I was just able to connect. I'll post again if I am unable to connect again in the future...thx

I am having the same issues. It would not connect last week. After a couple of days I was able to connect and now it is back to not connecting.
I wanted to add to this thread so I will be notified when the "problem fixed" post is added...

Yep that was it. The new version defaulted to one of those other campaigns (Allied)... Thanks problem solved.

I have tried two separate downloads and both have resulted in being unable to begin new games. The required content package seems to be missing. Any suggestions?
