No hosted games?

Recommended Posts

Went over visiting to my friends house, where he had broadband set-up. Thought we'll give OFP a try. To my astonishment NO-ONE was online. What is this? Why the sudden emptyness?

I was wondering where the players could be. What software do most OFP gamers use when they conect to a game?

We tried connecting to a game through OFP but nothing showed up (which is odd.)

After a 30 min wait, we got onto a team game...which ended in disaster, where a team mate ran over another, but did not know since we were all lagging badly. In the end the server was gone and OFP crashed sad_o.gif

Running on GOTY version, so its 1.94...but the odd thing is that Gamespy Arcade downloaded a update, and when we looked at the version on the menu screen it said 1.96 crazy_o.gif

I'm certain it should have been 1.94 but is said 1.96! I told my mate to do a fresh install. Perhaps everything would work correctly then. Anyway, how many people do you think use Gamespy Arcade?

Okay, everything fixed. Re-install did everything, and now we can see the games in the built in browser.

Woopee!

Straight into a "Capture the town" game, went into the M1-17, and some daft bugger on out team shot us down.

Argh!

Need more input...

Which version do you have? Goty patched to v1.94? Maybe the server was locked? Did you select a server without password which is running a compatible version? 1.92-1.94 can play together, 1.85-1.91 can play together, but they can't mix.

I believe there is a trial version that allows you to find servers for free.
