I was thinking of taking my old Joystick out of mothballs. Lag back in the dialup days kept me from playing so much. Anyone want to give this a go? :)

I've seen that problem DJ, but I've also played completely lag-free games over the internet, so I'd advice that you try again. Once, when I was playing over the zone, we got that problem on the first game, but on the second game (with exactly the same guys) it went fine...

Ok I tried to play a game with sleepyd last night... The game says his ping was 104, but his connection quality was about 60%. This caused allll manner of lag in the game. When someone is laggin the whole game halts and theres a message saying its trying to send to someone. I think this was meant to be played on a LAN... :/

Just installed X-Wing Alliance. :)
I would be great to have class where we could fly and shoot each others and play missions together.
Luke was jedi and fighter pilot. He was flying X-Wing in Episode 4 and destroyed Death Star.
We are jedis, but not fighter pilots. :( We need to correct that.

Bah! Buy X-wing Alliance, it's a classic of classics (and a good game too). BF1942 can wait.

Thanks to sleepyd's help we've tracked down what we think are the ports an XWA server runs on for those with NAT boxes and firewalls like myself. I'll test this later tonight, but I think XWA runs on TCP port 2300 and UDP port 2350.

Well, I just wish we had a class on this. Like having a server for playing multi on other SW based games. Remember, Jedi don't only fight. They learn to fly fighter to:D

They're sweet, but pretty slow if you have full recharge on the shields.

Otana is cool, yeah.... if u got the time its always fun to jump away - charge shields and then get back to fighting :)

otherwise I like the Y-Wing for its high accuracy lasers and lots of torps....
old and hard to handle but very efficent
