LFS noob has problems. And so LFS noob has questions.

[lip]

The noob is me.

LFS is running fine. But There is no connection to the master server or server list possible.
My internet connection is working. Windows Firewall is off.

Simple advice? For the lonely noob who wants to race with others?
Thanks.

ports blocked?
running through a proxy?

norton or any other soft for personal security? try to disable and retry

You're not using a hacked copy right?

 

[Smurfen]

if you are using a cracked software you wont be able to play online. BUY THE GAME! totally worth it

 

[Gabkicks]

you can play onlline in the demo.

Cracked software? Me? I beg your pardon? Surely not. (read: Yes).

But I tried connecting with the demo. No firewall, no norton. Not possible.

 

[Gabkicks]

check on the official lfs forums. this problem must have come up before and been resolved with other people

 

[Matt2000]

if you're running through a router you should have a look at the port settings (if you haven't) and buy a legit copy. it is worth it

^if the problem still exists... it might be a problem with the damaged internet cables near Taiwan because of a recent earthquake, it's affecting me quite bad ATM, can't connect to alot of servers

Andy, I don't think someone in Switzerland is affecting by a earthquake in Asia, internet connection wise.
for the right information: You CAN play online with the demo but not with the full S2 content
So buy the game and play online instead of overtaking the ai lap after lap :lol:

 

[andyhui01]

^ff... he just said he can't play online with demo as well, can't connect

But I tried connecting with the demo. No firewall, no norton. Not possible.
