battle.net games worked well enough on dialup if you had a decent enough connection. I played lots of quake 2, delta force 2, warcraft 3, and even counter strike source on dial up. By the time TF2 came out we had rural high speed though

how's the best way to play with others online nowadays?
I can't believe they patched diablo 2 to work to this day online but not this or WC3

I used to play as a kid but quickly learned to just play the stupid custom games with auto spawning units and stuff. Like Risk or Gundam maps.

Mostly for skirmish games and the occasional more casual 2v2 and 3v3 - iCCup
For hardcore 0-2135 loss ratio and playing Koreans - Fish

Both are fairly competitive servers.

Not a whole lot of other options, I'm afraid. You might have some luck with UMSes if you just show up at your favourite online community and ask if someone wants to play over GameRanger.

battle.net is down now? I remember playing wc3 like 6 months ago :(

Some people are not meant to be good at things.
