Just wondering.... FS2 doesn't seem to like my PXO account at the moment, actually :(, but FS1 logs in ok.  Unfortunately, there's nothing_and_nobody online.

But I'd like to give this MP stuff a shot, especially as i managed to get Serious Sam running ok last night over a 56k modem.  Relatively lagless in co-op, depending on the number of players, so it was decent fun.

So does anyone still play Fs1 online then?

I've never played online, and I would, but I just reinstalled fs1, and the graphics are screwy.

Bit of a disaster, to be honest... kept on getting chucked out of games :( inlcuding just after I'd taken out a Vasudan cruiser (and been just about killed by the balst)

Bah.  Maybe Fs2 will be a bit better, the netcode miught be faster or summat.

Playing FS2 online is so much better than single play,in my opinion.

I like singeplayer. You can't MOD multi-player. That's why I don't like it much.

I used to be on PXO every day for a short time - but I got my ass kicked, and lost my sign-up info, so I stopped. :)

Given that FS1 (I think) was successful and FS2 wasnt. Which one has the biggest multiplayer community?

Hades, whats wrong with your graphics for FS1?

The engines are screwy, and the Laser garphics suck. All of the Interface is perfect. The ML-16 Looks really weird, the nebulas are all blocky, and the engines are just scary. I tryed updating it. it doesn't matter. I use fs2 anyway.

yeah, but try run FS1 on a Voodoo board, and you will note the difference. especially the "blockyness" dissapears.

FS1 was made when voodoo ruled. oh sweet memories.

You can. You just need more friends and a LAN.

hmmm.... i play FS1 multi quite a bit
 im logged in under "Fsnuke" (I know Thorn's on there cause I just saw him today ;) )

the FS1 online community is quite active.... though it won't be once school starts up again
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

 
I used to be an old FS1 Online player.  But then summer came and the community dried up.  Personally, I prefer FS1 over FS2 simply because hornets\tornz don't work right in FS2.

That's why you load out Rocks and Temps for TvT, harps and trebs for coop

 
I've never played Freespace online. I've always wanted to. Before I had a firewall that wouldn't allow me to play online. Now I don't have the Internet. Such is fate.
