WE/MI server/chatroom is still offline.

we had similar troubles with STW,
do we truly expect any better with MTW?

Last time there was an extended drop like this i emailed CA and EA and both blamed the other,
so could someone who DOES know who 'runs' the server please post the email addy here so we can all contact them.
thanks

(the server was down when i tried to log on approximately 2am sunday GMT, is now 11pm monday GMT)
but in my time zone it's 8am tuesady, for me this is day 3.

You need to send e-mail to Harry who controls the mighty server we use....the problem he has is that the string between the '2 tin cans' is often snapped due to the pressure of the masses of players.

Could you imagine quake etc..with their 100s of thousands of players....using Harry and his tin cans!

It is a nice advert for MTW...but then again EA gone..Activision on..will they have more respect for the cash paying folk who pay there wages?..shame Ubi soft didnt have it..although they have a new patch weekly..they do offer a great connection...Ghost Recon for example...using my lowly 56k I only experienced lag once...and never dropped.

past caring....BTW MTW Demo----hmmmmm they had....archers.shock....spearmen..wow.cavalry...wow wow wow...and some rock throwing things that dont move..but their crew is funky cos they join the battle...damn excited...I nearly blinked...*snooze*

Rock throwing things? Trebuchet maybe?

I just wanna get the demo, but grrrrrrrr unfportunately living here means that the nearest "city" is miles away Hull(in Yukshire and I aint going there) or Lincoln. I can expect copies of the mag to arrive within the next 3 weeks.... ahhh I can't wait!

As for the server.....Activision are unknown to me, I played Battlezone II online a few times ... well ... it seemed alright for my 56k. Also, GameSpy will have a hand in it too I should think.

infact wouldnt it be nice if perhaps the news page they have was actually used instead of holding a message from the 16th July 2001..
