No server ping?

[Navaro]

You guys all need to port forward.

Worked fine before, this isn't the problem quit implying that it is.

A lot have been getting this issue lately, and its NOT portforwarding issues.

Im having this problem too me and my friend

Goddammitnoedit: And yes I already tried port forwarding and firewall but didn't work so I went to activate and make sure UPnP is on but still the same

Check if your ip changed.

My router had something called "Virtual Server," which worked for me.

[Decimation]

This is definitely not a port forwarding issue because my server worked literally the day before this happened and I changed no settings on my router page at all, not to mention the amount of people getting the same issue.

[Blockaium]

Ok same thing for me. the thing i dont get though is, how come i didnt have to portforward before and people still joined?

[K3k0m@n]

Same for me, however is stopped working, started working for around 2 times and now it's back to not working.
Every setting is exactly the same, the IPs are also.

Again, UPnP is unreliable. Restarting your router might help. Why is everybody so resistant to port forwarding though?

[Im_AFK]

managed to get the server to work today after resetting router and disabling upnp thx greek

Why is everybody so resistant to port forwarding though?

Because they are kids who have no idea how to do it and/or cannot access their routers, but don't dare to admit that on the forum.

I really hate that badspot added UPnP, its really unreliable and it lets literally anyone host a server, which is far more bad than it is good

when port forwarding was a requirement to host a server, it restricted the feature to people with at least a shred of intelligence, and since that's no longer true the server list is saturated with really poor servers

but as aforementioned, UPnP is really unreliable, immediately after you start up your server you should check your console to make sure it isn't erroring out when trying to initialize UPnP, and if it does you should close the game and try again

NOEDIT: and if it still won't work, you need to forward ports for it
