NWN TWG Party?
« on: August 04, 2003, 04:34:13 PM »
Well, NWN is finally at a price I agree with so I picked it up and overall am pretty impressed.  Lot's of potential here.  I've already downloaded some user made modules which have been more entertaining than the official campaign.  Dang, now I'll have to buy the expansion too...

And with Soul Caliber II just over the horizon...


Anyway, I was wondering if any of you still play and if you might want to meet for a game.  No DM, probably just stomp through a module, but I think it could be great fun.  Playing with folks you don't know through random servers just isn't that much fun...

When I did play, borrowing my friends copy that is, I found this pretty cool server called "Dusk Haven" under the RP section or something. The website is nwn.uselesstidbits.com and I haven't been keeping up with it lately, so I couldn't tell you whats been going on recently.

I'd be up for it. How would we do it--find a server, or try a direct connect, or what? I don't even remember how multiplayer works on that game...

I've never had a successful multiplayer NWN experience, but I still wish I had. I was so psyched for this game when it came out. If you can work something out, I'd probably fire up my old copy and play.

Well after Boards we'll have to see about a gathering of heroes.

IIRC, if someone sets up a server we can just enter its IP address to connect to it.

Given my dial up connection, I don't think I'd be a good choice for the server :)

Ya doing a direct connect via ISP will be better then connecting throught someone elses static server.  You'll get a better ping time.  If my PC could run it I'd voulnteer my PC as the server, with my 1.8 mb/sec connection :)

I'd be willing, but my computer can only just barely manage NWN. I'm still not sure how I got through the single player campaign with all that chop.

Well, I'd like to give this a shot tonight.  I'll pop on here and post my IP address around 8:30 central time.  I'll wait 15 minutes to see if anyone shows up.

Just for 3rd edition goodness, we'll play through the Sunless Citadel if that's okay.

See you tonight...hopefully.

Oh, and I've got to remember the program that tells me my ip addy...

Yay, I played part of Sunless Citadel in pen-and-paper. We're using level 1 characters, I assume?

I'll definitely try to come, but I'm watching my kids tonight (Mommy has the night off) so I'd be very surprised if I get a chance to play before 9:30. I'll log on and see where you are.

Ok, since most of us either a) don't have it, or b) can't run it, how about we do this.

We get on mIRC or some other IRC-type program, same network, and some channel we decide upon. And then from there we just do a dungeon crawl, or if someone wants to, run a campaign?

I know theres less pretty graphics, but you can entertain yourself with those types of things anyway. So, anyone up for that?

Seems about as many have it as have Warcraft 3... It's just not installed for most people.

Make sure you update the latest patch or you won't be able to play.  As late as I posted this I doubt I'll see any of you.

Remember, If no one is in there by 8:50 or so I'll log off as I'll assume no one is coming :)

So we actually can't connect directly via IP address so I'll make this under the Internet/LAN game option under the name:  TWG  
Password will be dagger

Hope to see you all soon...

I'd be there if my PC would still run it.  But I'm not buying another Video card till I get a new PC.

That's okay.

If anyone had shown up I wouldn't have been online to discuss The Ultimate Secrets of Gaming with you. :)
