    Hey Gents,

    I just purchased PA via steam for the prealpha v.49525. Excited to play the game, I immediately search for a quick match. However I found myself to be waiting 30 minutes on the "waiting for match" screen on both Europe and American quick searches. Is this a bug or are people simply not playing the game? I've done a couple google searches and came to no luck.

    Thank you,
    Detox

    That's not normal and you've most likely got an issue with your internet connection.

    For me the wait time on that screen is a few seconds. Try opening ports in your firewall in the 9000 range.

    That's strange, normally I do not get any internet connection issues with FPS games. Is there any specific port that I have to forward?
