I Bought Men Of War on steam played it for weeks and one day as i try to join a server i got this message shown on the pic attached. Now every time i go to multiplayer and log in to the lobby i got about 10 seconds before same crash occures again and i find myself on desktop.
Havent tried uninstalling.

I got Windows xp, Dual core 2Ghz, 2GB Ram, Nvidia 8600GT 500MB
All help is appreciated.

I have started experiencing that exact same error about 10 minutes ago. It was working fine, like yours.

This also happened to me a few weeks ago, but I just kept restarting MoW and eventually it worked. It doesn't seem to be working this time, however.

From what I managed to see for the few seconds I was in the MP lobby, everyones rank showed 0 with no rank symbol. Servers seemed to update fine.

Since neither of us modified anything i'm assuming it's Gamespy or something. I would also appreciate help

EDIT: It's working now, even though I did not do anything. I guess you have to just keep trying every few minutes.

The server was uploading a minor change to the system. There is nothing wrong with your computer and MP should be working fine now.

i have been experiancing this problem also for over a week now.

I restored the game to a previous version and had to patch back up again and this seemed to fix it, but the otherday i could not get it working again so i did a total uninstall and reinstall. The game worked fine for 2 days, but today i logged in to the MP lobby and the game terminated again. I have tried everything to fix it but to no avail. So i am just about to reinstall yet again.

I have just performed a total reinstall and then booted the game in its base version (1.02.1 i think)

I tried a few minutes of SP and all seemed fine, i then joined the MP lobby and it crashed after 10 seconds....

.............

I have the same isue. I think the problem is connected to the number of players in the lobby. On weekdays, when there are less players around, I never experienced this. Dunno how to fix it though, but doubt reinstall helps. Must be a server issue.

hi, yeah i guess your right about it being a server issue, at least i hope so.

After trying to rejoin the server 5 times this afternoon and crashing i gave up.

I came back to it this evening to try again..... the first 2 times i tried to join the lobby it terminated on me. 10 minutes later i thought i would try one more time and this time i have managed to join the lobby and not get booted.

Most likely it will happen again before the night is over though !!

So 1C technical guys can you take a look at my crash reports posted above and help me get this fixed please.
