Failed to Join Game

This started ~ two weeks ago when creating a new game. What is going on? Am I alone?

No I've received the message before. Mostly on the days leading up to the release of
D4. I suspect Blizzard has repurposed a lot of D2r servers to D4 servers. Where do you live? The U.S east coast seems to have gotten the worst of it.

NYC. So I guess that makes me feel 'better'.

Is this when you create a game or try to join one that already exists? I've noticed that sometimes I will get this message when I create a game, and if I try to create another game, I get the same message. But if instead of creating another game, I join the 1st game I created instead, then I will actually be able to join the game that way.

When creating a game.

Joining a game that's in progress that isn't filled shouldn't be an issue.

Exactly, issue only occurs for me upon game creation. I mostly play online SP so don't think I know how to join the phantom game I previously failed to create lol.

Can you name a game in single player, or can you only create a game that has a random number? If you can name it, you should be able to join it even after exiting the game (or getting dropped from the phantom game) . I would be naming my games anyway so just in case you disconnect, you can get back into the same game.

I rarely get more than two 'failed to join game' in a row. So typically I just create a new one right away and it works. Just frustrating.

Same thing is happening to me. I hate blizzard they don’t want us playing D2R obviously. It’s so annoying. After a few tries I get in. But it’s a 30 second wait each time. I’m done with blizzard

Unfortunately still have the issue too. Makes me a sad panda =(

First time logging into D2 after about a month and just got hit with this very first attempt at creating a game.. 2nd attempt worked, but man.. 30-60 seconds of extra loading screens could add up quick with Trav runs.. Not good!

I got 6 in a row tonight, it gets worse on weekends. It ain't gonna change my mind on Blizzard, they are just a bunch of crooks. No D4 for me, no money for you greedy bandits!

I'd rather play a great game for ever than a thousand new lousy games and stupid seasons. Their games now feels like doing dishes...

Still getting this error as well. Sucks man

I had to start using Europe as my region and the problem went away. Only seems to happen for Americas in my case..

I just got it 3 times while doing a one hour

Travincal TZ run. Sometimes it's "Failed to Join Game," and at other times it's a "connection interrupted" message.
