Hello Harlequin; nice to see my name on your list. I probably had the most fun in MP during our couple of forays at Freeport 1. And that last adventure with the other players was fun, even if a complete disaster!
FYI, I found the number (which wasn't hard) for the company that hosted AC2, and left a message. Maybe we'll find out what happened; although I've got a feeling Matt or whomever may have read
this thread and called it the last straw.
In my message, I inquired about the possibility of characters -- if still saved somewhere -- being transferred to other servers.
Anyway it was really out of concern for the community; AC2 had some decent players, but it's hard to see past all the bad stuff sometimes. Possibly a good example of a few bad apples spoiling the bunch.
I'm going to subscribe to a MMORPG.
