Since Teknogods isnt that professional, as we would like them to be and NTA proved his skills many times now, i would like to let the community choose about a second option for playing IW5M in places where internet is not avaiable or to difficult to get it there.

 

I had a little argue with NTA about this and cuz two opinions are not enough for a judgement, i would like to give you all the possibility of showing interest.

 

This is NOT a request or a try to force this "second client".

It shall be a reminder for the development team to get it onto their roadmap sometime.

 

Have fun voting!

 

PS: The offline-client would use own stats and unlocks to prevent online-boosting and stuff.

NTA should focus on other things, but later - why not?

He is a good guy. But iam afraid, that there is a trend growing up within the players community that LAN should be abandoned. This is only a test to see if they want no more LAN. But it seems that the true opposite is happening.

 

I just want to make sure, that it wont be forgotten.

why would there need to be a second client? ._.

Just because?

"Could not reach FourDeltaOne.net server. Will now run in LAN mode"

Something like that

Well for now IW5M needs more important things than Offline-LAN, like implementing favorites & history to the server browser and other stuffs like new DLC support, would be more usefull to the community than LAN (even if I totally agree that LAN is sometinhg important).

 

Also doing offline stuffs is quite opposed to NTA's way of doing things as he often do some heavily online based projects...

Original LaunchIW5M for Online and a second one for the Offline-mode.

But if both could be fusioned into one client.. okay.

Agreed.. but it would be a nice favour in the end right ?

It's 23:05 here in my time zone. You came just in time to win the "fail of the day" title.

Do you even know what LAN is?

That sounds nice.

I guess he does not..

I truely LOLED on his post..

Apart from anything else, this would ruin the security of the anti-chet.

Nice Idea, or maybe LauchIW5MOffline?? (doesn't need login and internet connection)

 

I strongly agree with the implement of the LAN feature

- There is already a LAN tab in the server list.

- No more very high ping.

- Don't care about terrible unstable internet connection.

- Smoother gameplay (more enjoyable when you paly with friends or relatives)

- No more "Lost Connection to host" / "Server Connection timed out".

So yes I really wish NTA adds this feature in some later time.

Good Luck.

Adding offline would be great for this project but there are more important things

 

* Tnet Service

Are you kidding me i would love the game to be LAN that would be f***king cool or may be NT doesn't want to do it because that's what Tekno is doing but i think its a good idea i really hope he makes one

But NTВґs staff could do it way better than Teknogods

At least they wouldnt paint big red "TeknoMW3" all over the program...

LAN Would be awesome!!

IW4M should also get this option!!!

Will have to play co-ops?

I never actually understood why people would want LAN. Why? Everyone who plays IW5M has an account. And in what case would you lose internet access, but still have LAN? Everyone has internet nowadays.

4D1 focuses on Multiplayer to provide better modding and dedicated server support.

Singleplayer is not supported atm. Maybe later. Or never.

Yeah, I want to see that TNET service before any other suggested thing, looks cool.

Join 300 people on a LAN party like I do and see the routers crashing like I do. Then you'll realize the need of LAN mode.

Most of the LANs don't even have internet connection. And the ones who have just have a connection made for that weekend, wich always go down too often because it was installed on a rush.

*push push push*

The current stability situation is another point which stands for a LAN-client.

The server is crashing from time to time and you cant login anymore..

Also this "Disconnected from Steam" is another phenomenon, but there is no Steam running at all
