Apollo 0 Posted March 13, 2005 Trobably you just behind a firewall that restricts the port the game uses for connection. Just type in the Ip adress of the firewall/router and open the ports (ask the game forum for appropiate port to open and manufaturer site or manual for the IP adress.(granted that you have admin rights.

Bordoy 0 Posted March 13, 2005 i think i'll join this, sounds good. Do i need to patch game staight after i've installed it? Or is the .exe already patched? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CAPAIRMAN 0 Posted March 14, 2005 I christened my new destroyer the BIS_DanColeman, after my grandfather (merchant marines ww2) Also, I have seen forum member msspencer in battle, and is not to be taken lightly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MSpencer 0 Posted March 14, 2005 Eh yes I am. I was trying to figure out the talk key (That's why you saw me going in circles for the better part of three minutes ) to respond to your comment about a good shot. Been trying to get in on one of those big destroyer battles, I didn't have six hours to waste for everyone to green up though. Kind of reminds me of right before a CTI game when you have that one person who always goes AFK. I figure I'll leave the little bay when I get enough for a Fletcher class. I renamed my destroyer to the BIS_Thebes as per the designated prefix protocol. Quote[/b] ]Yes it's a weird community ,ask something and they alsmost answer: read the forum you NOOBlet ,well something like that ,and the forum itself is quite messy to ,the search function there aint no high flyer. I'd have to agree. The forum is a wasteland, it took me an hour to figure out torpedoes until I came across a relatively good tutorial (Let me tell you, my deck guns are soooo much more effective than those torpedoes. I've sunk a bunch of ships with deck guns, none with torpedoes), and still, it was skimpy on information and abbreviated. The manual is practically nonexistant (See Star Wars Galaxies, that MMO comes with a 700000 page manual), but I do appreciate the fact that no money changes hands to play this wonderful game. I can forgive the NF team for not producing a manual, but give me a break, they can do better than that! It actually almost turned me off from the game, because I couldn't figure out half of the interface and the rest was overly cryptic. Apparently we're supposed to be innately gifted with the ability to decipher CLS, RCT, and PVNTSTAMT under the avatars of our seamen. Come on, at least some comparitively cryptic documentation would help. EDIT: eek! typo! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
