, reaches the lobby, then hangs on "Connecting..." forever. The ICE debug window and telemetry stay completely empty: no peers, no gathering, nothing. From my logs the game processes CreateLobby fine and the client receives GameState Idle → Lobby, but after that no JoinGame / HostGame / ConnectToPeer ever arrives, so the ICE adapter is never asked to connect to anyone. My lobby connection itself looks healthy the whole time (join requests get responses, I even got a game_not_ready error back once, and the game list keeps updating live). Last working game: July 15. Same silent behavior on client 2026.1.0 and after updating to 2026.4.1 — ~12 attempts across 6+ different games.

    Dear Commander, are you willing to learn and improve your game play? If your answer is yes, the FAF Dojo is the place to be. What You Can Expect From The FAF Dojo A (mostly) voice-based community of 500+ players from all over the world Like-minded people willing to improve A wide range of skill levels (0-2000+) An experienced trainer team (incl. several top 50 players) Replay reviews Training sessions (as a group) Training sessions (1on1) In-house tier lists resembling the ranks of a Judo school 1v1 Team games (”global”) A wide variety of options to practice Sparring (trainees only - unrated) Sparring (trainees and trainers - unrated) 1v1 challenges TMM queue Events Tournaments Community nights (e.g. a dedicated 1v1 Night) What The FAF Dojo Expects From You Participating requires a functioning set of headphones and microphone, or a headset Keeping a positive and supportive atmosphere Once you reach a certain level, you might want to consider giving back by becoming a trainer yourself How do I join the FAF Dojo? Check out our Notion page to find out more about our trainers (incl. several official trainers from the FAF Discord), tournaments (1v1, 2v2, 3v3), and more. If our system appeals to you, we would gladly welcome you on our Discord server. Cheers.

    @gandalf22 You or/and your son can appeal the smurf-ban and explain the situation with evidence to resolve it very easily. Additionally, if you think someone else is smurfing, please report them, so the mod team can investigate.

    @mostlostnoob Generally correct, but in this case we (mods) discussed it internally and agreed that a ticket would work best, for basically the same reasons arma wrote out

    No changes have been made to the AI for a few months now so I don't think it's a change in that regard. Which map and which mod are you using. Have you tried it without said mod? Usually a 5.9 AIX should result in pretty quick teching and building. One thing you could do is observe the AI to see what it's doing thats causing this problem. There are also logs produced that can give us an indication of something is going wrong that's stopping it

    It was mainly implemented to try and be helpful to the moderators so they could message people who were not currently online. And it was all set up as a bit of an experiment to see if it would work with the number of players that we have.

    Thanks! Did the uninstall and this time looked and noticed that the java files still remained. Deleted the FAF Client folder and turned off autoprotect for norton and reinstalled. Came right up.

    @waterbottle said in chat dont work: @brutus5000 said in chat dont work: Please try to logout of the client and then relogin. [image: 1703111178736-5f0b0e05-6d56-415c-a4e8-a42a5e24120b-image.png] The issue is most probably related to the stored login token and will eventually go away on its own, but logout should enforce this. My chat hadn't been working since the new update, but I tried this and it worked immediately, thanks! Scratch that. The chat disconnected again after 10minutes. So there does seem to be something wrong with it still.
