Well, me and manit0u just tested the new GG client beta, I'm from Canada, he from Poland... before when we used to play, we'd get maybe 200-300 ping, playable but pretty shitty

On the GG client... probably the equivalent of about 20-30 ping... honestly... I was getting no noticeable delay when he hosted.

It was really sweet!

It also works for BW

Hehe, perhaps now I'll get back to playing more

NOTE: You can't register yet if you haven't been invited. Instead when it asks for login/password try
test5/test5 or something like that (some of them may be taken so just try until you find one free).

yes, but a lot better... when me and mani tried hamachi out we noticed a slight improvement, but no where near the improvement of gg client... hamaichi might have improved it from say 250 to 200-225... gg client FEELS like 0 ping but is probably some where around 20-30

strange, hamachi and this gg client should have the exact same result (direct connection between you and mani) in a war3 LAN game. Maybe it just "felt" like 0 ping because you were hosting?
Its really good to see that some people dont let education get in the way of their ignorance

we had one game where i hosted and one where he hosted... i could tell the difference but it was very nominal... not enough to make a difference in a game

and gg client is different than hamachi, hamachi is a direct connection, gg client you connect to special servers designed for this purpose... you still play games over local area network setting and all that though

Does it only work with BroodWar? can it be applied to other games?
If anyone has any serious prayer requests please PM me. Thx.

we were trying it in War3, it works with CS and BW as well, but we didn't try those... some other games too but i don't pay attention to them

to try it out... download it, install

run it, put your account name as test1 password test1

if that doesn't work test2 etc. until you find one that's not being tested

then join a 'lobby' (channel) on the left

then near the bottom right of the UI there's 2 buttons, one is set game path... you do that so gg client knows where to run the game from, then you hit start game beside it... go to LAN, and make a game!

worked for mani and i quite easily... although make sure you're in the same lobby for it to work

edit: and as this is beta, the gg client itself seems a bit buggy, get "error" messages sometimes, kinda annoying, but when you're in the GAME itself, it's fine... hopefully all the UI bugs will be cleaned up soon

Yeah, all this lobby thing etc. is quite confusing (looks very much like mIRC and I hate mIRC) but when you're playing with someone across the ocean without any noticable ping you're ready to forgive anything
I guess soon the battle.net will be deserted as everyone will be using gg-client.

Well the hamachi thing was very good too... almost like playing in a lan so we can't blame this... oO
I wonder how the gg would improve bw even better than hamachi.

i don't want to sound like an ass, but did you not read the thread?

it's a program that allows you to play other people (in games such as BW/CS/War3) with what appears to be zero lag, simulating a LAN environment, which is obviously very beneficial for world wide tournies and stuff... and allows the communities to 'connect' more...

Sorry to hijack the thread Sole but yesterday we did something really crazy together with WaweR, we played some ladder on my comp and in one game we just switched seats every 2 minutes (both playing as a single player), we got quite good oponent (220apm and not bad micro) and raped him despite this switching (even during battles) and different bo ideas (we had only 4 peasants on gold for 2/3 of the game) :D
