There's a possible solution for this issue.

We have performed an experiment - disabled specific features in the firewall while enabling others. We believe that we have isolated the issue, and it may have something to do with United States networking companies routers.

Check this screenshot. It's this line: Protect against port scan (Blocks for one day any devices characterized as performing a port-scan on the WAN interface)

Alternatively, it could be a combination of modifications we've done to the router firewall.

i tried connectToGameServer() after hiting ctrl ` asoon as i clicked "play" ( i have to put the server my character loged out in aswell) it goes from intialiazing to "waiting for server" few lines of code i hear some ingame noises (sound of barns animals etc)then it says, the server has terminated the connection: kick reason: patching failed

[Nightborder]

same here....for 20 mins now

[Jmonteiro]

Also having the issue. Disabled Windows firewall, executed command on CTRL+`, configured DMZ network on my computer.

I'm using a Brazilian ISP.

Most of the connectivity issues are, unfortunately, on our side. This one was present before, and we are very sorry that we still have not managed to completely fix it yet We'll resolve this issue as soon as possible. You can help us do that by sending your dxdiag and game logs to helpmmo@lifeisfeudal.com

Thank you.

Thank you.

Finished before the end of CBT 2?
Some have paid to get to it and can not play because of an error from the open servers after the break January. Previously there was no such problem.
And reports are sent all the time and do not see any answers to them (helpmmo@lifeisfeudal.com).
I do not see progress.

I just Bought the game today and i'm very disapointed about this issue because i can't connect at all ! i tried during 5 6 hours , nothing ... stuck on initializing process. I 'm from France , i've a good connection and a good computer . Can you seriously help us , because if that's your responsability , and not mine ? my lawyer could enjoy that !

Best regards !

[Arrakis]

that's your responsability

And we are taking it very seriously. The purpose of those closed beta test is to determine the cause of those connectivity issues so we can actually fix them. So instead of threatening us with your lawyer, you could actually try to help us by sending your game logs to helpmmo@lifeisfeudal.com if you don't mind

Thank you very much.

An interest in that. Every day after work I will be logged and sent these "(rzekomo)" useful mistakes. https://lifeisfeudal.zendesk.com/hc/en- ... 891?page=1.
Enjoy reading.

Why is everyone acting like this is release? The shit you are dealing with in early access is the same shit you are going to brag about going through to other players that did not suffer through this 2 years from now.

Vets now are already telling tales of times when there were no personal claims and you had to make a warehouse to store your shit.

You thought alpha tester and true believers were just titles???? There's real suffering in there lol.

Amen Ishmael!

Are there any theories of what is causing the problem?

[Amokz]

I'll add that I purchased the game and was able to login on first try after installation and played a little bit. After leaving for an errand, I returned and have not been able to connect ever since. I have:
uninstalled/reinstalled (including wiping remnant files)
tried the connect to server command
acquired a new IP from ISP and for system
ran a full diagnostics on host pc
tried to ensure files are okay on startup (integrity)

Zero success.

To the Admins: Troubleshooting
1. Go through the detailed log (I hope you're keeping one) of all changes prior to this issue and find which control connections.
2. Ensure you're releasing connections on the server (closing) to ensure you're not reaching max connections.
3. If not the server(s) themselves, try ensuring clients and servers are communicating correctly.
4. Routing: as the beta server I keep seeing is in Germany, there may actually be an ISP change which could be affecting your service. Crazy connections and setups in Europe lately.
5. Error logging. There's always 1-5 errors on startup about some issue or another, one in particular for graphics, but I've seen very little about the fixes for these images.

As an aside, server handoff could use some looking at. 32-33 requires you go 200 yards into the woods (south of water) and then head up. Of course, transferring from swimming to shore is another issue in itself.

My useless .02

In the 4 weeks CBT I've only had the initializing problem once and since then I've always used the console immediately after selecting character and I've always logged in fine since. I fired up steam the other day as I haven't in a few weeks. I turn it off if I'm not using it and forgot to turn steam off 2 days ago when I loaded LIF MMO and noticed I only get the initializing problem when steam is running.

Edit*

Alas, I spoke too soon. I now have the initializing issue regardless of if steam is running or not. But I found out if I completely unplug my modem and wireless USB and reset the internet, restart LIF MMO and it works.

what do you mean exactly with "reset the internet"?

thx

[Jamaicus]

Simply unplug the modem and or your wireless connection (USB or Ethernet cord) for 15 seconds and that should reset your ip. This worked for me

[Rickjames]

The biggest question that i have is... why the hell should i have to go thru all these vodoo steps to connect to the mother#@#!$ game!. This should be fixed for 100 percent of us when this next wave comes up. It totally killed participation for my guild this time around because of how hard it was to actually get in the damn game. I literally had to try for hours to get in if it was not first thing in the morning. I have a suspicion it has to do with how long the dispatch server has been up without a reboot. If this is the case keep rebooting it? I mean once i get in the game i do not seem to have a issue with crashing ( once i have the game fully loaded in and tiles updated) i have to wait a few min for it all to load once i get in but once that is past i can do whatever i need to do for hours. But when i click play I NEED to be able to get into the game not do some vodoo ritual of running this and doing that and turning this on or off it should just work

[MERAPIXI]

Welcome back. As you have suppose since the last time nothing has changed. You continue the problem of "Inicjazlization". Again I tried all the solutions and none of them worked ... I use the command connectToGameServer () I changed the game settings to a low level I turned off the Fajerwalla and awast On the router available all ports I installed the game on another computer Nothing helped I send the txt repro. Will to warn people before buying something that does not work is one thing that it is Beta but for such money you should do better.

I have make my firewall off, graphic Settings are low, reconnect the Internet but don´t works for me.
Have anyone a idea what can helps to work?

I hope for i can find here one what can help me.

[RickySpanish]

FIX: connectToGameServer () worked.
Ctrl ~ to open console while you're looking at the "initializing" and enter
connectToGameServer ()

i have the same problem.

[Dree91]

i can´t open the console with press:

ctrl ~

[Hotratchet]

turn off firewall see if that works .

doesn't make any sense... why are we able to connect to the newbie server and not on the main server... i doubt its a firewall issue.

[Rubbaduck]

For all you guys who want to play the game.
A friend of mine had the same issue.

What Fixed the problem was creating a new character. Maybe the newbie server the character wants to join in is down or whatever.

A new Character fixed the Problem imidiately.
Try it and post it here to verify.

greetings

[Saarith]

I had this same problem.

Closed Steam.

Problem solved.

I'm going to go on a limb and say that in general this issue is caused by some interference between the game and some program that is running in the background.

You all should try to turn them off one by one and find the interfering program, starting with Steam. Remember that Steam is still running in the background if you just close the Steam screen, you need to click the little icon in the taskbar and press exit there.

Trying hitting ctrl and ~ to open the console when you're stuck on initializing and then type in ConnectToGameServer. If it says kicked due to patching failed just keep hitting play a repeating the process. This is the way I usually get in.

Stand on your head. Blink. And wave your wings ... I tried all the methods. I even installed Lif on another PC and it did not work.

[Fireraizer]

Unfortunately, itnus definately a problem with some people's internet. Mine included. There must be a security precaution or something that is interfering.

[Life28]

Same issue here with "kick reason: Patching Failed" error.
I read some of the error lines in command line and it seems that game is checking our files if they match server files. They don´t. The only true solution here is to disable files checking on server-side during connecting but I don´t know how it will impact server and game.

In my case, I just repaired game files in launcher, it downloaded about 80MB and I am able to play on main island.

[MERAPIXI]

turn off firewall see if that works .

Not help .... I made all the activities found on the forum: I uninstalled the game 10x use the command connectToGameServer () I changed the game settings to a low level I turned off the Fajerwalla and awast On the router available all ports I installed the game on another computer. Nothing helped I send the txt repro and i dont hawe answer

[Stefanpizetta]

Hey,
something worked for me...
I reinstalled the game and changed its directory to "C:\Life is Feudal MMO". My game was installed in my .\users directory.
Dont' know if it was coincidence but now I can connect to the game everytime at my PC.
At my notebook I can connect if I type "connectToGameServer" in the console... but it works.
