Ever since the DNS issues occured or what not-- the game is not loading with Firefox. From the comments I'm not the only one experiencing difficulties. From that link above the game simply won't load. When trying with the beta AG I just get the 'download flash' thumbnail (am up to date.)

Yet the game does work with IE. So not sure entirely what is going on. Any help would be most appreciated, thank you.

Second link you provided is broken. What do you mean, doesn't work? It just doesn't load?

Oops, mustve put that in wrong. [url=http://armorgames.com/play/12384/vortex-wars]

But yes, the game won't load at all with Firefox. All other games loading fine.

I could log in with Chrome. Perhaps try that. I don't think it's a Flash issue, though it might have something to do with plug ins.

Aye, game still works with IE (don't have chrome)-- just curious as to why there are issues with Firefox just recently (and if anyone know what the issues are.)

The game is loading fine for me when I use Firefox, but it is glitching out more than usual. Your flash is updated correct?

Yeah, I have the latest version of flash (11.1.102.55.) Really don't get it. Loads fine for IE. All other games load fine for me as well with Firefox-- just this one (the one I've been playing the most) is having difficulty. Simply will not load. When right clicking in the area get a 'Movie not loaded...' deal.

Loads fine for IE.


Also loads fine for Chrome. In addition, Devoidless called IE a non-actual browser a few months ago.

I also have something else to say about Vortex Wars: I recently got affected by a bug in which I couldn't select a starting region.

I have gotten that a couple of times too. Very interesting bugs it's having recently. Had one where it distributed units randomly when the manual option was on as soon as you hit end turn.

I'm using Firefox and that game works fine. Is your Firefox version updated to the latest version (which is Firefox 8)? I'm aware that your flash player is up to date, but you didn't mention Firefox. Also, are you using any extensions? If so, try disabling them to see if they are interfering with the game.

In addition, Devoidless called IE a non-actual browser a few months ago.

Irrelevant. Simply because a moderator says something doesn't make it automatically true. IE isn't a good web browser to use compared to Chrome, Opera, Firefox, Chromium, and Safari, but it'll get the job done when you want to play flash games or browse around the web.

Have Firefox 8, so up to date there. Tried disabling my 3 extensions... and still won't work. I am completely baffled at this point.

Try using a different computer if you have one at your disposal. Are you still just getting a blank white screen?
