    Yeah the graphic's will need to be at absolute minimum so you don't die from lag x.x

    I only know this cause I started a little baby sin on another account to plvl with my BM so I could fill two FF slots with a single computer b:shocked

    While you may be able to play on a slower dialup or wireless connection, ideally, you will want to play on a fast broadband wired internet connection for the best performance as mobile cell and other wireless connections are prone to interference.
    Do you need help learning about patching the game, installing it, changing antivirus/firewall settings, changing network settings, learn how to use a computer, keeping your PC maintained and more?

    a guy who used to work with me, used to play PWI at lunch times using a 3G/wireless broadband connection - it played really well, little lag even in archosaur (this was about a year and a half ago) and it didnt even eat into his data allowance.

    That depends on your area and network you're with.
    I play on 3G wireless (australia) - virgin broadband. Most companies will provide you with network coverage information. Do check this out. If you don't you may have wasted hard earnt money for nothing.

    If you're having trouble with lag, test different areas of your house. Certain things will interfer with the connection... Also weather can play a factor too.b:sad

    You may need to dull down the graphics if you're still too laggy... But I play on my pc with them cranked all the way up and don't have an issue cept for archo (to be expected).b:pleased

    I have done this occasionally to. It isn't the best, but it works.
