Silly question from a newbie
I'm interested in playing multiplayer, but my question is how? I'm just looking to play in a random game with random people. I try to log onto one of the servers via the Internet option, but no one else appears in the room I'm in. Is that because no one's on, or am I doing something wrong? I'm sorry for being so vague, but I'm use to logging into the MS Zone and being able to find games via a huge player base (Age of Empires II or Asheron's Call). Thanks for any input.

Hey, you only waited 5 mins! LOL

You need to build up an icq db of all the players here if you want to play in good games with dedicated people. Just click on posters profiles and add their icq number to your list. Then you'll see who's online when you are, and maybe rustle up a game

Tho you will get a better game in my oppinion here, you should be able to get a game over at the zone easily enough. If you played at the zone with those other games it really should be no problem. But there is still a big problem with people quiting all of a sudden with no explination there.

In adition to Deity's suggestion, you might post ahead of time for a certain day and time including time zone and. I have seen posts like "game tonight at such and such time" and so forth.

There is a nice long list of players' ICQ #'s in a thread right in this forum also.
