oldmanfunk 0 Report post Posted January 18, 2004 Hi, I was just wondering does AR2 support off-line skirmishes? I dont play C&C games online, and was considering buying RA2... oldmanfunk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tycoon-Master 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2004 I was wondering, does AR2 support missions for the teams, and is on-line play possible??? ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chrono 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2004 Online play on WOL or XWIS for up to 8 players is supported. You cannot play the original RA2 missions using AR2. A Nemesis campaign custom made for AR2 is being worked on. It will eventually be released. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tycoon-Master 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2004 Oh ok, because when i tried online play and nemises missions (to try and test the ones that were there) i could play online because it said i need the proper version off of westwood.com and the mission was unreadable. but i'm sure the mission problems will obveriously befix in the final 5.0 version of AR2.

Chrono 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2004 You can only play online with another person with the same version of AR2 installed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tycoon-Master 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2004 Oh cool but thats only in version 5.0, right :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chrono 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2004 No, you can play online with 4.0 too, as long as your opponent also has AR2 4.0 installed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tycoon-Master 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2004 Oh ok but thats only in version 5.0 its seems not to work in 4.0 :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tycoon-Master 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2004 Oh yeah one more thing there isn't a release date for the fina 5.0 version is there (just wanted to make sure) :( sorry to be a bother Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chrono 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2004 There is no official date yet, but expect it to be released by around April to May, to be realistic. We may give up early preview copies by the end of this month through a contest tmapm is still planning though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vinifera7 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2004 Not sure if this was cleared up. You CAN play online with 4.0. I have done it many times before. You do NOT have to wait until version 5.0 to play online. The only trick is that to play 4.0 online the person that you want to play with has to have the exact save version (4.0) AND the exact same version of YR. Try auto updating YR again if you think you didn't get all the patches. Also, make sure you take out any other mod files from your RA2 directory that may have been in there before you installed AR2.

tmapm 0 Report post Posted February 5, 2004 Don't double post within a 12 hour period, edit your post. He means he always has AR2 enabled so when he wants to play it he can play it without having to enable it. It is ready to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the_kid 0 Report post Posted February 6, 2004 yeah, we got some n00bs on our hands here... but thats ok, its good to see new people in the community, we were all there once. I'll try to explain this in a perspecive in which you can understand. through WOL and XWISC you play with other people on the internet. This requires all people that are playing together to have the same game, version, ect. so that people aren't playing with different versions or cheats. however playing with mods is in fact possible. But all the players that are going to play MUST have the exact same version you do, if one file is different it WILL NOT work. So if you have a friend that wants to play YR v1.0 with you and you have v1.001 then it will not work (although it won't let him join until he patches, to help prevent these kinds of errors) It is the same with mods, if say I have AR2 v4.0 installed on my YR and you have AR2 v3.0, and we try to play it will NOT because we have different versions. But if we both have AR2 V4.0 we can play against each other, although we must both have it activated, and not have other mods activated at the same time (AR2 prolly wouldn't work with another mod installed anyway) So you don't need AR2 v5.0 (which isn't out yet as you all know) to play onine you can do so with AR2 v4.0 if you do things correctly... I've tryed to play AR2 v4.0 online before, but couldn't get anyone to activate it the lazy bastards... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
