I've seen this problem come up a number of times throughout this forum but there has been no definite solution. I've done everything to my MW3 install for it to run 4d1 (dlcs, patches, etc.) but to no avail. Whenever I click Play I keep getting stuck on the connecting to online services message. I've even tried adding exceptions in my firewall, disabling it completely, disabling UAC, running as administrator and doing a clean reinstall. This is strange since IW4M on the other hand, runs perfectly without any problems...

 

Thanks

Known problem. Wait until its fixed

Thanks for the reply.

but there has been no definite solution.

 

That is because there is no solution. Its a pretty common error, but it has no solution whatsoever. The dev team is working on fixing this error asap. In the meanwhile, some people mention that installing a 32bit OS somehow let's them play the game, its unconfirmed, but its worth a shot if you are that desperate.

10. I'm stuck at 'Connecting to online services."

Server may be down or you can't connect to the NP server/not allowed to connect. Make sure to be running the LATEST IW5 files from Steam.

 

As IVIodern said though it is a common problem and you will have to wait for GOD NTA to fix it. (If the above didn't work for you of course)

Idk if my error counts as the same thing,but iv heard multiple times that people have gotten both errors or that they are connected somehow. Anyway I get the "Connecting...." error after clicking on a server to join, but I have 32 bit so idk if that is relative or not. Just thought I'd let you know.
