I have a friend who is intrested in freelancer and joing me in fighting for irish pride as a Molly but he lives in the canadian boons so he can only get dial up with out paying thousands for a satilite hook up. Do any you have experience with how well FL and discovery function over a dial up connection? Is it worth trying at all?

Thanks

Well... My friend had dial-up a while ago... He could go almost anywhere and actually could fight.... Except in Kusari.

But that's before all the new players and such.

I am British/Canadian... Not my fault I live in Quebec:P

Now back on Topic...


Playing on a Dialup connection is possible, just make sure you re dial it before going in the game, as it tends to go slower with time.

*Cough* I live in Utah... 6'1 FTW!

Back on Topic: Well when it comes to dialup, you should just stick to trading and whatnot or fight people with great internet connections because that is the only way you're gonna be able to do anything. And there are many ways of RPing without fighting and so on...

I knew a guy once, who could play most games he had on a dial-up connection. It does work but rememebr, you are bound to get SOME extra lag from having it.

HEY! I am Canadian too! So Is Firebird! and Captain Purge All! we are more numerous then you think!

Yeah because you guys have nothing else to do...

"Hey mate."

"What's up, eh?"

Nothing, eh, yo, eh?

Let's go post on Discovery, eh?

OK, eh?

Get my point?

:tease:


I am a long-absent Supreme Commander, Executive Commander, Grand Admiral, Fleet Admiral, and Captain in the mighty Hellfire Legion. I have returned, and am on an urgent mission from Drake Thastus to return the Legion to its former glory, and to claim the galaxy for its own. Only then will I be able to rest.

I have heard that satellite connections have a natural lag built in so game playing is not their forte'. Can any one here confirm or deny this ? Any one here with a satellite connection ?
