Hello,

 

I really loved this game when it came out in 2008 and wanted to reinstall again with a pall of mine. Unfortunately I couldn't even come online after hours of trying... First I followed the rules to play multiplayer via c&c online - thus by hooking the game. I didn't receive any confirmation that it was hooked but when I start playing it starts via that c&c online menu. So far so good, I assumed everything would work but by pressing online it freezes and I get 'unable to establish a connection with the Command & Conquer 3 servers, please check your internet connection'. I know my connection is fine but can't figure out what's the problem. I would really appreciate any help!!

 

With kind regards,

 

Evgeny

I second this issue, please help. How is everyone able to connect with C&C3 Tiberium Wars/Kane's Wrath these days?

Try going to the launcher > Hook > <select the game>, and then try relaunching.

It will likely launch another instance of the launcher, you will need to go to the second instance and press the game name button again to launch it, it should let you into the online menu.

Sounds like you need to ensure that both your game and cnconline.exe are set to always run as administrator; with it still freezing, it seems like the actual 'hooking' process is being blocked due to not having the correct permissions.
