Turns out I was just being impatient, eventually the faf client sort of crashed and opened an install wizard

Bug doesn't seem to require a player as an observer to occur. Was hosting a full game, saw a player was joining, so launched to avoid the issue. System went into an infinite loop. After force rebooting and logging back in to FAF, spoke with the other players. At least one person made it into the game. Others said the game didn't launch, but they also didn't crash.

I used to have a very slow connection to Github. For me it turned out it was Hamachi messing with the settings of the transmission control protocoll. Maybe you are lucky and this resolves your issue: https://community.logmein.com/t5/Hamachi-Discussions/Slow-internet-speeds-after-installing-Hamachi/td-p/210879#:~:text=Re%3A Slow downloads after installing Hamachi&text=The settings need to be,Scaling State enabled as well.

Thanks for the tipp, this could be the problem. I looked at my folder and found it. I think this folder whas not there until i started a game an faf created this one.

I look into my magic crystal ball and it says approximately Sunday 13th August between 6pm and 7pm. While that sounds a bit sarcastic (and it is), it's a good guess too We have already fixed the hydrocarbon issue: https://github.com/Uveso/BlackOpsFAF-Unleashed/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aclosed Now Jip is hunting some script errors that happen with drones. After he found the issue we will be able to do the patch. As far as i know there are no more gamebreaking errors. Assuming you can't find any more But even with smaller errors I will make an update, so that we at least have a working version.

Does it work when you disable/uninstall Hitman Pro?

Was he an observer? As I often have an issue where I cant kick observers. Most of the time, I can un-ready, go observe and kick him. Sometimes even that wont work; but that is a rarety . Starting with observers for me also gives a likely chance for my game to crash. I noticed this other message on another thread for your reference : https://forum.faforever.com/topic/6343/who-is-paralon-shutting-down-lobbies

AFAIK your windows username C:/Users/DYLAN(~1 is causing issues - Create a new windows user without any fancy symbols - Install FAF and Supreme under that account and try again.

@Roni19 Do you have a Steel Series headset?

Everything is going great as usual, thank you very much

Solution for me was - i have a headset with virtual instances(eg. multiple profiles for chat/game)- once i deactivated all that and there was only one device left it worked just fine. Now i just deactivate all the steelseries sonar/virtual surround stuff before i play FAF.

@giantrubberduck i am getting the same problem but when i tried to link faforever with steam account from my android based phone it works you can also try to link from your phone.

Thanks magge will do

Look, we devs did something right . Glad to hear it worked out
