First post w00t!

Ok, the problem is that whenever I try to join a game, it brings me to the lobby only to give me the message ''lost connection'' 5 seconds later. Is this because I need certain updates?

If it appears that you were disconnected before the game started, then it's most likely that the host kicked you out of their game. Ask me about kicking to learn the main reasons why they would do that.
If you keep getting thrown out of other people's games, it may be for several reasons: 1) You may not have the latest update. 2) The host is asking everyone to say the rules, and you're not replying. 3) The host wants to play with his friends or people from his country.
Please see http://worms2d.info/Using_WormNET - specifically, the Finding a game that's appropriate for you section.:rolleyes:

that update thing has to be it. Where can I download the latest updates?

It would have taken you less time to check the sticky threads than to reply to this thread...

Wait, what? You can't even join WormNET if you have an old enough version.

You can get the W:A update from there ^

What makes his post even sillier is that there's a link to a thread with a link to the latest Beta Update in CyberShadow's signature.
