A question for the people who played in beta.

Post by Kaldaur »

I'm on a college network. When I saw the name NCSoft attached to City of Heroes, I became worried. You see, Lineage 2 was also made by NCSoft and they had problems with college students not being able to play through their firewall. Lineage 2 selected port 7777 to send outgoing traffic, and college networks block this port as much as possible because it is the file sharing port. So did anyone hear of problems in beta with college students not being able to log in, similar to the problems experiences in L2? I am really looking forward to buying this game; however, I'm not going to waste my money if I can't play it. Thanks for the help guys, I'm looking forward to joining everyone on Victory.

Thanks for the update Aranuil. If anyone has experienced problems on college networks, let me know; otherwise, I'm eagerly awaiting Wednesday.
