question about dedicated server

esmiol · #1 08-04-2011, 06:09 PM

hi all,

i just have one question. to make a dedicated server for CLOD. is it like il2 or is it necessary to have a unique licence key and an steam count to make the dedicated server?

i mean if you want to make the dedicated server for your squad and play with them do you need to pay two times the game?

thx for infos

I'm not the best person to answer this as I just went out and bought another copy of the game to do it, but I'm pretty sure you don't have to. Of course, we've also been told that dedicated server files are supposed to be released sometime in the future as well.

Let's hope that's sooner than later.

There is no dedicated server right now as has been mentioned. Best to wait as online play is mostly dead.

Targ,

I don't know why it's been soo low the last couple of days, but I can assure you I've regularly seen 70+ people online. Just wait till tomorrow night me thinks!

Lets hope things pick up, but a dedicated server is going to have to come out hopefuly sooner that later.

If you want to run server on a separate PC you can install Steam on that PC and register new Steam account. You do not have to purchase any game to this account, it can be completely empty.

To patch the server you would need to log off from your empty account and login with your paid account to the server. When patching is complete you do not need your paid account on the server any more till next patch is out.

here are directions
