Joining a Game

Hello:

I played H2 quite a bit a few years ago and am just getting back into things after a long hiatus with H3ANW. What is the method most players use to find an MP game? The MP feature was the catalyst that prompted me to buy H3ANW.

Lots of ways you can find an opponent for a game of MP. You can:

1) Leave a message on this thread of your availability
2) Check out either of these chat rooms HarpGamer pHp chat room (http://www.harpgamer.com/chat/phpMyChat.php3) or the HG mIRC chat room (http://www.harpgamer.com/HARP_chat.php)
3) Ask one of the players who posted on this thread for a match via PM.

Although the HG ANW Server is available 24/7 to the public, most games appear to be pre-arranged affairs. Drop me a line and I'll play you anytime you like.

Welcome back, shipmate. :cool:

HH:

Thanks for the info. I just d/l'd H3ANW on Sunday, so as soon as I've had some time to refamiliarize myself with the UI, I'd definitely like to take a stab at playing. Probably something straightforward at first, like Dawn Patrol.

I've also installed the PDB as it sounds like that is what the majority of players are using.

In order to use the PlayersDB-ANW and the community ANW Server hosted by HG, you need to patch your game up to the 3.8.0 version.

You can get the patch here;

Looking forward to the match.
