YAKUZA_24 Posted December 11, 2020 Report Share Posted December 11, 2020 Hi there, due to the DOS problems getting more and more during online games, I am thinking of hosting a game (as spectator account) in my Azure VM. And I am joining than via my real account from my normal PC as Player. Is this even possible? (Hosting as spectator). What I HOPE that will help, is that Azure recognizes the DOS Attack and tryes to block it. So I tryed to create a VM and download/install the game and create an Account. Everything worked fine, until Account creation: I get the Message "incorrect User or PW", but this is the Account I created seconds ago from this client! Is it some kind of connection Problem? can you tell me, what kind of Ports/ Settings etc. must be ok to make it work? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan` Posted December 11, 2020 Report Share Posted December 11, 2020 So first I am forced to remind you that the ToU doesn't allow you to have two accounts unless authorized. Then there is currently an issue with case sensitivity in the lobby, try with a lowercase username. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YAKUZA_24 Posted December 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2020 (edited) Thanks for the reminder, well this account should technicaly just be the host and spectator and not actively playing. But I could also just use my normal (playing) account. I will try this, thanks! But I could still need help with the settings then Edited December 11, 2020 by YAKUZA_24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YAKUZA_24 Posted December 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2020 (edited) I was able to create and join with a testuser with lower case letters. I was able to be in the lobby for about 10sec. Then this happened: Now I can't join anymore. Edited December 11, 2020 by YAKUZA_24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan` Posted December 11, 2020 Report Share Posted December 11, 2020 Maybe you got banned for multiaccounts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badosu Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 I think this counts as a reasonable case for authorization, since he's not technically using it as a player account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YAKUZA_24 Posted December 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 Thanks for your answers and support for my thing. But it is not relevant if I use the newly created "hosting" Account, or if I use my normal Player Account - I can't login from the Azure Server Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure and I would definitely vet him but I don't make the lobby rules and I don't want to bypass @user1 But yeah maybe the IP got banned I don't know. If it has I'm sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YAKUZA_24 Posted December 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 it never worked from this VM, even the first time I created a new Account. So the game couldn't have known that there is another acc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
