Getting MaxCcuReached Error When Connecting to Friend's Server

I keep running into this annoying MaxCcuReached error whenever I attempt to connect to my buddy’s private server room. It’s really frustrating because it happens almost every time I try to join. Sometimes if I reboot my computer or keep trying multiple times it might work, but that’s not a reliable solution. I’m not sure what’s actually causing this problem or how to properly fix it. The error message doesn’t give much detail about what’s going wrong. Has anyone else experienced this same issue before? I would really appreciate any suggestions or solutions that might help resolve this connection problem. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Sometimes that error pops up if there’s leftover connection data stuck somewhere. Try fully closing the game through task manager before reconnecting, worked better than just regular restarts for me.

I’ve had this happen before and it’s usually not about the server being full. MaxCcuReached can also pop up if there’s some weird connection issue or if the server is having trouble handling connections properly. Your friend might need to restart their server or check if their router/firewall is blocking repeated connection attempts. The fact that rebooting sometimes fixes it makes me think it’s more of a networking hiccup than a player limit thing.

Sounds like a timing issue to me. Try waiting a few minutes between connection attempts instead of spamming the connect button right away.

Check if your friend’s server has port forwarding set up correctly, that fixed it for me

I had a similar issue before and it was super annoying. What helped was clearing my connection cache and making sure there weren’t any VPNs or proxies running. Also, double-check that you and your friend have the same game version. Mismatches can lead to those random errors. Good luck!

Try connecting through a different network if possible, mobile hotspot worked for me when this happened

That error usually comes up when the server is full. Maybe your friend needs to adjust the max player settings in their server config to let more people in.
