    I should've added "not using the search function" on the list I gave you earlier.

    Often its best to use the search function before you ask questions here. People can get very annoyed when the same question is asked by different people over and over.

    You can use it if you want, but here's the answer to your question anyway-- multiplayer no longer exists in Arcanum. The multiplayer servers were shut down with it at whatever date. You can probably join a LAN game but you will never be able to work with another player.

    Were the servers really shut down? I haven't got the game installed, so I can't try.

    The servers are NOT down. Sierra and Troika stopped hosting them a LONG time ago. Go to www.won.net and sign up, they supply the server space now. They do suck giant, information super-highway dick, but they are functional.

    I'm getting AIM flashbacks from you. They're making me angry.

    This seems like a good time to derail this topic, which shouldn't have been posted in GD in the first place.

    Did any of the U.S. folks around here have a Super Bowl party yesterday?

    My brother did. He said he'd had "mom's friend's little super bowl party". As there is no Super Bowl here (no Super Bowl or baseball at all), I asked him jokingly what that was, if it was a Tupperware meeting. Later he confessed that Tupperware was his secret obsession.

    I thought they shut down the servers, even from external sources. My fault >.<

    And my dorm had a major superbowl party yesterday. Half of the room where we have a big screen TV was Seahawk, and the other half Steelers. Steeler-side was a considerably larger :p

    Having been born and raised in Seattle, I was naturally pulling for the Seahawks. I knew they would blow it though. Just like every other Seattle team that ever makes it to the playoffs or championship.

    No, I moved to Tennessee about 5 years ago. I kinda miss it, but I don't miss the rain.
