Right so after years of playing this on and off, I gave a mate back home a pc that can actually play it so we've been playing it online loads in the last few days and its been awesome!

Now iv persuaded my flatmate to get it and play too , only problem is i cant work out how to have both of us playing it over one internet connection. Is there some special way to force us to both have the same speed/"amount" of internet and acive resonable pings???

Get back to the linux forums.

Hahaha, yeah lifes not as fun when your not despensing the advice...

Fancy a game in 10 mins? it's pretty much the only FPS game I can play right now due to my 7800gt...

Yeah ok, just need to find a way so bo my and my flatmate can play it at the same time down our connection (virgin media).

Random but the 7800gt was awesome for this game (card in the pc i gave to a mate back home last week)

Ah bum i was hoping it could do left 4 dead

Ok ill give you a shout when i get it working

 

[pingwing]

Ah ok if its turned down thats all good i think!

Im just pingwing

 

[pingwing]

Ahh ok ill give it a bash (turns out having 4od kills steam bit so its all good)

do you have a router?

i don't understand the problem here

me and my brother can play TF2 at the same time on my mum's crappy 256kb connection, pings around 70ms

Turns out between us we had too many things trying to upload (for no reason) down our connection. So killing (inactive) 4od, bit torrent and windows update freed our connection up for both of us to play

As for the 7800gt i just need to convince my mate back home that l4d will run on it (might try and sort out the demo or something for him another day)

We all should deffinatally have a ocuk game of css (despite playing it most of the last few days....)
