No one can connect to my demo copy of the campaign

I can not connect to my own game through external IP but I can connect via internal IP (Lan mode)

I've opened 1802 to forward to the lan mode address

It pings on pcflank as being stealthed. My firewall is off totally

I LIVE IN CHINA. I've just moved here, and I *NEED* this game to work hahaha

So I dont know if my ISP is firewalled or what but I dont want to give up until I've exhausted all my options

ANYONE can help with this strange situation of being in Asia, well take a stab i'll try anything and Im in no rush

I just want to buy an ultimate license but its useless if no one can connect


Peace!

Three words my friend "You need Hamachi"
I had two players who lived in China (until about 3 months ago) and the only option for connecting with them was Hamachi. damn the Great Firewall of China.

Ill try this in a few hours and get back to you but THANK you!

Could you connect to them or did they have to connect to you?

And yeah... the great firewall is a mistake in every way
