The current pre-release of the client ("pioneer" in the version) is only compatible to itself. So you can only play with other testers. Please be aware!

    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.

    @brutus5000 I guess to me it is a map inspired by dual gap. There was no 16 player version of the newer, best one (DualGap Adaptive v12) so I provided it. A couple years ago, I also uploaded a 16 player version of an older dual gap map and it has thousands of plays and remains in the vault. Some people want to play the unique, 16 player versions that I've uploaded.

    Well the error already gives you everything you need. @reaperrsx said in Like others - UK user suddenly can't join games: Connection timed out: no further information: hydra.faforever.com/116.202.155.226:443 Tell them you have issues connecting to this domain.

    Do you still have the issue? Have you tried the following: @magge said in Solutions for common errors with the FAF client launcher or supreme commander: Something is blocking the client to have access to the internet, or you have a very unstable connection. Check if your internet connection is stable Check if firewall is blocking the access Disable security software for testing purpose Try a VPN from a different country
