Board 8 > dialup compatible mmo's

(+) Yeah! (+)

i probably make this topic twice a year but 'oh well'

common answers: maplestory (hilarious with the lag that makes me look like I'm hacking but grew bored of it multiple times), runescape (won't run on the laptop I'm playing on, wtf), puzzle pirates (maybe, but I suck at all the puzzles now probably), get better internet (impossible)

initial downloading times aren't that big a deal since I can just make plans to go to a friend's house for the download, but i want an online game i can just play spontaneously

i usually play dofus or tlk but tlk requires a group of us for maximum hilarity and i've played dofus to death

so yeah

halp pls

why is it impossible?

I assumed your area couldn't get access to a better connection, but you say that you can just go to your friend's house for the download and I'm assuming this friend lives within a reasonable distance to you.

so tell me why impossible

He also said "make plans" so it could mean like an hour away or so. I live in a place where if I traveled 15 minutes I'd have better internet.

As for an MMO

Phantasy Star Online? >.> it's not really active or anything (would have to be blue burst) RO might work, but I havn't tested it)\.

why is it impossible?

impossible to get better internet at this house i mean, and if i was going to a friend's house I wouldn't be playing mmo's, I'd be playing ps3 games or something <_<;

I played WoW for months at my aunt's house and it was waaay more trouble than it was worth because oh my god all the family drama

Phantasy Star Online? >.> it's not really active or anything (would have to be blue burst) RO might work, but I havn't tested it)\.

hmm.. I actually have BB updated as of about three months ago already on my external hard drive so it probably still works >_>

I have no idea how well it'll run, though, but I might as well try today since I won't have to download anything

You can't even get satellite internet? Yeah it's crappy but it can't be worse.

Also I'M sureit's possible for you to get a better connection if you complain enough.

At my parent's house they were stuck with dial-up but my mom complained so damn much that they brought DSL.
