Original Post — Direct link

Hello, I bought standard access 5 days ago to play cup of the day. Problem is, while everything else works fine, whenever I join the server, I only get a view from above on the track, nothing else happens. Then I need to close the game via Alt F4 or wait 3-5 minutes until server timeout. Over the course of the last 5 days I tried it ~15 times and only managed to join and actually play COTD once, on the first day, with only 6 minutes of qualification time left
My connection is very good, my PC is good enough and I tried tips like joining the track first in offline mode. Offline and ranked works perfect, the problem only occurs on COTD
What can I try now?

Hey there @Amundsen96

Thank you for reaching out, I'm sorry to see you're having issues getting connected.

If you haven't done so already, please ensure you've completed all of the steps in our connectivity guide, including port forwarding if there's no change too.

I appreciate you may have a good connection generally, but that doesn't confirm there's nothing impacting the connection between your home network and the Trackmania servers, so these steps are still key.

Let us know how you get on and if there's any changes!
