RoosterCogburn Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Last Saturday, me and some friends had a little LAN party and we decided to just play ET. I told them we can play at F|A ETPUB RECRUITING XPS. But when we all tried to join (5 of us) it only allowed 2 of us on the same IP. So we ended up going to a different server that allowed us all to play together. I was disappointed to see that F|A had enforced such a lame rule. I don't see any harm allowing more than 2 people of the same IP. Am I missing something here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krayzie Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 I may be mistaken, but I believe it is to prevent flooding from bots coming from the same IP? ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Time Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 IP limits are there to protect again the Q3 fill hack. That "lame rule" actually helps protect the server. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papito Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 and all had the same IP?, meaning that all were connected from the same router to play? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kandya Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Im not sure, but i think the maximum (in ur area) is 2. This means one for ur house, one for ur â€favorile LAN centerâ€. Also 1 far away , witch is ur child/s (the only other use that is allowed on ur account) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoosterCogburn Posted March 14, 2010 Author Share Posted March 14, 2010 We were all on the same router, yes. Explain to me in detail why this rule is in effect please. I just don't quite fully understand I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohurcool Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 As Terror Time said, the IP limit is probably there to protect against a q3fill hack. This is a tool that is used to fill a server with fake clients. Basically, 1 guy can log onto the server on 1 computer and take up 20 or 30 player slots. This is obviously not good. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
