Re: Filipino Questions (filipinos only)

well, you can rarely see nethopia with war3 players on them nor cs players. ragnarok online is the only game(most) they play there. I found a good lan shop near shang ri-la but only few plays war3 could someone help me out?

Re: Filipino Questions (filipinos only)

Hmm... Try Netopia, Then play battle.net..
There are many (die-hard WC3) Filipinos there.
CS and Warcraft is dying, Online games are taking over(Even if i dont like it, I hate online games.......)...
The sharp fall came after CS1.4,
WC3:frozen Throne has made it(WC3) survive a bit.

Also try: Stratego, If you study at UST then
try playing at Warpath, Netopia, etc(the place is littered with this)...

Re: Filipino Questions (filipinos only)

The framerate is fast at netopia, They also have DSL for i-net(256Kbps PLDT line).... (all of their computers are sure to be AXP1700+)
So you'll not lag that often..

And the blackouts? They're gone, Thanks to FVR and his IPPs.....

Re: Filipino Questions (filipinos only)

before? jellyfish

well cybervaldez, netopia is the best lan shop that is known... unless that there is a local shop around you that offers fast internet connection and fast PC... pero alam ko, hindi pa rin pwede mag battlenet sa netopia... tama ba ako?

Re: Filipino Questions (filipinos only)

well one reason is that PC games popularity are declining because of the online game Ragnarok...

on Warcraft... di gagana yung expansion kase pirated yung WC3 software nila...
