robmypro 10 Posted November 12, 2011 Hey guys i have had A2 for a year or so but got into iRacing and it took me a while to get back to this. I just went out and took advantage of the Steam sale, so i now have OA, BAF and A2. I want to get a buddy into it too, so we can co-op together. Question about A2 regarding this. The way i see it there are multiple things we would like to do with A2. 1. Play co-op Campaigns Can this be done on a dedicated server? I have one ready but read some posts about it and wasn't promising. 2. Play co-op missions Can this be done on a dedicated server? 3. Force on force Can we host player vs player on dedicated servers? Thanks guys! Rob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maddogx 13 Posted November 12, 2011 1. Play co-op CampaignsCan this be done on a dedicated server? I have one ready but read some posts about it and wasn't promising. Nope. The campaign can only be hosted locally. I recommend either waiting for the 1.60 patch or both of you grabbing the latest beta, since MP is much improved over stock 1.59. 2. Play co-op missionsCan this be done on a dedicated server? Yes, absolutely. 3. Force on forceCan we host player vs player on dedicated servers? Again, yes. And I can only repeat: if you want to play multiplayer, use the latest beta or wait for 1.60, which should be out soon. (Hopefully next week.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robmypro 10 Posted November 12, 2011 Hey thanks for the quick reply. Okay we will wait for 1.60. Regarding campaigns, are they any good or would we be better off with missions anyways? Maybe my thought about the campaign being where it is at is wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe my thought about the campaign being where it is at is wrong. It's really a matter of taste. Some people like the campaigns, some don't. I would say try them out and see for yourselves. :) Especially the PMC campaign is designed for two player COOP and is very action-oriented, so if that's your cup of tea, I'd say give it a try.

robmypro 10 Posted November 12, 2011 Sounds good! Thank you. ---------- Post added at 03:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:26 PM ---------- Quick question about beta patches. I installed A2 from disc, but OA and BAF are from steam. It seems to all work, but will i face any challenges applying the 1.60 beta patch? Also how does this work with A2 and the 1.10 version i have? Does this mean MP enhancements only exist with the OA version? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
