Direct Connection
Thu, 2011-03-10 14:35
This is a bit of an old concept, but seems to have been neglected from ALL games lately.
Multiplayer over a direct TCP connection. This could allow for gameplay when two or more players are not on the same LAN and the official server is down.
Could you elaborate on what you mean by "direct TCP connection"
If you mean TCP without IP, what protocol are you using instead?
If you just mean a crossover cable with assigned IPs, that's a non-issue. Just have one of the two computers launch the server. Done.
