Any Interest in a Beta 8.1 Weekend or Two?

We can do a test game one day Masamune! I don't know if I can play now though since we doing Beta 8. I never could play good on Beta 5/8 due to connection and lag problems. I don't know what causes it. I can only play Beta 9 100% fine. I'll try again, but I got my doubts it will work for me

Well, hopefully the patch that was applied in 8.1 has dealt with whatever was causing the problems. I think Beta 9 was built up from 8.1, but I don't know that for sure.

I remember some games with you using Beta 5 ... you seemed to be fine on those days. But we'll have to test 8.1 and see. Do you have 8.1? Can you host? If the answer is yes to both, we can arrange to meet and test. I need to test my 8.1 also as I've never used it online for MP before.

I hadn't realized that ETW was so close to release. This probably isn't a good time.

Hiya Masa, I'm scared...but you know I'll play a few if needed. And I'm sure a few of us diehard VI players would join as we did in the past. We only stopped playin because everyone else did...hmm maybe you guys are the ones afraid.

btw Hiya Tori and welcome.

Heya King George, good good. Truthfully, I'm the one who's scared--haven't played in so long I don't even remember the basic controls, let alone how to group my units right or time anything prudently. Did Hik ever try this? I saw him in the foyer when I logged in last night but he was in game.

Anyway, not so sure this is gonna fly as it's so close to ETW time, but we'll see. Worth a try anyway. I hope you'll play cuz you wanna, not just cuz you're needed m8. I'll add you up top.

Hallo everyone

I tried logging onto multiplayer (gamespy or whatever it is

) and it worked. However there wasn't anyone on. Would it just be my timing? Or could it have something to do with my internet or the way I installed the mod? (10 to 1 I messed up

)

Hi Toriniku,

Given your location/time zone it's distinctly possible no one was on at the time. I was shocked when I logged in on Friday night and found about a dozen players in there--I was expecting an empty foyer.

I'll look for you here and in the village to see if you're around, and if I see you, I'll PM you and we can try meeting there to confirm. I'd also like to figure out what I need to do to be able to host. If either of us can host we can practice up some.

Colorful profile you have

. It inspired me to spruce mine up with a background/color scheme similar to the one I used at the village.
