Haken Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 (edited) Anyone interested in playing it online against (or with) each other? It would be great if we could create two teams and rumble. We've talked about this before and exams have given me the urge to play all kinds of games again. There should be enough people with AoE2 (possibly expansion too) here. We should be able find a suitable hour too. But first things first, who's up? Edited June 21, 2006 by Haken (see edit history) Link to comment
Ide Jima Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Sounds like great fun. I've got AOEII and the expansion, just lacking experience of internet multiplayers. I must admit I've never played games across the interned apart from when I went to Germany 2 years ago. Is it simple to set up? Link to comment
Haken Posted June 21, 2006 Author Share Posted June 21, 2006 (edited) Well... I've been trying to set up a game with someone for the last couple of hours, so... But with this gamespy thing, I think it get's easier. When you have started AoE, go to the Zone and follow instructions. If everything works out, you'll have a GameSpy Arcade account and we can find each other on it. edit: my nickname there is HakenRider. Edited June 21, 2006 by Haken (see edit history) Link to comment
Suverina Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 (edited) SIGN ME UP!!!!!!!!!!!! No internet experience, though LAN experience. Be prepared that I'm not a "super" good player, Average skill or something I guess. Edited June 21, 2006 by Suverina (see edit history) Link to comment
Ide Jima Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I'll give it a go at the weekend, I have American Conquest installed right now, and my sister nicked my copy of AOEII. I'll have it by the weekend. Link to comment
Suverina Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 er... I have american conquest but I haven't played it much because I find it hard and unbalanced... Do you play it alot? Link to comment
Haken Posted June 21, 2006 Author Share Posted June 21, 2006 Suverina: follow the (attempt at) instructions in my second post. Link to comment
Ide Jima Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 ^ ^ I do, but not for any great amount of time, I agree that it is far too 'war' orientated. Link to comment
Rennd Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 (edited) Aaah.. i would love to play online... again like my friend suv , im not very good, but it would be a laugh i suppose... One question, im a little confused as to how to sign up, i been to the zone, and created a name, but it doesn't really work still... Edited June 21, 2006 by Rennd (see edit history) Link to comment
Suverina Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 please respond to my pm, a no is better than not answering. I'm chatting with haken right now, I think we will make another go tomorrow.. I'll let him respond first... Link to comment
Damak Var Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I am game for Rome Total War, I will try to look for my old AOE 2 disk. Played that game for hours. Link to comment
Haken Posted June 21, 2006 Author Share Posted June 21, 2006 (edited) I'm chatting with haken right now, I think we will make another go tomorrow.. I'll let him respond first... Don't know, maybe I just keep sitting here in my corner, crying softly. Yeah, it didn't work out well. Blah technical problems, blah GameSpy, blah connection failure.

Suverina Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Haken, are you sure we have the same versions? - That might be the problem? Link to comment
Suverina Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 I think i have that aswell, but where do I check it? Link to comment
Haken Posted June 22, 2006 Author Share Posted June 22, 2006 (edited) I saw it on GameSpy or something. 2.0 is the original version. In the meantime I have downloaded 2.0a, it suppose to help with multiplayer. http://www.megagames.com/news/html/patches...update20a.shtml edit: and for the expansion too: http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/Age_o...tch/994409197/1 Edited June 22, 2006 by Haken (see edit history) Link to comment
Accra Imperiale Dichia Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Oh hey don't leave me out. AoE2 is great, and I would love to destroy your litle cvilizations with all those cataphracts. jk... but set a time and I will play (if I'm invitied). Link to comment
Haken Posted June 23, 2006 Author Share Posted June 23, 2006 Well... If someone would know a way to play this in multiplayer... The zone, with which I could work, has been cancelled a few weeks ago and replaced by crappy GameSpy ("unable to connect"). I also tested playing with IP adresses, with no succes. Link to comment
Suverina Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 I know what didn't work Haken! I have 2.0b when directly installed. So Ide? Up for a game next weekend? Link to comment
Corsimenia Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 This is a great game. Haven't played it in forever, and never online... not even sure where my disk is. Link to comment
Haruspex Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 I think I have the disk somewhere..Time for the attic rumage fest. Link to comment
Fleet Admiral Connor Grey Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Hmm, I love this game, but unfortunately I left it home and did not install it on my laptop. maybe sometime in the future.... Link to comment
Beautancus Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 (edited) Everyone should get the new expansion for Civ 4, called Beyond the Sword. Then we could really rock, and avoid any nasty multiplayer issues. (But coincedentally, I think my army of Teutonic Knights would march over anything you guys could throw at me.) Edited September 6, 2007 by Beautancus (see edit history) Link to comment
Tagmatium Rules Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 My crappy old PC could hardly run that. And the wretched thing probably would find an issue with Age of Empires 2 as well. Link to comment
