XDCUK.COM

Took mine to a mates house. Worked out that the server browser doesn’t actually work unless you cancel it. Had a few games and left (although I’ll begrudgingly admit that “Panama Canal” seemed like a really good little mp map).

Spent a good half hour on the phone on Saturday answering some pretty bizarre questions including (but not limited to)

• How can anyone be allowed to release an online game which doesn’t actually work 80% of the time?
• Why on some games does one side have twice as many players as others? Wouldn’t it be fairer if there were the same amount of people on each team?
• How come more experienced players get better guns/defibs/fancy scopes? Isn’t it stupid that new players are handicapped for being new?
• Whether it was considered cheating if she played as a medic on account of the fact that there seemed to be some unwritten rule that everyone had to play as a sniper.

But, despite all this I am assured by her that if you actually manage to get online, get in a squad and find people who will actually “try to help you instead of sitting on a hill disguised as bush” it is possible for the game to be pretty good.

So there you go. Who’d have thunk it. At least my copy will get some use.

hi spugs ,

it was good to see you on the hussars server , and back gaming again

right, this game is bloody fantastic when it works. All the issues are still there regarding the crappy net code and balance issues (although it feels more balanced than other BF games at release.

The unlock thing is stupid, the difference is palpable from the first few upgrades, but as it only took a couple of hours to unlock a healthy selection of guns I can live with that!

The maps are incredible, especially with destructive scenery, I knocked down a pylon on someone yesterday, didn't get the kill though! I have played with Ziggzagg a couple of times, Matt reckons his is unplayable due to lack of power, and Drop has added me to his friends list but I have et to see him on. For thosse of you that want to add me my username is =XDC=Wolf (to clarify, the =XDC= bit is part of my name and not a clan tag). Hope to see some more on, it is a fun game with lots of teamwork options yet to be fully utilised (snipers are a handy respawn point!)

arghh why does it cost me 10 quid more to buy on steam without a box!!!! muppets

SPUGS!! Its been over a year!

If Spugs has this, I'm getting it - dont give a shit about the rest of you!

I can't find the Hussar's server, any way of joining by IP?

see above eggy.....£200 and your in !!

i too though would'nt mind joinin in with spugs and drop on the pc it has to be said.....reminds me of good times !!

as far as i can find there is no way to join by ip

it does seem to disappear from the browser at times but all i can suggest is to keep refreshing

I'll be onboard too when the new machine arrives...

Awesome!!

In the filter search box just type hussars and refresh....thats how i found it anyway.

Best gamemode for this game is Hardcore, Its superb!

Love it

Found it! although my friends list seems to have been reset!

I caved! Bought it on Steam for £35! Agh! Oh well, hopefully this will be the new beggining for XDC... hopefully!

Fuck me its buddy! Took about 45 mins to get in to a game, but once in, it was pretty cool... will be on tomorrow night if people fancy a game

Woo
