You guys who say Warcraft3, do you mean actual WC or DotA?

Coz I'm looking for some peeps to play 2v2, 3v3, or 4v4 AT with on Europe.

Oh is there something else you can do in War3 besides Dota? What is this 2v2, 3v3 or 4v4, is it something European? :D

What do you need to play Starcraft online, aside from the game itself, how do you connect to that server in your sig?

That's an irc channel ;) not a game server :p

Nope that's the gaming server, not an IRC server. Unfortunately the old Gosu SC server closed down, so the Twilight/War3 guys are hosting for us.

To connect you need to add the server address to a "Starcraft gateway editor" - search Google :)

Starcraft - uses fsckall bandwidth. Maybe 1MB per hour?

Perfect for South Africa :D

lol thats soo 60's man ;p

way more intense strat games out there now - SC's simplicity gets boring.
Know your build order - know the mineral layouts of the maps - and then follow the same process over and over again hoping to achieve victory with somebody following similar processes ;p

Now that you got some cards that will run something more recent, you should broaden your horizons ;):D

I wont deny that it is a legend for its time...

WoW and it looks like a bit of Eve online in my future again.

No time for anything else (Installed HGL and played only one evening).

Im a wow + gw + ex-eve player

wow takes about 5mb an hr in a dead zone ingame, and up to 50mb an hr when playing with 25 / 40 other players at once (in a raid/battleground)
(with 3g on a EU server, latt ranges from 600-1100, on adsl 300-500 4 me)

gw hardly uses any cap, its the background downloader and loading up all the 'zones' that chews cap (normally only 5-15mb per zone tho), my gw pings have been round 400

Eve i never rly monitored the usage
