    Is it just driving the vehicles around or can you play using normal weapons and the grappling hook?

    hey is the mod still in beta or is it finished?
    and can anyone comment on the stability, "funness" and stuff?

    what do you exactly do? are there missions or do you just run around destroying stuff?

    Check their Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/jc2mp

    They usually have tests every weekend, where thousands of players attend.

    It's works fine, sommetimes it glitches, but hell it's JC2 what do you expect? :D

    It's still in beta or w/e they call it, just follow around I'll post a update the next time they'll have a test ;)

    They usually post a link to download the files required to play online, on their forums and on Facebook.

    I'll update this thread ASAP when there's something going on next time ;)

    I would seriously buy JC2 again just to play it Multiplayer. Thankfully, I just need to redownload it on Steam. Easily one of my favorite games of all time.

    Well i quickly looked into it, but didnt have much fun, everyone was just destroying the taking-off jets at the airports and you couldnt really hijack a moving obstacle, also pvp was off. All things that were possible in previous betas, so I've heard.

    But its a good start

    Yes, they've implemented some new things in this patch and removed the spawning commands too.

    I reckon they will implement commands to spawn everything in the game + PVP + teleportation.

    Have fun :)

    It indeed would!

    There is a lot going on the forums! If we are lucky, people might be able to host their own servers! Imagine going on a rampage with your friends against the AI's with your bomber aeroplanes :p

    Also there might be support for the Single Player mods in the Multi Player :D

    22,420 players, 383,875 deaths, 303,011 messages and 313,417 teleports over 48 hours!

    Beta Test officially over :D The server even crashed for some at some point, but got fixed very quickly.
    - The forums are currently down, I suspect overload from members, almost more than 1-2k more members just got signed up

    Thanks to everyone participating :D best test ever (hoping for a better one next week or so)

    edit: website back online http://www.jc-mp.com/forums/index.php/topic,638.0.html ;) enjoy
    - notice the airports and big cities eaten up by players haha

    That's just a bummer! More than 20k unique players joined since I made this thread (not that I take the credit for anything, just stating the rise of this mod!)

    The servers are so much fun now, loads and loads of people, although the chat is going insane :p

    But yeah I will probably not be able to play the next 2 month though.. :( work is upcoming so I know the feeling

    Ha, had a blast on this last night for 30 minutes until it crashed on me. Total Craziness, hooked up on someone's roof and went car surfing for a while before hauling them out of the car and killing them. Spawned over the airport, as I fell to the floor a jet flew past - grapple-hooked onto it, rode the wings, then hauled the pilot out, before then being blown out of the sky. Spawned at the large Dish, tried to catch someone up skydiving, caught them, and admiring my own technique forgot to look out for the floor... splat. spawned again at the dish, bought a tank, and went round in circles blowing everyone up... mentalness. There was about 900 people online on the server I was on at the time.

    It's a lot of fun, the map is massive and surprisingly this mod is more stable than the multiplayer in some AAA games.
