  • Testing Direct IP

    Dear All,

    I am looking for a brave soul (or two) who would be willing to spend some time on testing out how game play through Direct IP works and feels. The main objective for me would be to make sure that my firewall lets me play via Direct IP (I can configure the firewall -- it's really just a router -- so eventually I will be able to, no doubt), and to get a generic feel of this game style. If everything goes well, we can even proceed into a real game.

    To give a little background, I am currently in several PBEM games and I kinda like it, except it's a bit slow. For a change, I tried playing via GameSpy, which looks terrible on paper and is terrible in real life. So my last hope is Direct IP.

    Please send me a PM or reply to this thread if you are interested. Yeah, and please make sure you are not behind a firewall or (even better!) you can configure yours.

    Thank you,

    Delmar

    I am available most weekends, and some weekday evenings. We appear to be near the same time zone.

    Let me know if you want me to help you get started. The same goes for anyone else, just remember, there is only so much to go around.

                    [SIZE=1] Do you agree to #5 in my last PM?
                    #5 was just a rehash, so I didnt think I needed to agree again, but I did. See you tonight
