Well I hope you mean multiplay. And by active, no. There are a few regulars I think, but more or less, I heard it's dead.

I occasionally take a peek at what's going on... haven't been on multi much lately but I have been doing some of the user-made single campaigns, which are loads of fun anyways. :D

Ooh, that's right... there's a MULTIPLAYER mode... I'll have to try that. :nervous:

Is anyone up for a game right now? I'll host...

I once played on PXO and got shafted.....maybe because I'm on a 56k in the UK.....

@PXO every Fri and/or Sat night.
Yep, the activity has been decreasing slowly, but it usually isn't too hard to catch a game at those times.

I tried to register the PXO, but 'TopAce' already exists, and I do not want to change my name.:ick

You can register on PXO with whatever name you want. It's your pilot name in the barracks that shows up in the game. :nod:

I had a bunch of people on PXO kick me just because I forgot to rename the FSPort VP, kind of killed off my desire to use multiplayer.

I had that done to me when I had Derelict installed. Despite my trying to explain they just booted me.

I think there's a line between the PXOers and the HLPers. There seem to be a lot of PXO players who don't know that FS mods/campaigns even exist!

on the VBB they said to do a double install so you could mod and Multiplayer, but even then few people had 40Gig Hd's...

Yeah but that is rather poor advice. I followed that once myself but soon found that renaming data directories and .vp files was almost as simple and much less wasteful.
