Zygomaticus Posted December 12, 2001 Share Posted December 12, 2001 the zone- 2 players for a new rts game quite impossible to believe but when i went there were 5-10 players i never saw the zone with a popular rts game with less that 500 players i think the zone is deteriorating and its getting unpopular Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nerf Herder Posted December 12, 2001 Share Posted December 12, 2001 This was a stupid thing for MS to do. I only saw 4 people in the games and when I tried to get in I wasn't able get on. Why does MS have to do this. I tried going to Gamespy but it cost $20 and it only had 36 people. Was there any easy way to log on. I already have that ".NET" account, my hotmail account. This just plain sucks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthfergie Posted December 12, 2001 Share Posted December 12, 2001 Ouch...oh well.

Lord Xizor Posted December 12, 2001 Share Posted December 12, 2001 today was the first day of the new zone sign in. people arent playing because the server is incredibly lagged and not working properly so they cant get a new zone name, it has nothing to do with people not wanting to play the game. if you look at the total people on the zone its no where near the usual 100,000+, its more like 10,000 and those are all people playing board games as guests, in a few days once everyone gets signed up with the new system there will be 300 people playing SWGB on zone again, and after christmas hopefully many more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nerf Herder Posted December 12, 2001 Share Posted December 12, 2001 I'm going to hold you to your words Lord Xizor. Well I tried the demo fo Gamespy and got a game going. I still didn't see too many people, but I did find someone to play with. I'm not really all that good, but I kicked some arse. I even won a 3 player ffa with the RA (rebel alliance). Last week I was like 2-10, it was great to win my last 3 games Well I hope the Zone will be up and running soon. The competition seems to be better, but at least now I have two places to go.

1MGxLeGion Posted December 13, 2001 Share Posted December 13, 2001 What are you talking about gamespy is free to play on. it only cost $20 if you want to register and remove the adds. but its free as the air you breath. and the reason no one plays GB on it is because of zone tards that don't even know about it. cause if they game has a link to the zone that must be the place to go. But i bet after this mishap from msn. look for more people to play it on gamespy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kudar Posted December 15, 2001 Share Posted December 15, 2001 I got round the Zone problem by deleting all the cookies on my pc, closing down internet explorer and trying again, now it works, but I generally have to click the .NET login button twice before I get in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
