    Same problem GT3s at Nurbs this week, multiple times I was fully registered and when it was time to join the button never enabled for me

    No problem so far with MX-5s at Laguna and F4s at RBR

    Again it happened. 2nd time in a couple of days. I'm registered but game refuses to enable the 'Join Server' button. Really getting disillusioned with this game.

    Bwoah, it's a total mess today, heavy server load I assume, loading screens loading forever, even if you are lucky and get registrated, it's a gamble to be able "to join or not join" (Shakespeare) or having something (anything useful/applicable) displayed on the screen in front of you , doing LB qualy directly via Lobby it consecutively seems to ignore any improvement (STW Salzburg) while it works simply joining LB the usual way, at least it did at my last attempt just half an hour ago. Trying to get to the weekly slot (I actually registered for DTM 95 tonite) is almost impossible, it loads, shows something, than reloads, then sends me back to the main menu a.s.o.- a not so funny merry-go-round indeed, pretty sure it will take a good while until all that is ironed out...:confused::rolleyes:
    And on top I had a first CTD after months, wheel locked up, nothing goes...dmp.file see down there

    I have been dealing with this since the update.. so frustrating to wait 30mins for your race then you can't connect.
    Really like this sim , but if this doesn't stabilize I'm going to have to seriously look at other sims for online.
    Been on LMU , but I find the racing here to be cleaner and I like the variety here as well.

    same here. I literally live according to the race calendar. I warm up for minutes while waiting for the race to start and finally this is it. bam server starting and reload error.

    Well,to be fair, the devs never had the chance to check out their server capacities under (real) heavy load before :D:rolleyes::cool:...

    Update: I could join the 9pm DTM 95 session, all smooth, 18 drivers on the grid but unfortunately a more or less uneventful race due to performance gaps...(and even the most sophisticated matchmaking couldn't do something about it - simply not enough players around).
    Same for the 22:45pm ST session, all smooth, but full house (30+drivers) tho a bit unlucky on my side..
    Ok for night owls like me (who can afford to race late evening) it might be good option to totally avoid racing between 5-9 pm (earliest) for now ;)
