It's not 2d, just old...

And don't mind Melez, he's "tired".

Im looking for someone to play AoE II with me. If anyone wants to play pm me. You need Hamachi to play multiplayer.

het Garena >___> that'll make your life alot easier...

Company of Heroes.. The most realistic WW2 game you'll ever come across... Tanks get hit more when hit in their rear.. Rifle infantry won't harm tanks like in Starcraft lol... ground is destructible, graphics own... 4 factions, Americans, British, Wehrmacht, Panzer Elite... Give it a try it's a pro game.

i really like playing red alert 3 for one reason...........bombing runs! just so intense have like 10 bombers go at different targets at the same time. just so many explosions and nothing is left

Like I said, get Garena. it's much easier than using hamachi, and you get a much larger playerbase to choose form. not too mention it works with rooms, rather than servers...

Ok, let me see...

Don't you have to pay for Garena?

NO, you can pay for some useless extras, but nothing that enhances gameplay as far as I know.

[Mirosuke]

So wich better? And what's the difference between then?
Also, those programs will work on every multiplayer games?

[DeepEvil]

Allow me to interupte since i quite All the elements of MMORPGs and going back to play RTS strategy games,lemme introduce you a complicated most rich 3d RTS game i ever played



this game gives you three factions and more than 200+ planets to own, yeah, the maps design for this game is infinite and will usualy kill your PC if you gonna play in such a big map,fortunatly there are smaller maps if you want, the gameplay is above decent and resemble to other RTS games somehow (Homeworld 2 in case of design) but here you own a planet and create your empire from capital ships to carriers to frigates and fighters, the capital ships has a level up system which you can unlock new abilities and increase your fighter squaderon, its really deep and kinda hard if you dont know how to start,because later while playing you may get a (wanted) sign by pirates, who are also a part in the gameplay and will destroy any side whos willing to pay for the head of the other team

i will leave couple of pics just as an example for the GUI and some ships
i didnt put them in IMG code because i dont wanna make loads on the page sry

I used to use hamachi, but I really preffer Garena. both work completly different:
Hamachi: hard to connect (in my experience anyway). each room is more of server, which you gotta sign up to. als interface is kinda...mehh. but you should be able to play any game with it.

Garena: easy connection, good interface (though slightly buggy for me). 5 servers; each support a certain list of games (all the same); every game has it's own rooms (for diferent countries as well), with up to 225 people per room.

supports: WC3, age2, age1, L4D and another 20 or so. but if your gonna play Warcraft or Age this is highly recommended.

EDIT:
Oh yeah, both connect through LAN connection, but through the internet. it's basicly just like you are using battle.net
