There will be no Call to Power 3.

would be even better if they brought out call to power 3 with direct ip play.great game deserves another sequel.

There were a few official Activision servers to begin with and i suppose the fact that the company broke apart wouldnt have helped. I found a list of all the servers Activison used to have, i remember alot of those, if not all were CTP2 compatible in their time. http://lazyboy.multiservers.com/i82servers.html

It is understandable that they had to cut their servers at some time for a 4 year old game. Without knowing what choices they had for MP, if only there was direct IP play.

Maq,

That sound for nowadays quite normal. It is called outsorcing(sp?).............

Not sure though if it is good..........

Activision Support said last time we hassled them, the servers are all 3rd party now, so any concern we have we should contact the providers of the servers directly which is strange for a game that promises MP on the box cover.

[Dinner]

Yep, the servers are still down. Do you think maybe activision has stopped supporting MP?

[patrol]

ive tried emailing but i also dont get a reply.maybe I'll draw them a picture or something.lol

BTW if anyone didnt want to play multiplayer or stopped playing because of the rush-buy bug, then take a look at all these cheats for Civ2 MP and you thought it was hard to spot one bug

all irrelevant if theres no servers though.....

[Maquiladora]

As i was saying, maybe we need to email gamepoint and ask them whats going on with the server? (i say 'we', but i emailed them last time the server died and got no response and i cant speak Dutch) Locutus?

Also keep checking,
