Comeback_King Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 Hey guys, been a member for a little bit and visit the website kinda frequently trying to understand how you guys know all this stuff! It's beyond me, this computer stuff. But I think I figured out how to play on-line but can't find anyone to play against. Is there anyone out there that would like to play a quick game so I know exactly what to do? From what I gathered, I go to netplay, pick a server (this is where I get lost- any server? what's a server?) anyway i picked one and created a game nhl 94 and I guess wait??? Nobody joins in. I think I'm doing this correctly but everyone is playing fighting games. Man I'm 28 and grew up on the consoles not computers so any help would be appreciated. Basically I'm looking to play my friends, new people in the chicagoland area (anyone from the area?) and see how good I am to play on-line in a league. It sounds like I'm gonna get my ass kicked but it's better than beating the same people every time. Thanks Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't get into the snes version Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evan Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 It sounds like you're doing everything right, but you have to collaborate with someone to play a game. Can't expect someone to just pop into your game without planning it. Hit up a few guys on AIM or on the forum who tend to play often and then you'll be able to start a game online. Make sense? -Evan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah my questions might sound dumb but I suck what can I say. thanks for the help. we can't figure out why he isn't getting a notification. he can't reply to this topic either, tried that too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a tutorial Evan's done for getting started online. I have a dedicated '94 emulinker server thats in Chicago. Lag should be non-existent if your both from the same local. Enter ip 208.100.63.106 in netplay. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
