help getting on multiplayer

**kedong** · 08-14-2007, 09:09

ok.. i bought MTW gold edition (which includes VI) a couple weeks ago and have been playing by my self until just a few days ago when i decided i wanna try the Multiplayer. I go on , login to game spy and found that no one was there so i decided to wonder why. When i was browsing the web i found out that i need to install v2.01 patch for VI. I downloaded it to my computer opened and it said that i don't have VI installed. I was surprised because i know for a fact that i have VI due to the fact that I'm able to play the viking era. What i want to know is have anyone ever had this problem? and if so then how do i fix it?

Thx

Ah yeah just saw you in lobby and could see your hosted game too. Of course these days there are not that many players on the VI server.

I was on MSN most of the afternoon and evening last Saturday (and playing with the SW gang on VI Sunday afternoon--your evening, I believe). I saw you on on Saturday and messaged you fairly early, but didn't get a response until late in the day when I was AFK. When I returned, you were offline. I think we have a time zone challenge, as I'm the East USA and I believe you are in Europe or UK. By the time I get home in the evening it's rather late there. I've still been checking my MSN though. If we can't connect during the work week this week I'll look for you again on Saturday.
