Multiplayer games

Post by philemonster »

Hi,
I've had Giants for quite a long time now and I was wondering how it was to play online.
I'm trying to download gamespy arcade but it doesn't seem to work...if anyone has any info about how to make it work, it would be great!

If you're interested by a player...I'm on!

Thanks

You cant install GameSpy?
The 1.4 patch has a exe file you could use (but that one doesnt work anymore, old version...)
Instead use the html file that can be found under the same folder (after installing the 1.4 patch)
Also install GMM and the Lost World maps...
Can be found under Downloads...

1. Did the icon show up on ur desktop?

2. Do you have an account

3. Is it installed properly?

4. Is Giants installed properly

5. How old is you're computer



If you've answered "no" 4 out of 5 questions, you'd better call 411 :P

Gamespy Arcade is sometimes incorrectly labeled as being adware due to the fact that it displays ads in it's own internal browser to unregistered people. Rest assured that it contains absolutely no adware/spyware/malware, or similar software.
