Especially if you are on a 56k dial up connection. PPS, Any other games you or your mate want you will have to buy. Don't trust warez sites as they are all rubbishy ad bombing, spyware infested sites, whos links lead you to more of the same. Trust me, I know. Support the gaming industry and buy the original of the games you really like. (new or secondhand, Trademe is great.) |

| 150228 | 2003-06-07 11:03:00 | Maybe the game is free but use of the server costs... wouldnt that be a neat trick ;) Iain |

Yeah,i jumped on a couple Jetstream servers earlier,and was then immediatly booted off.Looking at the lobby it seemed that all the servers were running a modem filter(Automaticly boots modem users). Poor me. Seemed to be at least 100 servers when i checked,doubt ill actually get to play the game now though. Did you hit "refresh servers'? Maybe you have a firewall blocking the game? |

I downloaded and played ok on jetstart although I had no idea what I was doing so I baled. There were a few setup options like connection choices and profiles that you had to set up first before connecting. I didnt see a single player option so might have to read the instructions first. Game looked good though. Thanks metla for the link. sam m |

| 150232 | 2003-06-07 14:59:00 | Some of the servers are running Punk Buster (anti cheat program) which you have to enable in the online server browser screen before joining a game. You only have to do this once. There are a few NZ servers , about 5 I think.Hit "get new list" and "refresh" to get an up to date list of game servers. Hit the word "PING" in the ingame server browser to sort the games by their latency(ping) lower is better. It is a multi player only game. I have seen 2 or 3 xtra severs and 2 jetstream servers. it's a great world we live in when awsome games like this can be played for and downloaded for free. it plays OK on a dialup to depending on how good your dialup connection is. Try joining games with less than 20 players if you are only on a 56k connection. Now if I can just get my Americas Army game to log on to the NZ Inspirenet server I could be playing another great game for free. |

| 150233 | 2003-06-08 08:15:00 | the ocnz people (forums.overclockers.co.nz) have been bugging Inspire about the AA server too. It seems to be unable to autheticate people or something. b a good idea to get it running. | Dylan (800) | ||
