ITS GOOD TO PLAY TOGETHER

Post by marshallpre1 »

yea i think this was a topic before, but i cant find it so im bringing it up again.... is it possible for nfsunlimited to host a room up in like unranked so the community can come race/ chat or what not... there must be a really good time for ppl to come together maybe for a few hours or so... cause i think thatll be hot... maybe bobyx can help or one of the other moderators?? it doesnt matter what kind of race AS LONG AS EVERYONE IS AVAILABLE.... yea i think gt3 brought this up before but it had little to no response so here we go again

We'd need someone who's willing to host the room...

I like it but won't it be easyer to set a date and time and let somebody make a room in unranked you can go in that room with 25 people hosted on a ea server. So for example i make a room it would be called dragon-of-rune'sroom 1/25 so 24 other people can enter it 2

If you go to online mode. you choose unranked then you press the Z to create a new room the same way you can create a race in a room. And those room's are hosted on the ea server

no.. that is not what i meant..
read what i wrote again...
dedicated server packs?
i.e download a file that would host a room on a computer without it having to get ingame and create a room..

i dont think so.... ea has the worst way to play online.. the best u can do is create a room within the online gaming community... i really wanna do this... all we need is for one of the moderators to like pick a name called NFSUNLIMITED then create a room... then, they can exit online mode, get their regular name and then enter the room again.... and bam we have a "NFSUNLIMITED'S ROOM".... it shouldnt be that hard....

Little something else: I've been thinking about this dedicted NFSU server also. Before I went OL, I used the nfsuserver.exe to host games on a LAN. Wouldn't this also support custom vinyls/cars? As the server serves the cars, you could put your custom vinyls etc on the server so every connected user can see it? Or does the server just serve the behaviour of the car, not the way it looks (local client again)?

Perhaps somebody already tried?
