Hey guys,
Sorry to be a bother, but I play Assault Cube on my PC and it works fine, I decided to put it on a VERY old Lab top for my little brother so we can play at the same time. But whenever he tries to connect to multiplayer the game says.
"Masterserver is not replying"
Does anyone know how to fix this? Or atleast know why it's doing this?

[ocd]laptop! LAPTOP!! not "lab top!!!" xP[/ocd]
anyways, does the laptop connect to the internet? what version of ac is it running? what operating system is the laptop? also, make sure that the laptop's firewall is not blocking ac from accessing the internet.
the reason is that ac cant access the internet :P

Sorry about that, but my labtop (: is connected to the internet. AC is running 1104(1.1.0.4) The firewall is off, and the OS is windows XP.

how sure are you that your firewall is off? the reason i say that is because windows can be very deceiving... :/

Control Panel>Firewall
Options were ON(Recommended) and Off.
Off was checked.

Look in your system tray (bottom right of taskbar) for any icons that look like security applications: it could be an umbrella, a multicoloured square, a "house" with a flag, an A on a sphere, an "N" on a sphere, etc.

Add an exception in your firewall.

It could be your anti-virus blocking AC. Try to go through your anti-virus software sor any security options to check if that's the problem.

MAC MAC MAC.
Indeed, we are all interested in your panacea of how you unleashed the masterserver to the full and made it available. Of course, the answer would be very appreciable in case someone is looking for the same retort. And no I did not use a thesaurus, this all comes form my smart mind of geniusness.

A Mac is just as capable of getting a virus as any other operating system, it's just that nobody deems it important enough to bother writing one for the Mac. :)
Microsoft is the company that everybody loves hate. Quite honestly I wish it were Apple, personally. Anyway, I'm sure to receive a ton of hate mail this post, but I just wanted to make the point that Macs are not immune to viruses.

Don't need antivirus, nty. Antivirus companies are people that make the viruses themselves, so they sell their software so you don't get them. It's expensive, it slows down your comp too much, and you need to upgrade every 5 seconds for a 2 hour long download.
