The reason they rf server s down is because THQ istrying to reduce the lag in the game FEAR. I heard there was alot of lag on that game so they shut the rf server. That might be the reason i guess.
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! RF will never die !
F.E.A.R. is a sierra game not THQ so check your sources before posting thanks.

Oh yeah it was a Monolith game Stupid old me
Still we need to sue THQ for not giving the complete source code to Volition and to not give complete control to Volition like giving the Master Server to Volition too
??? strange strange, a friend of me told me just a few minutes ago that he had been playing RedFaction without any problems with the master tracker being down.
I went into the game to check it out and it still says the master server is down?!?!?!...
how can this be very very stange and kinda impossible in my opinion.
Master is down for me and most of you guys but he just went in and joined a server. without typing in any ip adresses or something.??
Wierd wierd very wierd. I'm totally puzzeled

Maybe he joined using his saved favorites?
You know by hitting the LAN tab then switching back again. You can then fresh your favorites one by one to see if they are still active.
Nah I don't think he has any favorits, he is kinda of a computer noob. I might go over there tonight to check out what he has done, but i don't believe he added something to favorits he simple wouldn't think of it.

me and my friends have been trying that IP join thing, havent had any luck.... do you have to set something in the RF setting or something?
For anyone reading this in 2019 or later: The RF community is alive on the Community Discord
lol ive already done it. on the server list screen look for the button LAN click on it aand then to the bottom right look for "Add servers" there put the ip of the server u wanna join. and whoever is running the server cant have the port 7755..thats the master servers port that is down. so tell them to change it to like 7756 in the launcheer of rf on the connection tab

Has nothing to do whith master port or something. THQ
will get the server up end off this week or next week, i
posted already the mail i have recieved from them.
If u have any IP and port u can play RF. Its not important
if it is 7755. Any server , ( most have ) still 7755 on.
For our 10 rf servers i used ports over 11000 because we use
a level3 internet line.
