UT3 - Online - How do you get IP's for game servers?

mishima · 26 Feb 2008 at 23:10

Hi,

How do I get the IP of a server in the list of online games inside UT3? I can't seem to get the IP so I can copy/paste to a friend etc.

Thanks

What about X-fire?

Are there many people playing this online, mishima ? I enjoyed the demo but I put off buying the full game due to reading that isn't very popular. I'm getting a bit tired of TF2 and COD 4 so I wouldn't mind a bit of a change providing there were plenty of busy servers kicking about.

It's not as popular as previous series but there are still a fair amount playing it online, I only played it for the first time online last night for about 3 rounds. Really good fun!

Game Monitor has IP info for all servers. Use that.

Its like an MSN for gamers.

can be found here http://www.xfire.com/

Make an account and tell your friends to do the same and then when they are in a game x-fire will show this also you can right click the person and click join game, and then will start up UT3 for you on the same server as him.

It will also list the server ip etc he is on, though everyone uses this now.

Try it.

One thing I've noticed is that although it lists the IP of the server for UT3, it doesn't list the rest of the details. It just says The Server isn't responding to the request (or something similar). So you can't see who's playing or the full server details.

Does anyone else find that or is it just me?

Also xfire is good for finding friends who regularly change names in games.
