you have to run the T3A:O launcher as admin and that fixes it.

(Rightclick > Properties > Compability > Run this program as administrator)

It will just say the same thing i go into multiplayer, and then it says i need to update, so i close it and then it will say there are patches avaiable and then it says do you wish to download? and i click yes then it just does the same thing (could not connect)

And my TA3O is ran as an admin with the game hooked. Could it be because im using Forshires special edition of the game? will i have to switch over to the TA3O version to use it or what?

Install the latest patches manually as written in our installation guide here in the subforum.

"To know what question we may reasonably propose is in itself a strong evidence of sagacity or intelligence. For if a question be in itself incongruous and begs for uncalled-for answers, it holds, sometimes, besides embarrassing the proposer, the disadvantage to seduce the unguarded listener into giving absurd answers, and we are presented with the ridiculous spectacle of one (as the ancients said) milking the he-goat, and the other holding a sieve beneath."

Rise of the witch king will just ask for an update and then i click on update and then it says connecting to EA servers and then it just says failed to connect after 15 seconds. I know this works i just can't get passed that part.

Did you do what I asked you to? It's all in our installation guide.

Do you run as admin? You can try to manually install the latest patches again. And yes, use the new game.dat
