How do you play Rebellion online?

[DarkScipio]

How do you play Rebellion online? Do you need just a few hours? Or longer? Do you play it in one piece or do you stop an meet again?

[Grand_Admiral_Thrawn]

You can either play the whole game, which does take a while depending on the skill of the players, or you can save it and pick up where you left off at a later date. The problem is, the only place to really play it is on the MSN zone, and htere are few if any players there. And playing there effectively eliminates the "puck up where you left off" option, unless you know who you are playing.

[DarkScipio]

I know what is possible. Sorry. I just wanted to know what YOU do.

[Grand_Admiral_Thrawn]

Oh. I usually play it either alone, or with a friend on a network. When I play like that, I don' usually use RebEd either.

[Admiral-Beef]

just out of curiosity, what type of network do you play on? i have a router, but i can never get it to work with any of the options givin in the game, if you could please go through how you set it up. Thanx

[Grand_Admiral_Thrawn]

The last time I played I was using an old hub, but I think even with a router it's one of the last two (most likely the second last) options. I'll take a look.

I am experementing with the in game M-player, and i think it wants to kill me for my stupidity (and lack of spelling and gramar)

 

I an't had no luck with that thar computer magiger yet

[Grand_Admiral_Thrawn]

In-game M-player? You mean single player? That thar what?

 

Sorry, just a little confused

[Unagi353]

Ok... You insert the disk and click "Play"

It takes you to the ####### where you can load a game or start a new one...

To the side there is a pic of a S-trooped hitting heads with a Reb-fleet officer, i click on it and it promps me to chose a type of game to host.

I chose TCP/IP and set up the galexy, but when i go to finish it (click on the ok button) it dosent let me.

Soon my rage will personify and attack the progamers

[Grand_Admiral_Thrawn]

Ah. If you want to play multiplayer, you're best to go to the MSN Zone, or use GameSpy Arcade. MSN Zone requires you to use thier software, go into the cahtroom launching area and from your game. From there it does the rest.

Thanks... have a mental cookie and some karma.

Mmmmmmm Karma cookie *drools*

[Cat0234]

I can't seem to find it on the zone, and gamespay won't let me play cause i've not got 'rebellion' installed.
