Uh oh, a new user! Prepare for noobish questions!

Post by Timber Wolf »

Hello everyone! I'm Timber! ^_^

I have Warzone 2100 for the PS1, and I enjoy it very much! Until recently, I didn't know there were others... especially an online/PC version! O__O

I just recently Googled it, and I found this site! So I joined! Yay! =D

But I'm wondering... is it played anything like on the PS1? Of course, some forum browsing showed me that there are alot of new things since PC games can be updated and stuff, which leaves me eager to play! ^_^

Also, what kind of online capabilities does it have? How will I interact with other online members? Will it be a one-on-one type of battle, or will there be multiple people involved? That would be awesome! O__O

I'm sure you can tell right now that I am very hyper and excited, so bare with me and try not to get annoyed with my over-active energy. <3

Thanks in advance for any replies, I look forward to spending time here! =P

Hello and welcome! :)

Most of us like to hang out at #warzone2100 at FreeNode. If you haven't used IRC before, you can join here:

http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=warzone2100

There's indeed a PC version. You can play online, but we've heard some complaints about people cheating, so you might want to set up games with people on our IRC channel so you can play with slightly more trustworthy people. :P

We have one-on-one battles, as well as larger battles. Interaction can work by sending messages in-game (Press Enter, type message, press Enter), or just using some external chat program like Skype.
