alters the default settings to lower settings and turns EAX off, this will then
allow you to boot up the game and tweak the options for your machine.

VI MULTIPLAYER INFORMATION

Q: My Multiplayer Server is too slow when hosting a MP game?

A: General rule of thumb for hosting faster multiplayer games is that the better the computer you are hosting it on, the better the game will run. Another alternative for running faster multiplayer games is to use the Dedicated Server function within the game. This allows you to serve a game for others to play, but you will not be able to play on this machine, only host the game. This option is in the "Create Game" server section or once you have selected your options you can choose to run a dedicated server from the windows start menu, again selecting this will make the server faster as there is no game engine whatsoever running in the background. As well as this another thing that will restrict the speed of the multiplayer game is the bandwidth of the line you are playing the game on, the faster the bandwidth the faster the game will be.

Q: I can't join internet games and people can't join my internet servers?

A: You will need to check that your firewall (if you're running one) is setup to allow Chrome through it, the ports that need to be opened for this are ports: 2048 and 2049 for the master server and 2176 is the game server by default, although this can be set in the server settings section of the game.

Q: Can I sort internet servers?

A: Yes - choose 'server filter option' to sort game servers, or click on server name, ip, ping to sort by these fields.
