Hey all, I tried connecting to GC's CSGO server by 'connect' through console, and it kept giving me an error message 'Banned by server'. Eventually, I got kicked back to the main menu where it said the connection failed after 30 tries. I also cannot connect to the CS GO server through my friend's list; there is no option to join game. If I hit "Join Game" on a friend's profile, it does nothing. I'm going to try and see if it's a firewall issue. I can join other games on random servers using official matchmaking, but I haven't tried to see if I can join random servers through the server browser. (Also, I had to level up to Private Rank 2 and see if that fixed the issue: it didn't). I can watch the game if someone invites me though, which is strange. I don't know if I've actually been banned, but I wanted to cover all of my bases. ' EDIT: Uh, I'll wait 21 hours too and see if that's the problem. Apparently, I get a 21 hour ban after 2 wins. Had no idea this was a design choice by Valve. Welp, I guess I'll play with you guys another time.

I'll try to make it.

For Honor is free on Steam until August 27: https://store.steampowered.com/agecheck/app/304390/ FYI, it's the Starter Edition that is free. If you're planning on unlocking everything for free, the Starter Edition requires 8000 Steel (in-game currency) to unlock base characters (aside from Warden, Raider, and Kensei, which are all available from the start) and 15000 Steel for DLC characters. I recently unlocked a few classes when they had a discount, where 8000 dropped to 5000 and 15000 to 10000. They are adding a 4th faction of Chinese-based characters in October; those are also 15000 Steel each.
