Just downloaded WC2 from the blizzard launcher. Trying to play online and I cant get past the downloading software upgrade screen. Tried repairing game, running as admin, allowing firewall etc.
Just want to be able to play online, any help is appreciated
i am having the same exact issue, hoping this get’s resolved.
Same issue. Not sure if there’s a port that needs to be forwarded?
Same issue. I did forward ports 6112 - 6119, although I think that is only for gameplay. Not downloading patches
