Title: Thp3 Online
Post by: YNOT2K on November 03, 2001, 06:44:27 AM
Just got the game, the first thing I did was play online. kinda suck at it now, but it\'s fun playing online.  We need a place where other online players can get talk and setup games.  Also is it posable to play online with your create a player, and your create a track?

I have DSL on the computer with a router,  I just went to best buy, picked up a USB NETWORK ADAPTOR, hooked it up and started playing.

How so? Unless your playing Directly. The servers are not even supposed to be activated. They need to be configured and they postponed that because they require a modem to do so. This is why no third party modem has been released stateside yet.

Very fun playing online, not to many people out there yet.  I think if you go to the thps.com it will tell what adapters will suport online play.  I cant wait till other online games come out.

Yes, Playing online is amazing!!! I don\'t know why more developers follow activision and release games with the same online features. I conect my Linksys USB to ethernet converter to one of the USB port in the PS2 and conected my PS2 to my home router. It really rocks!! I love playing Grafitti mode!!

I also read at the manual that there is a web site were you can find what USB hardware works with the game. I can tell you that you can get online using a USB dialup modem, USB PPoE Modem, or a simple USB to ethernet converter.

This game is great and is only the begining of online playing on the PS2:bounce:

By the way YNOT2K, what nick did you use. Maybe be can play someday. Mine is the same but I suck a little right now :D.

To PSXXX,  MY thps3 online name is "Wrongfoot" I suck at it too. if you see a man with a cowboy hat and boots on with no shirt on with tattoos. alway falling down, then thats me.  I\'ll look for you online.    I only wish there was a lobby were you could chat befor entering a game.

:laughing: Sorry, reading your post make me remember all those bad tricks that made me bite the dust :laughing:

I\'ll also look for you. A lobby is the only thing missing in this game. What we can do is to tell each other a time when we can play and create a room or game call ps2central with password also ps2central. I can play any weeknight from 9pm Est to 11.30pm Est.
What do you think? Anyone else out there want to join us? Remember you have to suck as we do:D

Can\'t you use pretty much any 3rd party USB modem.

Whats it like with modem i\'ve only read about ethernet. Not everyone can get ethernet y\'know.
