Kurtz Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 I tried to join a game today where the server (riptest) said "11/12 players". I refreshed still 11/12, refreshed again: 10/12, and I could join. Is there an unvisible player? From a user perspective it's frustrating not being able to join when I think there is a slot available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaytoniousRex Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 There might be others simultaneously joining (between your refresh and your join), but OTOH it might indeed be a bug. I'll try to reproduce it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PseudoSimonds Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 I had the same thing happen (also trying to join the riptest server) this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoshpak Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 same thing for me, but it was 10/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
konstantine Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 Me too, numerous times with 11/12 showing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abidubi Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 I notice this all the time and it is REALLY anyoing. I think (if it's not a bug and just caused by someone already joining) a very simple soltuion would be to consider someone already in the game as soon as he starts the loading process. Then when someone else hits refresh, the server would see 12 players (while only 11 are in game) and return 12 players to the person. I used to play tactical ops (the FPS mod for UT) on an old computer and it would take about 30 sec or so to load a map. Often I would join a server with 15/16 players and once I was done loading I would get the message "Rejected by server" and now see 16/16. I really would like to see that avoided in this game, considering the long loading times with the cashing and all (and my measly 1 gig of RAM).

DrWoood Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 I also had it with 11/12 players. Maybe someone posting here was trying to simultaneously join Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netherby Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Seen it too.. I'v never been able to join a server with 11/12.. When you start connecting I believe you do instantly show up as being on the server.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
