I haven't played much freeze tag nor WAW for that matter I am usually found on our COD2 servers but I own this game and am having issues with my COD2 and windows 10. Just wanted to watch to see if it was a game that I would want to play and one that won't mess with my equilibrium since it has gun movement that is different than COD2. If spectating "Our >XI< Servers" is not allowed I will just look elsewhere since I can find servers with lower ping out there and plenty of players. I am just getting that itch to play some games but don't want to drop in with zero idea of what I am doing or the maps etc... Thank you in advance for explaining to me why I was kicked.

You're allowed to stay in spec, unless the server is full. I noticed that you were in "download" mod for a while, though... so maybe that's the reason why you got kicked ? What message were you getting exactly ? Because sometimes, when we're in spec for a long time or downloading a map, you get a message saying something like "You've been disconnect from the server", but if you got kick by someone, the message should be more like "You've been kicked". Let us know so that we can try and help you; you're welcome on the WAW servers or any XI servers and not just COD2 anytime !

I had several files to download but that went without a hitch. I was watching and able to comment since I liked the tanks action on the old brecourt map. Also the server was not full and the last time I was kicked there was a second player also spectating. BlackRose 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

We certainly don't want our members going else just because of small things like this, we are free to play on any of our servers and are more than welcome to come join us on COD5. Anyway, there are settings for the game that automatically kick non-XI members for sitting in spectate for more than 3 minutes. This excludes any connection time while if having to download the mod or map files. In checking the server log, you entered the game without your XI tags so the game saw you as a guest to the server. Add the clan tag within the game and you are all set to come in and see how things work and join when you are ready. To add the clan tag, from the main menu: 1. 2. 3. In COD5 FT, we don't move as fast as other games or mods but is more strategic and less run & gun but you are free to play your style. Hope to see you back and if you have any questions, feel free to ask. Cheers PHUCKITMAN, PainKiller, BlackRose and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Wondering what the issue might be with your COD2 is though. Windows 10 does have issues with the old DirectX it ran, if you installed old disks. I had to buy through Steam and it works fine, except sound causes some issues for some. If my headset is plugged in it works, but if speakers it crashes. Don’t know why other than that’s what it “saw” when it installed. Good luck! PHUCKITMAN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

The game is looking for a mic device so if you only have speakers plugged in, it doesn't see a mic and will not run. LtLaszlo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

It sure does make since, when my friend redid the game set up to run on windows 10 so I had no directx issues and running on old OS settings? he said he could not get the game to run using my sound card so the game plays using the onboard sound so I have just had speakers running. Made the wife happy because with no Mic I don't swear or bicker at all when I game so my house is claamer as is my BP. Long story short I plugged a mic in the front of the PC and low and behold COD2 loads and runs. Yippie and thanks for that info you have no idea how frustrated I have been with no COD2 TDM Sniper Maps on the early weekend mornings, loads of fun Merlin007 and Hunter1948 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
