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.

    You can open the local replays manually. Go to the hamburger menu, click on "show replay folder," then double-click on the replay file that you want to watch.

    These are very strange stack traces. We'll look at it, but it is likely only your system that is having these type of errors. There are also sound errors in your log: [image: 1633849380634-78187c4f-1c7d-492a-b3e0-53658e2bb2d7-image.png] Did you see the topics on the forum about sound errors?

    The error message you posted does not have enough detail. You need to post the info from the game log (the file "game_15476601.log")

    @vmkcom We can't reproduce it through the replay - it is therefore likely local to your system. Update your drivers and anything else related to the stability of your system.

    I'll take the handsome and young any time. Jokes aside, I do appreciate the apology, and I think I'm not the only one thinking that. I'd like to emphasize what Axel said - there's than just developers in this community. There are content creators, content managers (news team), artists in general, developers (game related, client related, server related), server / system administrators (for the ddos mitigations, for example), testers and of course - gamers . We all make this community what it is, and that is why I personally appreciate your apology.

    Quite confident that these are all pre-patch. If it keeps happening, attach the information of the debugger

    LOUD is specifically oriented on large maps, large unit counts and play against the AI. FAF has always been essentially oriented on smaller maps with lower unit counts aimed primarily at PvP play.

    The internal error is likely unrelated. Would need to know which portal you are logging into when you get that error. You do not need proof of game ownership for your account to be able to log in and post on the forum. So you can log in with C_P and post here. In order to log into the client, lobby server, and play the game you do need to have proof of game ownership. This is why only CP can login to the client. C_P cannot because it is not linked, it also cannot be linked to your steam account because each steam account can only be linked to one faf account. You can log into the forum with CP and then you can post as that user. The accounts themselves share no data between them in our databases. It is probably only logging you in here as C_P because you have remember me set.
