    We can't host servers at the moment. rF2 crashes when I try to set up a server now.

    They are still at work... By the sound of it, some unexpected issue made this last longer than intended.

    They're still working on it, and probably will be until fully fixed. I feel sorry for devs at times like that, evening plans are kaput instantly.

    Heh, I imagine they can feel hundreds of eyes on them while they work and hear the servers groaning under the weight of posts.

    Yeah... we can put our dedicated server online and it says Server updating successfully, but clients can't access matchmaker and therefore are unable to join.

    Please bring back direct IP joining...

    Yes please, I'd hate to see more scheduled league races cancelled because of broken matchmaker.

    Also problems here. Multiplayer option is grey for clients, and the dedicated crashes when setting up a server.

    We were suppose to run our league race tonight as scheduled, but suddenly no one can launc the online of rFactor2. Server is up and running, but client just crashes to desktop after rFactor2 title screen. Drivers can't even see the lobby.

    +1 vote for direct ip joining! Yesterday we had huge problems with server losing conenction to matchmaker. We had to restart server every fifteen minutes and players were able to join only for a 3-5 minutes after restart.

    its a beta, running a league runs the risk of things being broken and screwed up right when you wanna race so you have to expect these problems a long the way unfortunatley.

    Forced matchmaker without direct ip possibility is just an excuse for charging money annually, and for us with a lifetime account, it feels like nothing but bad service. I understand it is a beta product, but the matchmaking system may fail in the final product too. There should be a way around it, at least for the time while the matchmaker is down.
