Saminthehat Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Does anyone know how big the matches in the Beta will be, I mean how many players maximum can play altogether? 16 vs. 16 would be awesome although it's probably just gonna be 8 vs. 8. They mentioned that in the real game, there will be a maxium of 16 players but I'm not sure about the Beta. I do know that there will be 2 player splitscreen though.

Fresh Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 You should have several ethernet ports in the back of your computer. Just connect it to that. I wish someone gave me that advice before I forked out 60 quid for a wireless adaptor. I plug it im but nothing happens. My PC used wireless to connect to the router if that will affect anything.

McMad Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 I plug it im but nothing happens. My PC used wireless to connect to the router if that will affect anything. Can't you plug it into one of the ethernet ports on your adaptor Fresh? That's what I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Stefkov Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 My pc only had 1 ethernet port at the back of it. And that was for the computer. All I did was plug it into the back of the router. It worked perfectly fine, maybe you have to open some ports on the router? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Stefkov Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Hmm I just remembered, the ports that I tried to open were for Media Connct, which didn't work in the end. The second thing I did was to open the NAT. Just plug it into any free port on the router. It should work, if not then I don't know how to help anymore. I'm not a tech dude, I just work from experience. Edit: It worked? Put your gamername thing on here so you can be added! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Bananagrabber Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Apparently some Elite's aren't working straight out of the box. lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fierce_LiNk Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Apparently some Elite's aren't working straight out of the box.lol. I think Jordan posted a link to Eurogamer's comparison between the Elite and Premium 360s, and...there doesn't seem to be that great a difference between the two systems. How much is the elite supposed to cost? Hmm. Why aren't they working? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Guy Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 and wired is more relaible There's not really anything wrong with wireless. I can stream music from my Mac to my Xbox using the wireless adapter and it works perfectly. Does anyone ever have any problems with wireless online gaming? Stefkov you still up for Crackdown tomorrow night? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Bananagrabber Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 To quote someone over at the Gaf: I went to Wal-Mart at midnight to pick up an Elite. Got home, plugged everything in, and it was ****ed. All that would happen was that the green ring would spin in a continuous pattern on the console, with a picture intermittently showing up on the screen. It was like the unit was in a constant state of reboot, as all I ever caught glimpses of was the splash screen. The only difference between the Elite and the Premium is a much bigger Hard Drive, HDMI output and a propra gangsta paintjob on the machine and the controller. Not much, really.
