XWIS or...?

[TheBlackOut 7]

Do you think C&C 3 should be hosted through XWIS or what they did with Generals/ZeroHour?

[Luk3us 63]

I would imagine EA would do it.

Alot of money went into transferring themultiplayer server load over to XWIS. It depends on so many factors it's unreal. So really it boils down to whether or not DonCarlo would be prepared to accept the huge server load, EA give them the funds for these servers, and whether or not EA will actually do it.

 

EA have a huge corporate contract with Gamespy. It'll be something they'll consider I'd imagine. But I'd prefer the Renegade Method where by you can either choose Gamespy or XWIS to play on.

Generals and Zero Hour are hosted on Gamespy, and it ain't bad... But yah, I don't like Gamespy much...

Everyone hates GameSpy and I'd say all online multiplayer for C&C3 will be handled via GameSpy.

[Alphabear 11]

I know generals is hosted by gamespy and i hate it.

[Luk3us 63]

Meh, it'll all work out.

I very rarely play RTSs online, so Im not too concerned.

[Inferno 22]

Why does everyone hate Gamespy? It works fine for me, I need only one program for all multiplayer stuff.

 

And Luke's right, it will all turn out ok. Ever seen a RTS with not/bad-working multiplayer (except for the classics) ?

[TheBlackOut 7]

Because there are so many ads and problems with it. I was like "sweet, play a game of RA1 over gamespy! *click.. click... start up Red Al-------- POP UP.... AD.... SPAM!111... GIMME CReDIT CARD # AD LOL....*

Age of Empires III. Months after release, online games are still prone to frequent disconnects, crashes, mismatches and the like

[Luk3us 63]

OK, then, any other games?

Well everything TheSovietBlackOut said plus its spyware. I used to have it installed for Renegade when I couldn't access WOL through my old ISP, but its no longer installed now but for some reason Spybot picks up some registry entry related GameSpy every damn time.
