So, I've already confirmed the game isnt region blocked....


Being there you should know the fastest internet in many areas is 1mbps unless its a city then it gets better & then amazing in the big cities, boohoo. Anyone playing on that sadistic 1mbps connection via T-MOBILE deutch Telekom how is it?

Im sorry to disapoint you, but the reason for last nite error were due to region blocking.
The reason the VPN works, is because you virtualy switch REGION!

You could have downloaded the same patch, without a VPN by just forcing the DNS to point on the San Jose Cali servers, in the host file, but where i live, even after downloading, that wouldnt let me play, unless i "virtualy" switched region.

The reason for lastnights error was due to the fact the servers improperly handed out patches depending on your region. Europe is not region blocked at all. Im playing with people from Poland & Germany & Australia. Lmao. The VPN was only required to recieve the patch & the game FFFF:FFFF'd because it was an outdated client not due to region restrictions, in which case should be fixed now.

Im from Denmark, and my IP Were, very much blocked out, even with the patch fully downloaded, confirmed by a DEV. Sorry to inform you.

I were fully able to play by using a VPN
Before i used the VPN i changed my host file to download the patch, np there.
So that were not a issue eiter.
When i removed the vpn setting (not virtualy altering my location)
Not so much able to play

But Denmark is a small country in europe
And as of 4AM .. Denmark or my ip range, were STILL blocked out from playing.

Bandwidth has little to do with latency. You can have a 1mbps connection located near a big central hub and it'll be better latency-wise than most "faster" connections.

As long as the connection is stable (no packet loss) you should have no problems.

I know how to bypass with without a proxy or impacting your internet speed. Use AOL Dialer, I use it to access netflix all the time when im overseas & play Mabinogi. it assigns you an AOL IP (ie an actual ISP as AMERICA ONLINE "still" offers Dial Up XD i.p address not a "known proxy IP" or anything of the sorts) Proxys are so lag inducing & yeah its icky.

Its free though & pretty nifty.
