I HAVE READ THE HOW-TO THREAD
So basically I bought the Ultimate Collection on Origin a while ago, my friend now bought the new Humble Origin Bundle 2 and got Generals+Zero Hour with it (also Origin).
We both use Windows 7 Home Premium.
Everytime we try to play together via C&C Online, it first tells us "waiting for probe responce" and then it both kicked us out and said "cannot connect to other players".
We have really tried everything, none of these worked, we have tried to uninstall everything, reinstall everything (yes, the game itself too) with same results. The ONLY thing which we couldn't really do was to open the port 16000 UDP. For me that was no problem, for my friend however, that didn't work. We actually forwarded the port on his router webside, but it doesn't seem to work for him. Now, how can we fix this, or is the only fix forwarding the port? Firewall is not active, Hamachi uninstalled, I tried it with the Ultimate Collection Launcher (this thing) still, with no result or change whatsoever. I can't give you any more detail, as much as I want to, but that's basically it. All of this was actually no problem when playing with another friend who owns the Ultimate Collection. It worked with absolute no problem with him, no port forwarding needed, nothing of that, just start'n'play. But with the other friend, no chance.
Is that some kind of problem with the none-ultimate collection game, or were the servers just down? If not, any idea how to fix it other than port forwarding?
The log file isn't showing anything, as we weren't trying to play the last time I started the launcher. I'll try to give that one to you asap.
I also bought the bundle, so I have the game twice in my library. Will it help to reinstall it with the none-ultimate collection item in my library?
Help is appreciated!
