Thread: can we play the game?

Okay, Im an old player of this game back in like 2005-2007 but now Im wondering, I downloaded the game, the new patch for the EA loader but I still cannot play atm, I've read forums but none are accurate cause all are old forums posted in 2009 or in feb. Im stuck in the screen of Loading from the Endless.exe it goes loading -> checking for updates i get a bar of (----) then it freezes there. can some body help me?

You can't play because there is no server to connect to. If you had taken the time to read through the posts you would have known what is going on.

Problem is, that I did read about 32 threads/ and a load of post but sounds idiotic too me. Thet should've already had a server/server provider up and going. if Not just get Linux Operating server and you can make your own server through there. Itll give you the server terminal client program which allows you to make servers for different types of games what i use for now =p

shaints11, it should say on the front page that the server is down and NOBODY can play. Why none of these brilliant mother****er has figured this out yet I don't know.

*giggles* :3

You ratted me out. I thought it was just between us. *sniff*

Kiss and tell - I'm such a blabbermouth

You can partition your HDD to boot dual OSs and run both. Most people who know enough to really work with Linux aren't all that worried about viruses but prefer it for other reasons. Having said that, I can't figure out what this has to do with EA.

lol ya linux does rock we use it as well not much virses wat so ever but dad knows all about it i dont lol hehe i kinda agree with shain there we came back to it i know dad might have said the samething to the ea developers just shain just said now bc i asked father. but anyway thats enough for me right here

Linux on the other hand has a different bi standards in which programs are harder to corrupt files or infect them. about 75% of the US uses linux and on the east coast such as Asia, Korean(north and south) russia all of them use Linux cause they hate bill gates and how it is so easy to crack/hack and penetrate fire walls/anti mal wares/virus protectors. thats why It isnt a safe operating system to use.

When I had windows which was for years since 95 was out I had viruses from all over, even through the AD's that people use could give you a virus but Linux going through it, youll barely find A virus to be able to hurt it.

And why in the world would I help EA? I am not gonna run up my electric bill to host a server for a bloody game that is not even up by now. You guys had it going for years on end and all of sudden i quit and you guys shut down and still not up =p, I mean by now late in 2 years already, you should already have a server up and going. I have 2 server computers in which are fast enough to run alot of different programs at once, But my brother and uncle use one for there thing and I use this Acer (which kinda sucks ever now and then) I dont use linux on the acer and I run the linux on my other computer's (5 computers) So that people would buy them but since the economy is in the **** hole cause of obama now, I dont think people is gonna buy them at the time being.

What Snowfox meant was that you are not going to be able to run the Endless Ages server application on a linuxbox unless your trying to run it with wine which atm probably doesn't work either. Your life story about linux and your computers was a waste of time for anyone to read.

So to sum it all up, know wtf your talking about before you post. Good day.

Hey Rolled how's it going? Don't be such a stranger, bro

Look, rolled, dont get cocky now, and yes wine does work and Linux can and will work with the EA for server wise and hosting and playing the game, If you knew how to use it thought which in my case I do, Which case dont come explain my theory was wasted which it wasnt and if you were paying attention reading you'd know I was trying to make a Point to Snowfox.

Btw, you cant run dual HDD 2 operating systems such as Windows on one and Linux on the other cause they wont see each other(different bio and system preferences) they will not run that way, I have already tried doing so and nearly frying my mother board for such thing.

What he was trying to say is:
Yes, running a linux server WILL work.
Yes, Wine DOES work.
However, Endless Ages (and its server) DOES NOT work with Wine. There are complications preventing them from working as it should via Wine.

As for dual booting via two seperate HDD's, it is possible. You just need a boot manager, such as GRUB, ISOLinux, etc. It even works on two partitions on the same physical drive.

Glad you stepped in Blegh now I dont need to write a post slamming this idiot.

Pointless in telling me snowfox, and yes It can run it.

It can run a MSSQL and a ODBC data base sources files KLL DLL kernel pf files etc... All it requiers is al ittle patience and time consuming for to rewright some scripting and file formates and changing Directories.

and to include this, Okay your talking about Mmorpg 3d and 2d wise based games, US uses 50% linux wise to setting up them. Across the pacific ocean, Korea russia Even China, Use linux to create their games through linux cause they dont like bill gates **** up OS. So yea pretty much your wrong about linux you have No idea No clue Not even a thought on what linux can do and how much better it can do things that Windows, or Macintosh can do.

And most of the Play station, Xbox, Nintindo's consols games are created with either Windows or Linux thats why when they put it in for PC youll check the box labeling for which OS for it can be used it on majority of them are (LINUX, WINDOWS, and Mac or Other OS).

Btw, Macintosh sucks, it always have and will be ****ty for ever its just ment for a Graphic designs etc..

Which Windows incase are used for simplier programming

And Linux is used for both + Designing stuff in more actual 3D

Im done now, so When will the game be up and going any way? =o

Leave it to Blegh to be the perfect diplomat. How lucky we are to have a guy with his knowledge and aptitude for making things work out in the middle of sheer chaos. Kudos to you Blegh - for a young guy you have taught me a great deal. I have nothing but respect and admiration for you.

And shaints11, don't let it get to you, bro. Stick around and get to know us. We may not sound like it at times (mostly me) but we really do know what we're talking about. In time you will see.

Hope you get to play a little EA...that will show you just how we all feel about this game and how it grows on you. Welcome to the family.
