Failed to connect.. VOIP... Egypt....

Egypt officially announced that they blocked VOIP service and this will affect online games CF, LOL.... And there is nothing I can do about this... For me its Bad but for you UK, EU guys is a good thing, of course the majority you meet with Egyptians is...
So it's just a matter of time when you will see 0 Egys on the servers.

Hate to say it, but forced to do it.. BB CF was good 5 years.

    Where did they officially announce this?
  • VOIP means Voice Over IP. So if this is true, you wont be able to use services like teamspeak, discord, mumble, etc.

    You should be still able to play CF.

    Just type in google VOIP egypt and you will find some stuff about that.
    Skype is blocked for 6 years already.

    This is the main reason they blocked VOIP for.

    The NTRA of Egypt (National Telecom Regulatory Authority) mentioned that there will be a great loss for telecommunications companies in Egypt after WhatsApp enabled free voice calls.

    Once i join the ping jumps to 5k, 6k then a pop up with Failed to connect appears. So no I can't :(

    Here in this screenshot http://prntscr.com/b99lz1 you can find TE data (the largest ISP in Egypt) says that " For sorry, Due to Blocking VOIP, Some of online games have been affected. "

    Well, I did search for an English link you can read and count on but i failed.

    That's crazy..
  • Still works fine for me and my friends. They are just testing how we are going to react if they block VOIP, that is why it works for the majority. Don't quit any online game, just find yourself a good VPN for some days/weeks and everything will be fine.

    Using VPN is against the Terms of Services rules and can result in you or op getting banned if caught.
  • There's only 2 Egys I actually like on CF & that's Moe & someone who's not 124, other then that Most CF ones are annoying, but They're pretty chill people in real life.

    I don't go against them for using it, if their country has such a bad/corrupt government regime.











    I hope everything works out well in the time ahead, because if matters got worse and if it were to truly affect our Egyptian/ME players from playing our game, CF NA/UK would pretty much be critically affected to the point of death (since they are more/less around our 70% player base).

    Meaning mostly only paying players would be left making the game p2w wait...

    I'm not saying I blame them if they turn to that, just mentioning what the consequences may be, that's all.
  • Well, I was talking generally not only about CF, just telling him how to pass that VOIP block thing, but I see your point :)
  • There's only 2 Egys I actually like on CF & that's Moe & someone who's not 124, other then that Most CF ones are annoying, but They're pretty chill people in real life.

    Anyone who can speak English at a Brit's level is a good Egy. And I know 2 or 3 that speak English as good as me, if not better.
    And anyway smart Egys will use a VPN, considering the playerbase and how many people probably use a VPN already.

    I don't see anything wrong with this.
    If Egys leave, many old timers who stopped because of their lagging/abusing/hacking, will come back.
    And SG West could just close down CF EU and open registrations for Europe again. (Yes, it is as easy as i present it to be)
    And the most important: I will play HMX again without teleports and kick abusing! I will even make a HMX clan if this miracle ever happens.

    Well, it's true. Some old legendary farmers like y0ungstar came back some weeks ago. He directly left after 1 game. Pretty sad. But I have to give him right. If I didn't spent much money in this game. I would stop too

    I still play HMX even though it's complete trash. I get cancer, but I still love that mode... But then again, I'm standing somewhere with my Barrett and a random Middle Eastern player randomly teleports besides me and I get mutated. Or even when I am commando, they go through me and hit me with their back. It makes me rage a lot.

    If it's as easy as you make it sound, I wouldn't worry, but I doubt it lol. The game would be better in a way for sure without their presence, no more foreign ping laggers/cheaters ect, but then our CF NA/UK version would have to at least re-invest in big advertisements to recover/gain old players/new players to our servers to try make up for the player base numbers lost (would be very expensive though and i'm not sure they'd do it).

    It has been suggestion back in the day... But still no action about this, people are leaving, regretting how much money did they spend on this game, players with good intentions who are devoted to give new and innovative idea to boost the game's profit and players' satisfaction. I just don't know man, I'm tired of suggesting ideas and stuff that is going to be ignored over and over again. I feel like this game will not lasts long if they don't listen to the players who cared more than they do. The people behind CFNA should invest more towards their players and making the game enjoyable and appreciated by the loyal fans instead of just taking their money from the events keeping it for themselves.

    SG's main priority is CF China, they only hear suggestions from the CN player base about new content and changes. The other versions are all copy-paste from the Chinese and they only serve to fill their pockets with more money. Nothing more.
  • So, when is this going to happen? Lmao. Im waiting for it.

    This ain't heaven.
  • Is it all internet companies or TE Data and Vodafone only ?
  • Cf working good with me.
    You are Te-data?
    If you are tedata try to change to Orange DSL 1mb (65-98 ping )
