O P T i C S 0 Posted June 17, 2004 XWIS - Ra2 Server & Yuris Revenge Servers http://www.strike-team.net/ http://www.xwis.net Olaf Van der Spek has developed new servers for Red Alert 2 and Yuris Revenge. These servers are identical to the normal Ra2 and YR servers that you connect to via WOL. The only differences are that they have CHAT ENABLED. and do not sit on the Westwood servers. Ranks and badges are enabled, QuickMatch is improved and cheaters can (and will) be banned. These servers (together with the XCL ladder) have been created to keep legacy games such as Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge going for a long time to come. The XCL ladder and XWIS servers mean that Ra2 and YR fans can continue to enjoy the online experience with a fully supported ladder and servers. The severs are up and running. http://www.strike-team.net/ http://www.xwis.net Share this post Link to post

Mudcrutch 0 Posted November 7, 2004 couple questions: --- is this server more reliable, ie: games will actually connect to other people, etc.? --- it says nicks are limited to 3 per serial. no big deal but does that mean my serial is transmitted to you guys? --- can anyone here not related to that server/group of people confirm its usuability and that people are actually on? thanks....

Doctor Destiny 40 Posted November 7, 2004 --- is this server more reliable, ie: games will actually connect to other people, etc.? Yes. --- it says nicks are limited to 3 per serial. no big deal but does that mean my serial is transmitted to you guys? No. --- can anyone here not related to that server/group of people confirm its usuability and that people are actually on? It's fine but you have to be when others are on. It's not full of cheaters/hackers so there's far fewer. Share this post Link to post
Mudcrutch 0 Posted December 19, 2004 thanks for the info... me and some friends play yuris regularly so we will probably try this out after xmas break... Share this post Link to post

chickendippers 1 Posted February 19, 2005 Not at the moment, but they may consider implementing it when there is enough demand. So go play on XWIS and you may well be able to1 Share this post Link to post
Mudcrutch 0 Posted March 5, 2005 well i must say that sadly, only when the EA servers are down are a decent # of people on XWIS. its too bad really because its a great server but atm it looks like a good backup.. :cry: Share this post Link to post
Rider 0 Posted March 8, 2005 So technically you could play with a nonexistent serial? wouldn't that be a problem? Share this post Link to post
chickendippers 1 Posted March 8, 2005 I'm not sure what kind of serial validation they have, but I think the idea is that they can ban your code to stop you from playing if you cheat. They definately can't see your serial number. Share this post Link to post
Rider 0 Posted March 9, 2005 I just played 1 quickmatch, and now I can't login anymore. RA2 keeps telling me that the login is already used. Now I can't play anymore! Any idea what's up? ...oh and playing the game at 640x480 sucks! Share this post Link to post
