CQC CQC Keep losing connection in the middle of matches!!!

It's hard enough to get a CQC game going, and when I finally can get into a game it's always 4v2 and the session crashes to the main menu 2 out of 3 games!!! My rank has been stuck at 36 for 3 weeks despite trying to get a CQC match every day and having a kill ratio of ~2:1.

This is absolute madness and must be fixed asap. CQC will just die otherwise, and frankly it's currently the most fun thing about Elite, when it actually works...

Have the same problems, for a while now I get regular disconnections during matches. And yes, I kinda expect it to happen now and so I go into cqc less often then before.

Well - the good news is it's better than it was :). The week before last, connection issues were pretty bad, but last weekend it seemed fine until Sunday evening. That was my experience anyway.
My theory (not based on anything substantial...) is that the problems are at the Server end -i.e. FD tinkering with things. Haven't Sundays traditionally been a bit dodgy for stability ?

To be fair though, Mitch did post only one and a half complete working days ago to say it was being looked at though the more this issue stays on the front page, the better. The multitude of "got eight players but game won't start" reports seem to have lost their way in the crowd though I suspect the two issues are related.

I did not want to imply that this issue is ignored. I apologize if I did.

This issues annoys **me** so much that **I** would like to see it on the front page ...

Me too, it's not like getting a game in the first place is easy. Even when you do, you have to negotiate the "waiting for players to join" when there are already enough (I had nine the other day) and then and then the connection goes *bang*

I see quite a lot of reports of connections broken in the main game too. It looks like something is very wrong with the code that connects players with other players or possibly, a recent operating system upgrade has introduced a disturbing new network feature.

I did not wish you imply you were being hasty. I like seeing these bugs on the front page :)

Yes, this was so bad last week that I even started playing in open again 😐 Mining, even. I stopped when I almost fell asleep during SC 😂 Setting the game to use UDP instead of upnp reduced the number of connection errors, but didn't cancel them out completely.

My condolences. :)

Regular connection loss is bad enough like when you trying from europe to play an american server, and the connection chain is just too long, with awfully high ping.
And it's happens anway sometimes even daily, but when you fight?! Angering.
