Eh, the people i heard of that had problems with this, it wasnt due to piracy, they all had legitimate copies.

The reason was to do with NAT and the way the game assigned it's own ips and couldn't understand the NAT ips or something like that.

I did get it working a few times with mates...you have to join in a certain order if I remember correctly.

@Anim Don't talk about stuff you don't understand...some ppl dont want to use ****ty gamespy especially if they get blocked etc from the servers or on a 56k and adds to the lag.

Maybe this Linky (http://forums.relicnews.com/showthread.php?t=49339) may help...also make sure your router has port 6112 UDP not only open both ways but also has data forwarding on the port.

hth more than a certian stupid reply on this thread!

lol most ppl that dont play on gamespy dont have legitmate copies of the game, fact. when the game came out, any1 who asked for a 1v1 direct connect had a downloaded version of the game without a valid cd-key.

about stuff you dont know about ? how ironic that you mention 56k slowing down the game, shame it doesnt at all. The only thing that really makes a game of dow lag is someone having a slow pc...... oh well

Hmm well people I played with did have problems with 56k such as timeouts and all sorts of other nasties that I guess you haven't to deal with but I have ok?

Nice way to tar everyone with the same brush there buddy, everyone who plays Directconnect must have a pirate game oh of course...its not like it's a better/non gamespy option is it? Also this has been documented as a issue so I think the devs want it fixed too...omg they are releasing the pirates to play games...oh wait no they want everyone to use all the options in the game!

anyway I answered the question for the guy rather than cutting him down on a very assumed view!
