Multi-player Game

Post by Vequ »

I'm not sure how frequent games are on the multiplayer (the CD-Required type), but I just recently figured it out, and was wondering if anyone actually played that part? If so, I'd like to have a partner watchin' my back. :)
You stare upon the perch,
The sight forces your somach's lurch.
The sight you see,
Is Death glaring back at thee.
You gave it a hum,
You let it run,
Now all you see,
Is the mirror that bleeds.

My brother in law came over for the weekend and we played the game over LAN the whole time. While the game isn't the exactly Multiplayer friendly (Somewhat lack of options) it is still fun once you learn how to do it.

As for online, I don't play that part, however i'll give Direct IP a try if you like.

Gunna fool around with it abit, try to figure all the options out (to start a MP game anyway). But, sure. If I figure it out, I would't mind company.

If you figure it out, lemme know. I'd like to MP too.

Complications

Two things have occured. One) I cannot join a game... period. Something about forwarding port to NAT device (?), and Two)Whenever I host a game, if I go into it, my screen goes black soon after I move, and then it closes on it's own. Any ideas?

The forwarding port to NAT device is where I gave up. lol You have to know which port the game uses, and then allow the port to be open (as opposed to closed or stealthed) and ensure that your router (NAT device) allows incoming and outgoing traffic through that port. Too much of a headache for me - I'm too used to Blizzard servers - which is why I said if you figure it out, lemme know. ;)

About the screen going black I have no idea.. unless the MP is buggy on its own?
