Ok, you need to know where the hell you can get Civilization 2, get it from http://www.abandonia.com/games/99/Civilization_2.htm, download it, extract it to a directory and run civ2.exe, then join an internet game and type the I.P Address 84.65.97.164 (Civilization 2 should have a game joining thing, not by I.P address

)

Don't bother hosting one, leave it to Unidentified Assilant

Just because its supposed to be here, doesn't mean other people can't join, so don't give people a hard time because they joined the benheck war and they aren't even here.

Please sticky this

At the Civilization 2 Fantatics Centre you can also get a patch that turns Civ2 into Civ2 Multiplayer Gold Edition

Unidentified Assilant · Sun Apr 24, 2005 9:27 am

No, the top one is the best, but sam needed a new one for some reason, so he got it.

I burnt to a disk to put on my other PC, so I'm trying to install it from that now but having problems, IO'll tell you when I'm done and got a game up.

you dont install it... just put the cd in the drive and copy the civ2.zip or .rar extract it and then double click civ2.exe
