Global server ? What''s going wrong?
So, I know Global Server was down a few days ago.
I bought the game recently, and the only way for me to play is to enter IPs (found on TLR and flserver.com). I cannot connect to global server, and I know many people can't. I read, on the microsoft Homepage, some issues on the use of directplay, concerning MP. Btw, I can play FL in MP, so that s not the problem.
I would like to see all servers (I really need a low ping server, and I am an european user).
So, does anybody have some clues about Global Server connection? Is it still down? Does the connection with Global Server need some different ports (different from MPs) to be opened by the ISP? (at least, it could allow me to check the avaliability of such port...)
oh, and I would like to thank all people around here on TLR, flserver.com, and the whole modders community for their great job to improve this game, which is exactly THE game I was seeking. Thanx also to players on Elite, E2, dementia and freelanceroupost.com servers : the main advantage about MP in FL, is not the leveling or whatever. It's interactivity with other people cool and friendly. Wandering around with a teammate and jump into a dogfight is definitly great. thx for the fun!
