I just downloaded the Demo for the game. When I tried to open the game, I got a prompt saying "The Patch Server Could Not Be Found". What can I do to fix this? I'm guessing I will have to download something else to fix this?
what you need to do is.
1. if using win7 or vista have the launcher and gameclient exe set to run as admin.
2. be sure the y are also allowed by your firewall and antivirus programs.
3. besure ports 7000-7500 are open
4. IE browser is not set to work offline or have it's internet options, communications tab, lan setting set to use a proxy.
no need to open ports. when launching game client, this opens these ports on any firewall for incoming traffic on those ports. opening ports is a security risk, especially at ports below 30000 TCP
