about starting

ive found 3 (i aint included ) people that are willing to play

but problem is we need to talk about things and such

like

does evry one have TOB ?
does evry one have latest patch ?
are we going to take NPC's of pc in ?
when are we going to play ?.
are we going to play once or continue ?
are we just going to rush and kill what we pass ?
and how you guys play? like
i pause when am going to fight ...
i pull my mage to a safe place and start casting spells
and send warrior to fight ...
does evry one does this i dont think so,
so we should at least think things over before we start playing
i prefer a bit preperation and not just rush into the game
if you dont like this, we could also just start

i would prefer to roleplay as much as possible. i will play the game and accordingly to my alignement and what i believe the character would do. about the pausing: in a mp game, i think it would be best for the host to be the only one pausing, and just so that the mages/clerics can cast their spells. to make the game more enjoyable, it would indeed be good to talk(write). the best thing would be chatting through a microphone, but thats when it gets complicated, since not all players use english as a primary language, which results to pronaunciation difficuties and misunderstandings. im not sure if we should take NPCs, atleast im only going to control my stalker. lastly, it would be all the better if we would make some tactical desicions instead of just walking and killing everyone in sight. also, no prebuffs/cheese in battles where the characters could NOT know that there would be a battle. thats just my opinion though.

I would love the chance to play online with others, I do not like the NPC's in the game much, adored Xan in the first one, I have got as far as chapter 4, but only as far as to land on the island and get killed repeatedly by a setup ambush of things my weapon on my theif could not hit. So I am not an expert to Baldurs Gate 2 but have explored almost everywhere before Chapter 4. I have a friend who will most likely want to join in with us, since we have both got broadband now and can play multiplayer and are both looking for some people to role play with, only drawback is I do not have TOB, I would like to play a thief or assassin, and have stats similar in the way that Raistlin mentioned. Reply to this and let me know what you think cheers [img]smile.gif[/img]

otherwise it would be great, but you cant play if you dont have ToB. Not that we wouldnt let you, you just need to have everything exactly the same, meaning game, version and possible mods. sorry

Hmm ok, then what if I order TOB today?

I could get it in a few days.

<font color=gold>then it would be ok. just remember to get the latest patch and baldurdash. which reminds me, you do have the latest patch and baldurdash dont you Waverider? if not, could you please download it from here

the official ToB patch can be found here

i agree it should be best if we all had tob but if some doesnt has it
then we could see mayby we all deinstall but i think it will depends
but if your willing to buy it [img]smile.gif[/img] well then i see no problem ...

As I have mentioned before, I have neither ToB or any patches. Which of these said patches should I download?

yes, i guess that would be a choice aswell. we could also de-install just for a while and then re-install after Aliyah L'bliss gets ToB. this way we could start as soon as possible.
