[tk[as]]

[Szwagier]

wrong gateway, u need find "global" server

so now we are going split to third server? xd

[shesycompany]

leave and come back and see if it says global..i think we all meet at classic games right now? im not sure

[tk[as]]

these are the only options it gives me

[Szwagier]

there are 2 batch files in w2 gog folder use directplay

Ok so can someone fill me in. WTF is gog war2?

[tk[as]]

just a new server. with the potential to have a MUCH larger community.

similar to zone in the sense that zone hosted multiple games.

[tk[as]]

if they do their fking job.. it's not unrealistic to imagine there could be hundreds (if not thousands) or users logged on at any given time playing war2

[~ToRa~]

Hopefully they release some patches in the coming weeks.

Let's sum up:
Gog server requires cd key they didn't send although I bought their game.
You need to forward ports to be able to even join game.
At this moment it is hardly possible to play at Gog server.

Research how you have to find your cd key on GoG. They provided you one, you have to go to library. Go to warcraft 2, and go into more/serial keys

I've read all 6 pages of this thread and still don't fully understand. I need to buy the game all over again?( haven't had the disc and key since ru came out)

[tk[as]]

so i did get on. had to uninstall .ru and re-install gog.

yes. you pay $10 for war2. then join their server... as far as i can tell once you get all of that figured out, the text you type in the lobby is the only really fucking shitty thing.. it gets all fucked up when you're trying to type.
