the part im curious about is how your SP data is saved to go into MP does it add extra code or something to ur character when u use artifical increases that might be picked up by steams sniffer?

I didn't think steam could ban people from this game since they don't run the servers. I hadn't dared use it online anyway but it's nice to know .
What's wrong with some inf ammo? lol

Either way i'm loving this game, Soldier/Hunter level 24/21

I rolled a soldier, since rifles/shotties are my favorite weapons...however, ALL I've been using are pistols/SMGs and very occasionally a sniper rifle >< I can't seem to find any good shotguns anywhere...kinda sucks.

I managed to connect to a friend of mine just fine...he's leeching wireless from my connect I'm using the land line, he's on my wireless signal, and we just co-op'd for about 3 hours.

so any steam users used the trainer in SP and then taken their character in MP yet without the trainer?

It seems pretty straight forward. Your SP data is saved/loaded as normal when in multipleyer.

When running multiplayer (LAN), the server keeps track of your game data, i.e. you can't run a trainer on a multiplayer server unless you are hosting it.

Using a trainer to max out your XP/skills/money etc in SP seems to work fine when you then use your game in MP.

are you using a steam version? if so do you use a trainer in SP then play MP without it? im just curious cause ive leveled a character in SP only til about 10 using just mega ammo no reload and super health since the data is saved client side that means i can still take him into MP if i wanted without any possible problems arising?

Well if anyone cares, I was finally able to host my own multiplayer game earlier today. The way I did it was to forward the ports from my router to my pc and to open the ports on windows firewall. Works perfectly fine now.

(the ports I have opened are 7777, 28900, 27900, 29900, 29901, 28910, 6500, 9899, 3783, 13139, 6515)

Oh, and you can use your modded char in multi just fine.

Yeah download Tunngle and play with friends for FREEE !! of someone wants to play PM me lvl 45 Soldier Playthrough 2
