Public Beta : NAT Issues Correction

Hey guys, here's an important note from Mathieu ! Wish you a good beta week-end all !

------------------------------

Hi everyone,

We have found the cause of the connection freezes you had when starting some games. This is due to the fact that some ports need to be open specifically, in order to allow the peer to peer network communication of RUSE. These ports are currently not documented by Steam, but we have asked them to add them as well to their support page.

We will add an in-game check to verify the availability of these ports before the session is launched, but for the time being, you can verify that your router allows the following ports :

• UDP 3478
• UDP 4379

Please relay this to all players, as one player in a session can still freeze the other ones. Once again, we will later add a detection before the game is started so that noone can block a game unaware of the problem.

Thanks for your attention,

Mathieu Girard
