Post here to arrange or discuss multiplayer games. Remember when planning a game to state the time the lobby will be open, the time the game will start and the time zone you are in and if you are going to play through Gamespy or direct IP address.

Just out of interest are we doing this via IP or GS?

If it is IP how does that work...

Lightbringer wrote:Alright, how does this sound? Can everyone make it to a Saturday afternoon , 2pm est game? I'd prefer sunday, but either weekend day is fine with me. My weekdays are taken by work. I'd like to try and do it in the afternoon so we can include European players. I've played games where I went to bed at 7pm and woke up to play at midnight...but it sucked, so I'll try not to ask them to do that.

As for AI presence and map size, how does something close to double the number of players sound? So if we have 5 players...we pick a map with 9-12 regions. Is that amenable for you Rhjyyz? I'm not too picky about it...but I would like some AI. And yes this will be a 1/2 speed realtime game in case anyone was unaware. Pause breaks once or twice an hour if someone feels a need.
Also how hard do we want to set it? I'm still mainly playing on normal...but also feeling ready to start on hard once my world campaign is through.
Sounds good. This is next weekened right?

I'm still up for it. I've got a helluva weekend though, so it would have to be targeted for the weekend of the 19-20th to start. We'll have to figure out some sort of more universally functional connection as well.

Thoughts?

Anyone else still interested?

GS be the best bet for a connection. Still will have trouble though. Course through IP u still will have trouble. And I want a game this weekend even if its with just one other person. :D I'm just twitching to use my new tricks on another person since I have seen it works on the Ai too easily. I want another brain to pit aganist.

So that'd be 7pm PST for me. Sounds good. Pick any balanced 1v1 map.

Eh, I can't host. I'm using a wireless card and tapping into my neighbors unsecured network. I don't know the password or account name for his router, so I can't get any online games to host.
