Hi Gaga
Pure assumption Due to "online content" the publisher is the one usually responsible. Legally though permission would be needed I would think for HL to allow CoD users "online content" access through the software. Past experience with IL2 series showed the UBI servers were not up to the job and everyone used the Hyperlobby instead. There was I would imagine an agreement with Oleg and Jiri, (but not sure about UBI) to allow the Hyperlobby exclusive use as the servers at UBI died off. Also There was talk of a online war for CoD with players stats etc recorded in a world wide database as a Pay to Play campaign, this was sometime ago and I'm not sure if this is still a viable offering in SoW. .

Besides HyperLobby there used to be others.All Seeing Eye,X-fire,Gamespy Arcade.These all were lobbies of sorts.I think only X-fire survives.
ASE(All Seeing Eye) had better sorting and details about the current maps being used by the server.Also a more accurate player count and location of the server.But there was not a chat.Much harder to set up a coop. Gamespy Arcade to me was a pain. X-fire was ok but lacked the 'friendliness" of HyperLobby. In the early days of IL2,on the multiplayer screen,there used to be a "play at Ubi.com) button. As mentioned by KG26_Alpha their servers at the time were not up to it.For that matter their website was a loading disaster.They had trouble keeping the website going let alone servers. I am not sure if Ubisoft wants to tackle that problem again. I think I saw somewhere(I can not back this up) that the game would have an ingame browser.(Like ROF) Whether or not COD will work with HyperLobby Jiri will not know until he gets a copy.Some games that have been requested to get rooms on HyperLobby will just not work.

Knock your socks off
Last year, the year before? The devs asked for wild events that took place during the battle that would make you say wow.
Well, they have implemented two in the game. Great little write up. CANNOT WAIT FOR THE GAME!

Hyperlobby essentially saved the online aspect of IL2. I remember flying with the old UBI interface. Or rather not flying much with it... It was horrible.

Well Hyperlobby has been "free" to use for over 10 years, so don't forget to use the donate button in the middle of the HL screen
It will be interesting to see some online gui screen-shots, it would give a clue to the hosting format a little more. . Last edited by KG26_Alpha; 02-10-2011 at 08:00 PM.
