Fuck, there goes the command&conquer servers.
Looking at that support list, any C&C games XWIS doesnt have rights to host servers for are fucked regarding non-lan MP.
But muh Dawn of War :(
Oh man I've got to start cramming in as many MP games as possible on it before it goes.
The original halo on pc still has an active community of players, that's gone too.
So this is how it ends.
Command & Conquer, Halo 1, Medal Of Honor Allied Assault, it's been good.
Fucking christ, there is still a lot of people who play older games online that use gamespy.
I am sure there will be some solution...hopefully. This is 1000 times worse than GFWL shutting down.

For PC games, there's the option of (unofficial) master servers and game patches. For console games, you're boned.

Tunngle is amazing for this. I recommend it.
When this goes down, is there any way to host a server? Like Rome: Total War or Medal of Honor?
C&C 3 oh no
[QUOTE=LieutenantLeo;44443898]Flight Simulator X???? Nooo![/QUOTE]
the FSX community uses Vatsim for everything nowadays anyway. Theres a reason why it was dubbed "GaySpy"
I'm upset for the sake of halo custom edition. I've played an inordinate amounts of time on all those custom maps especially coldsnap.
[QUOTE=ZyreHD;44443184]I'm surprised how calm you guys are responding to this news. This seems way bigger in my eyes then GfWL. Like there are a shit ton of games that use Gamespy as there multiplayer back-end.[/QUOTE]
hopefully we will have better alternatives
I wish Epic wasn't retarded when it comes to games, and that the steam servers supported UG
I think this is not much a problem for games with developer support, surely they will find a solution. But it's games who's developers have abandoned them that will be screwed by this, and I will say goodbye to my beloved BF2.

WAIT WAIT WAIT... HALO CE?
PLEASE SAY IT ISN'T SO!
I'm gonna miss the multiplayer for Battlefront 2,Republic Commando, and Empire at War.

Goodnight, sweet prince :suicide:
And now we're stuck with the shitty F2P one.
No jedi academy! Damn I will miss that game.
That's Battlefront 2 going too then..
This is a window of opportunity to re-release some of these games using Steamworks. A little work and they could just publish it on Steam, then they get a bunch of extra cash because of the new sales and they get to save their games from extinction.
GameSpy still exists? Wow.
Who played Star Wars Battlefront: Renegade Squadron online? Besides all the hackers, it was a lot of fun.
I'm going to miss it. :(

I love Renegade Squadron.

Unless fixed, this means the servers will go down for games such as Crysis, Battlefront 2, Saints Row 2, etc.[/QUOTE]
Not only that but isn't Arma 2 servers powered by gamespy?
Fuck this means games like America's Army and Medal of Honor Allied Assault won't be hosted anymore RIP.
Halo PC...
:_;7
Titan Quest! NO!
not serious sam :(
