Hi,
I bought opf a few days ago, and am very frusterated because I cannot join a game. I run gamespy, join a game, once and a while get into the game, then i get the yellow/red box on the bottom right and it says "No Message from Server 10 Secs" or something like that, and disconnects after 45. I'm on 56k, is it my connection that's screwing up? or is it i have something mis/not configured?
I was able to play couter-strike fine online.

1. it's a combination btw your
connection and gamespy. Gamespy
is running some advertisements in
background which will reduce your
performance too.

2. ASE in this point i agree to Malboeuf
(lol it's the first time i do) - get it and
you'll have better performance and you
will be able to find enough servers online.

3. You could also go to codies chat
www.codemasters.com (ofp\multiplayer)
and try to connect there by getting an
ip address and enter it by pressing
the remote button in MP-screen.

4. don't try to host any MP games with
your 56k, the clients which join you
wouldn't be very happy about the
performance

5. get a faster connection, you will
love the result.

I was talking to a friend who said that this game was unplayable on 56k, like rouge spear. I guess i'll just stick with counter-strike till i get a faster connection... I tried ase with the same results... is it possible to join a game where u can play right away and respawn in the game? If so, where/how would i set this up over a lan?
