Playing online

[Johnsy1927]

Although it seems there arent many still using Worms 2 online me and my mate have been trying to set up a game. We have got the patch. so we can make our own rooms and see each other in the lobby and chat. Then one of us can host the game but when the other goes to connect to the game it just keeps timing up and doesnt let us play

anyone got any info for this. On whoevers hosting's page it says the rooms open etc

I'm no expert, but believe it's the usual firewall problem thingy... you'll need to do some port forwarding to be able to join each other.

Unsure if these use TCP or UDP protocol but I've always needed to forward these ports on my router to get Worms 2 to work online. My router lets me forward for both TCP and UDP so I just use that option for every port I forward >.>"

Does anyone play online anymore? Does anyone play at all? :( i loved this game back in the day...how many servers are active now?

The game did just get a Good Old Games rerelease, but internet and LAN play have been disabled in that version, or rather, the GOG guys weren't able to get it working.

Apart from that, the server that the CD version has access to looked pretty empty when I hopped on the other day. You're better off getting WA.

I still have the Worms 2 CD and, the original server seems to be empty by now.

It was empty when I got the game in 2001.

I still have the game, with a working connection that uses the UK server.
