Multiplayer Questions

Submitted by Darfix on Fri, 2007-02-23 14:20. Space Empires V FAQs

I've been doing some research on how this game works in Multiplayer. I haven't played a Multiplayer game since Diablo 2 lol and have a few questions.

I notice the PBW service seems to be inactive or low activity but it seems a lot better than playing SEV straight online because that would require sitting at the PC for straight 10 hours or more due the time it can take to play the game. But I want to do something with human players because the AI disappoint me Smiling

So basically, what is the most recommended way to play online? Why do you recommend it? How would I go about getting myself in a game with other players, and is custom content (I have my own made up races) compatible online?

Thanks for your time.

(I would have put this in multiplayer but it IS a question so...)

PBW low activity? In 3 days I managed to get into a handful of games, and recently I had even to cancel one, because I will not have the time to play it!

And if you want a (relatively) fast 1vs1 game without all the diplomacy there is King of the Hill : http://www.koth.spaceempires.net/

The PBW service works just fine. There's just no 'news' items popping up, and so the last entry is very old.. But updates in the supported stuff is regular en games work fine that way.

The front door is just a little deceiving.
