Hey, I know WaW is an old game and the first thing going through your head is "No one ever plays that game anymore", but that isn't the case. I have turned off my firewall, turned on my dmz, and forwarded the 28960 and 3074 ports. But for some reason no one joins my servers. I wait for 10 minutes and am lucky if one person joins. I join a lobby and in 10 seconds its filled. What's the case here? And if you're hear to say "no one ever plays it anymore" then **** off, I am looking for help, not for someone to flame. Thanks in advance!

Most people who still play it, stick to the servers they've been playing. New server, no players, could be ping issues too! Hard to switch to a new server if the one you've been playing you still enjoy. CoD World at War (WaW)

Ahh. I actually played it online a couple of months ago and had no trouble finding a game.

Sounds like you are just hosting a server on your PC, which would explain why no one joins it
