MAGIC THE GATHERING!

[Yahzon]

Haven't played magic for a long time, it's all UFS now, but I might give it a try.
I'll try to download the thing tomorrow, as it's getting late.

I stopped the game at 7th edition because of wizard's marketting strategy


I'd love to play again, so please give pm me a link

I played 10 years ago ... how does it work online? How do you deal with rare cards, dual mana fields, ect?

someone serves a game and you connect to it using your ip adresses

also other ppl can connect and you can watch it called sectator mode

as for rare cards its all included you get like 14000 cards in the download its like 99 percent of every card ever made some are missing but those are ones from super old sets no one uses

there is also a deck editor where you make your own deck or use one of the 60 premade decks ! most of the premade decks are theme decks that were released :-)

[WeaponXxX]

[BoneMonkey]

Finally got it installed and a deck built. Anyone want to serve a game. PM me. Here for another 1hr.

 

[BoneMonkey]

I wont be able to play till tomoorw but DrediKnight you can also go to

irc.ircstorm.net on IRC

channel #OCTGN

and find more opponents :-)

how are you liking OCTGN dredi ?

 

[DrediKnight]

Deck editor seems a little clunky. Haven't got to play yet but it'll be nice to play again. Anyone wanna buy my MTGonline cards... Haven't used them for years.

 

[BoneMonkey]

in the deck editor did you use the preconstruction decks ?

 

[Urza]

If you're going to play online, do it right.

magic workstation isnt free and you cant do everything like in OCTGN and you have to download a 3 gb file :-(

have you used OCTGN urza ?

 

[Urza]

magic workstation isnt free
The trial version lasts forever, and none of the limitations affect gameplay. Theres a crack available if the 5 second splash screen really annoys you that much.

and you cant do everything like in OCTGN
The only thing OCTGN has over MWS is support for more than two players in a game. MWS is superior in every other way.

and you have to download a 3 gb file :-(

No you don't.

 

[BoneMonkey]

URZA is it possiable just to download tenth edition card set and play with those ?

 

[BoneMonkey]

Im download magic station nwo and giving it a try if its better we should switch to it

 

[Urza]

URZA is it possiable just to download tenth edition card set and play with those ?

If you mean the card information, I don't believe so. Shouldn't be an issue though, as the entire database is only about 15mb.

If you're talking about the card images, sure. Grab the HQ scans torrent from the MWSData.com forums and just deselect all the other folders. I could upload it somewhere too if you're interested (have all the full scans up to LOR I believe).

 

[BoneMonkey]

fuck then i have to download all the card images which is like 3 gigs

Like I just said, they can be downloaded individually.

 

[BoneMonkey]

ok im going to check it out

now do i have to dowload crops and full ? or just full ?

 

[Urza]

The torrent has both, so you can choose which you want to download.

If you wait about 10 minutes, I'm currently uploading the 10th Edition full scans to SendSpace.
