Shibathedog Posted March 6, 2004 Posted March 6, 2004 As you may know, the Quake III Arena Servers for DC have always be up, and still are, and always will be, because they are all user hosted now well anyway, i picked the game up again...and i blow ass now hehe, but im not really THAT bad, just....not nearly as good as i used to be. notheless, would anyone like to play me?
BobRedthorp Posted March 7, 2004 Posted March 7, 2004 I'll play ya Shiba! name the room, and time! bring it on!
Cominus Posted March 7, 2004 Posted March 7, 2004 I'd play you but i dont have a damn dial up connection(dc hates aol) Does the mouse work really well on the dc? Because i played Red Faction 2 on ps2 with a mouse and it sucked....well you know.
Shibathedog Posted March 7, 2004 Author Posted March 7, 2004 I use the Mouse (although my scroll wheel is kinda flocked) and a crappy madcatz adaptor with a crappy 8 year old keyboard and it works except the scroll wheel takes like 3 clicks to do anything and the keys stick alot on the keyboard i really need to get another official DC keyboard but oh well Uhh i cant really name a room because thier always different. Smoking Guns arena has a nice mod, but it lags after about 2 people are in it ill just be in the one with the fastest speed probably, how about we play tomorrow or something? what times are ok with you guys?
BobRedthorp Posted March 7, 2004 Posted March 7, 2004 I may be on tonight but I'm gonna try and connect to the internet through my pc so I dont have to use the dial-up charge. I ve got a handy guide that lets you connect your DC modem through a 56K modem on your pc and share the broadband connection, you dont even need the BBA on your DC.
Shibathedog Posted March 7, 2004 Author Posted March 7, 2004 i know about that but i can give you a toll free dialup account if you need it (the dial number is a 1-800 number)
DanManXZ Posted March 7, 2004 Posted March 7, 2004 I hate this game. Well it's because I dont have a kebourd&mouse for my DC. SO the controls really suck ass. It would have been better if they made a Deathmatch for DC Halflife.
Cominus Posted March 7, 2004 Posted March 7, 2004 Hey siba, did you need the utopia boot disk to get unreal tounament working?
BobRedthorp Posted March 7, 2004 Posted March 7, 2004 (edited) i know about that but i can give you a toll free dialup account if you need it (the dial number is a 1-800 number)I dont think that number would work from where I am from, and if it did it may cost loads? Free numbers here are normally 0800 numbers. Edited March 7, 2004 by BobRedthorp
Shibathedog Posted March 8, 2004 Author Posted March 8, 2004 then it wouldnt work yeah, its MUCH better with a mouse/keyboard i prefer Mouse/Keyboard over ANY controller, its much better. No, i dont need the Utopia Boot Disc to get UT working, you cant play that game online anymore anyway though (yet) Anyway, i just went out and brought a brand spankin new Official Keyboard, one of the rare-er ones with the Sega/Net logo instead of the Dreamcast logo too!!!! anyway, i am REEEEEALY tired right now, its been a long day, but id be happy to play anyway, if anyone here wants to play, post soon, and ill get on. (in using a US region disc, but supposedly all DC servers are worldwide, because ive played with people from france/UK/etc.)
Shibathedog Posted March 8, 2004 Author Posted March 8, 2004 Ok, im getting online in about 10 minutes, if anyone wants to play, find me
Shibathedog Posted March 8, 2004 Author Posted March 8, 2004 alright sorry about that, turns out my mom is expecting an important phone call, i wasnt on anyway, i was playing some bots, and i dont suck so much anymore, i had to hook up the new keyboard, and get a higher chair, speed up the mouse, and now im alot better anyway, ill be back on later tonight to tell you when i can play or not
BobRedthorp Posted March 8, 2004 Posted March 8, 2004 (edited) I use the Mouse (although my scroll wheel is kinda flocked) and a crappy madcatz adaptor with a crappy 8 year old keyboard and it works except the scroll wheel takes like 3 clicks to do anything and the keys stick alot on the keyboard i really need to get another official DC keyboard I always use the mouse and keyboard, I find it really hard with the controller. I have two official keyboards, my aunt works in a charity shop, and they aren’t aloud to sell electrical items only clothing, so when someone donates games or consoles etc she just passes them on to me, I've got 8 DC controllers, 4 DC mice, 12 Mega Drives, 10 SNES and 6 Amiga’s out of her, lol Not bad for free!

ken_cinder Posted March 8, 2004 Posted March 8, 2004 Shiba, drop me a PM with that free dialup?I've always wanted to just get my DC online, and I haven't had a dialup account for a while now, and there are no free ones in my area at all anymore. Tried that DC>PC server, but my DC's modem isn't an internally powered one, requires power from a live phone line (sux!)
BobRedthorp Posted March 8, 2004 Posted March 8, 2004 Tried that DC>PC server, but my DC's modem isn't an internally powered one, requires power from a live phone line (sux!)Yeah, I think that is the same with me, but there is a way around this!
