Looking for other players + A suggestion to pat.
Hello Everyone, And thank you Pat for this amazing mod. I played it a year ago with my brother and had a Hell-of-a-lot-a-fun.Thing is my brother didn't want to play challenge mode. So I only have 1 star from soloing challenge mode. So now I have come back and want to get the 2,3 and 4 stars. So I'm looking for some players to help me get my stars.
So if anyone wants to play contact me on skype. My skype name is ste41k.
You can also contact me on steam. My steam name is SomeThingEviL.
A suggestion to Everyone. You should use the Occupation section on you profile to give people your skype or other messaging service name. So people can get in contact and setup games. I saw a suggestion in the forums to add a skype input box for the profile. That would be nice but this works too.

A suggestion to pat. In The guide section of the web page you do not mention that you need port 27910 open to be seen by other players.The only thing you say is this:
If you want to be joined by other players, pay attention to firewall, proxy or NAT, they can make you unreachable.
You should add this to the guide section of the web page:
Quote:
For other players being able to join you, your quake2 need to be reachable from the Internet. Routers, NAT, proxy and firewalls may block the connection. You can manually unlock the port 27910 for both UDP and TCP, or you can use virtual network tool like Hamachi.
Or just add a link to this post
viewtopic.php?f=7&t=147 where I got that from.
I would also add a link to
http://portforward.com/ . This way people can find out how to manually unlock the port.
I don't think many people know you need port 27910 open. I often see people on (from the web page Chat box thing) but do not see them in the in-game list. I think this is why.
Anyway just a thought.
One more suggestion I know you've got before.
You really should add the two quake 2 expansions to coop or die. If you don't do it soon then things around here might start slowing down until coop or die is dead.(AND WE NEVER WANT THAT)
I know it would be a lot of work to add the quake 2 expansions (and you have other things to do) , but it would make this mod so much more Fantastically awesome and complete.
Thanks once more for Coop or Die.
