Whenever I start a game, it shoots me back to the lobby and shows a "please wait" message that never goes away, but only since the new patch.

Same! Every single time it just pings me straight back after loading. Even in a skirmish vs AI :/

there's a couple of things you can try.

First make sure you are running RelicCoH2.exe and Steam as an administrator (for all users) and all compatibility modes are turned off.

Restart Steam and try the game.

Still not working? Mine didn't either after this though tons of people said this worked for them.

Now follow the steps here: http://joshmccarty.com/2012/01/turn-off-compatibility-mode-for-steam/

Be sure to delete the registry files for steam (and coh2 if you want to be extra diligent) in all 3 spots the link says to look.

Now restart your computer and reset steam and coh2 to run as administrators for all users.

It will hopefully works now, it did for me. Cheers

Did not work for me. Steam was not in compat mode, run as admin also did not work. Also there is a 13.2mb file that verifies from steam when I validate but it never applies... Broken. Damnit.

Didnt work for me.
I have the same problem I used both fixes...
The problem with the second fix is that i cant delete the entry because the folder layers is missing...
I only have: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Compatibility Assistant\Persisted

Same issue, again, third time since closed beta my game randomely doesn't work. I'm at cliff's edge. Wonder why I'm not playing my friends? Most of the time I friggin can't.

I feel dirty and ashamed to even be associated with the game now. -Esky

i didnt have my steam in compatibility mode either, i just cleared the registry to be sure and it worked. the verify cache problem though is not cool, cuz that could be relic or it could be steam :/
