i dont have much knowledge about hamachi...why couldnt i use it too?
and everone else who doesnt use it atm...
First, it requires windows XP.
Second, it makes your computer VULNERABLE.
So vulnerable that other people can enter in your computer, or if someone got a virus on their computer, the virus may go to yours as well.
I caugh a virus like this in one of the 2-3 times i used hamachi. And well, do you want me to say what hapened to my hard disk?
And from experience, seriously, this is one of the best game killers i ever saw - you cant offer agreements, speak or do anything with people (in general) that is using hamachi, unless you are using it as well. It is really frustrating when you are in an alliance with someone using hamachi, you invite him to a war, he cant join. You offer him a RM, he CTDs. You offer him a TA, he CTDs. You speak to him, he cant hear you. Etc, Etc.
Lastly, it also causes a lot of instability. To be honest, i wouldnt dare the risks of playing with hamachi - i have seen to many a game ending prematurely due to it.
And, who really needs hamachi? It is only Bodvar IIRC. No offense there Bodvar, but putting an entire campaign at risk just because you need it, is a bit... unecessary.
Cant you open the DMZ (since you use a router), Bodvar? It will leave your computer as vulnerable as hamachi leaves it, and will allow ALL ports to conect into your computer - it will also save us a lot of problems.
