can't join battles

[RunFatBoyRun]

ok so i start ca, log on fine, but when i try to join an in game battle OR when im on the list when the game starts, the game freezes for a few seconds and then when it unfreezes it takes off the "starting" or "in game" of my name, and then nothing happens.

any idea whats wrong?

It seems lag-related or your computer cannot handle the game, has this been happening before?
Does your computer meet the required specs?
Also, refer to the link located within my signature for lag related problems.

GeForce 8400 GS

I'm pretty sure that's exceeding the specs, but im not sure

and the comp should be able to handle it. The only thing that i can think of is that this comp is on service pack 3 while my other computer is on 2. It seems like it shouldnt matter and i was having trouble getting sp2 to work on this. if its not the specs or sp any idea?

I'll further look into it, though I'd suggest submitting a ticket to Nexon for the time being

already done its kinda annoying how long it takes for them to respond.

the whole problem just doesnt make sense if you can log on and everything it seems like having a diff sp would be different, and the firewall isnt blocking anything at a time when i try to join a battle.

Seeing as your processor plays a rather big role, it's possible.

The processor will be the most likely cause of your inability to join games.
