Plsssss somebody help - I need to play AC on-line with asomebody!

[vivid]

I love the game. I've spent many sleepless nights playing single player. Now I neeeeeed to play on-line with smb.

sorry for the.. you know .. ac just has that effect on you

I'm up for a game sometime, I'd prefer pbem as I don't trust my net connection. Probably best to have a couple other people for the game too.

ok, but i only have the original AC. Also I've never played anything on-line before and my connection sucks.

[Lazerus]

connection doesn't really matter for a PBEM game, you play 1 turn, save it, email the SAV file to the next player who in turn repeats the load,play,save, pass on process.

It's usually very slow (a year is prob the norm for 4 players), although if you just do a H2H (Head to Head) with another person whos active you can whizz through a few turns a day no problem and maybe complete it in a month or 2.

IP play is the sort of 'real time' game where you're both taking turns at the same time and thus need a fairly quick and stable connection for the updates occuring between the linked computers.

Actually out of those 3 - IP sounds the best. I mean - playing a single game per years is a bit too slow.

[Kataphraktoi]

you will have a hard time finding players, unfortunatly.

I'd be happy to play TCP/IP. and i know another person who is also interested. we're in the uk, and have very stable broadband connections.

well wanna have a game sometime? my connection ain't all that good but I'm able to play Doom on-line so i think it would work.

[Corvi #6]

sure, why not? ive sent you an email with my address and my icq. drop me a line sometime!

BTW, you DO know how to set up port-forwarding, dont you?
