Did you ever get a password co-op server running so the team killers could be kept out? I would like to try running a co-op server sometime but I am behind an SMC router and have never been able to get any game servers to work. I have contacted support and would like to try again. I'm about one quarter of the way thru doom3. holmes

I didn't go anyplace, but except for this thread, the group has turned into
a few porno site promos. As much as I loved Q2 I must admit I don't play it
anymore.

I like the co-op play and have started a game with my daughter on the lan. That got me interested in online co-op play. There used to be games announced here but none of late.

My huge expensive monitor knew exactly when the warranty expired and punched out. The emergency backup is too small, too dark, and too worn out for play. Sigh. I did get the big screen running again for one day. Crossing my fingers that it's a high voltage leak. I'll be using some serious compressed air next to get every last dust bunny.

Onslaught is the first game I played which makes effective use of vehicles.
It has a fatal flaw though -- it's so difficult to make a comeback that the
outcome is usually determined in the first couple of minutes.

Sure, I remember theoddone33. I remember it took me about a month to parse
your name correctly. I was seeing it as "theo done" or something. Then one
day it hit me. Yeah, I can be a little dense. :) Good times back in 99
