    Who would have the best connection to host the game? I've got 2meg, and dont mind trying to host it, but i dont know if that would hold up 16 players decently...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,285 ✭✭✭TheHairyFairy


    8mb down and 468k up.

    You will need a better upload than 400k.. Get someone on IBB's 3meg up and down..


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Arts Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 30,012 CMod ✭✭✭✭johnny_ultimate


    I'll play, but definitely not hosting! Oh no... Really need to upgrade the old modem at this point!


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,276 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    Hmm, i'm on IBB with 2meg down...so i have 2meg up possibly?

    Also the way to do this is to create a game with 15 private slots, then invite everyone individually. This means we all need to know and have registered each others gamer tags.

    Also vote that rather than attempt to "win" tonight we try and create utter and complete mayhem instead.

    i'm in, Johnny IRE gamertag

  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 4,569 Mod ✭✭✭✭Ivan


    Need someone to start invites, I think... Seems there are just a bunch of people in random games that are locked.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 900 ✭✭✭cosgrove80


    I'll sign up as cannon fodder

    Gamertag: Mr Dec


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,080 ✭✭✭✭Tusky


    Who has a good connection ? Host it and then we will post gamertags and you can invite.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,080 ✭✭✭✭Tusky


    Blah, if noone replies in the next 5 mins I'll host but my connection aint the best. If someone has a good connection, please say.

    If you want to play, exit your game and post gamertag.

    Just finished the intro... might blast into multiplayer also.

    Just don't expect much of a challenge.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,472 ✭✭✭AdMMM


    Off to do a project now.

    Some great moments there, I think once we figure out what the game modes are they could be better lol!

    Cheers for the games.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,080 ✭✭✭✭Tusky


    Hey guys, every time I try and host it says 'Disconnecting from game session. Returning to single player'. Dunno whats wrong. May have to leave it till tomorrow until we figure it out.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,285 ✭✭✭Smellyirishman


    Yeah, some good games.

    Rocket Arena was funny as **** :pac:.

    I tried inviting everyone on my friends list at some point. Tusky, I invited your old account I think (Tmoneh, or is that Tman or something?).


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Arts Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 30,012 CMod ✭✭✭✭johnny_ultimate


    Good game with whoever made it on :pac:
    One for All (or Cops n robbers?) was hilarious. At one point there were three cops swimming after one robber after leaping off a huge bridge. It was brilliant. I think this is going to be a great multiplayer game for a while yet.

    And DM with rockets only = win.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,285 ✭✭✭TheHairyFairy


    Great fun there lads. Somewhat steep learning curve but everyone picked it up quickly. To create a private game do the following :

    Create a game yourself and make all slots private. Then press the "xbox dashboard X button" and then go to friends and invite them into the game. You may also be able to invite them via the mobile phone too.

    MP was just mayhem, with Cops N Crooks being the the best mode tonight. Myself and glamdring.ie where on the bridge and nearly at the vehicle. Then we noticed a cop car with 2 of the others blocking our way and coming to us. All we could do was jump off the bridge into the water, cue a swimming race :p.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,188 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Yeah. no invites to MP games here.

    Pretty steep learning curve alright all the same.

    But looking forward to a few MP games alright.

    yea was me invite me please


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,285 ✭✭✭Smellyirishman


    I don't know who killed me when I was heading up to meet you lads on the bridge, but I was just about to join the swimming race from one of the beaches when the boss got killed. I'm definitly a fan of Cops 'n' Crooks (The different between All for One and One for All is whether or not you respawn, AFAICT), the turf war one was pretty good too.

    I got two lads jammed nicely between a shop and a pillar in the team car jack mode, knocked 'em both off and handed in the car .... for €100 :(.

    Someone else blew me off my motorbike as I was ripping up towards him too, that was impressive.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,285 ✭✭✭TheHairyFairy


    Sorry if we missed anyone out. I'm "Sheebeg Gamer" so add me and whenever there are more games I'll invite. Had 9 on playing tonight with no slowdown or lag whatsoever so my connection is well up to it.
