OK I guess I'll join the HELP I'M SO CONFUSED, area here. Okay I downloaded the client updated to Version 1.8.9 which seem to take forever but I did it. When I double click on the LaunchNet7 short cut it takes me to a screen with proxy with two different(I have the Custom selected) servers to choose from, states its online,and the port information. I select play from there. It takes me to a splash intro screen and watch the intro into the game with space ships flying around blhaa blhaa blhaa.
I also notice it seems to run a DOS screen in the background and if you accidentally hit any key it will kick you out of the into movie and back to desktop.Even if I do not touch anything and watch the complete intro, it finishes goes back to desk top then after a few moments the DOS screen disappears as well. I have no ideal of what I am doing wrong. I get no errors and it looks like its launching like any other game when you start it but then that's it. It just disappears and goes away?????
