:DL Anyone want to play like right now. I'm free.

Get rid of the mod pack and mod patch packs first. Just to be safe. I tried playing before but ETW kept telling me we had different version of ETW.

There's ahotfix out today btw.
v 1.2.0 1060.4666

you must forward the ports for steam in order for the game to show up for others in the ETW MP lobby.

I'm pretty sure you have to set Steam to the same download zone to see the servers

At least, it showed different ones when I switched mine around

Played ETW MP a few times, I have come to the conclusion that basic strategy isn't a part of most players' education

HHehehehehe I set my steam downlaod to Australia telstra.

Anyway....thanks for letting em know that as I am not familiar with steam(however switching between Indonesia and Australia didn't make any difference but switching between them and San Jose, US did make a difference). I tried a 4 Vs 4 MP when setting my steam download area to San Jose US, but I dropped from the game. I'm stuck with Australian I guess lol

Task force I need your steam name btw I think. You got PM too, sorry it didnt work man.

I've been playing ETW MP since yesterday the people I played with are usually very good in land battles. However I haven't lost a single naval battle yet as I think most people I fought in naval battle were noob. :)

Every land battle that I played disconnected halfway through, so no wins yet

Played 2 naval battles, both 2v2. The first game I "lost" after my ally decided to abandon me completely and let me fight outnumbered 2:1 (I did make it very painful for them, and we would've won had the timer didn't run out before my ally finished off their last ship). On the second game I told my ally to do exactly what I say, ended up destroying one of the other team's members without much damage, then we won when his friend resigned about a minute later

Hi guys im interested in joining your online fun. Are you guys playing Vanilla ETW? I have shied away from online play with Empire so far. So if you want a partner for some 2v2 battle let me know. Though i most likely suck badly.

Come one people pelase share you steam name so that we can add each other name.

My steam name is michael withstand.

I've been lucky that none of the people I played with disconnected halfway through the game lol.

I won 1 land battle and lost 3
I won 5 naval battles( 2 of em ranked) and lost 1

It's been quite fun. I'm hoping CA would give us the full online campaign feature in the future.
