Hi, my buddy and I tried playing some C&C tiberian sun and we both had pings of 1000 and we couldnt connect to play each other. We both have cable. Back in the day we used to play it on 56K and didnt have much trouble connecting. We both tried restarting the game, our computers, turning off our firewalls, but nothing worked, any ideas?

I never got Tinerian sunto work with anythign but 56k, i think its not designed forthe newer os or newer internet...upgrade and get red alert2 or somthing...just as much fun and will run a lot better. tiberian sun is a great clasic gae thoguh. If you can get together, tib sun also worked well with a cable conecting the 2 comps serial ports in null mode
