Does it have LAN coop? Or do I have to be loged into their server to do this?

Thanks

I'm pretty sure it did - at one point I remember planning a (Hamachi) LAN game with my brother.

I am pretty sure that it did, and I am also pretty sure that it doesn't have any server checks.

I started playing Sacred 2 recently, I"ve logged about 10 hours a day and leveled to 50 in ~3 days. Playing lan with 1 copy of the game - if you want to play on their servers you'd need 1 copy per computer. Pretty solid game though also buggy as hell even with all the patches. Crashes very often on my pc but hardly ever on my 2nd pc.. At least it has a quicksave button.

I'm enjoying Sacred 2 as well, although I don't get to put nearly that much time into it. The only time I have ever had it "crash", is when I quit the game--sometimes it doesn't exit properly, and Vista throws an error. But I've never had it actually crash during the game. Might want to check out that computer that it is crashing on.

Maybe your OC has something to do with it heh.....

Definitely not the overclock. I know some people were saying the game didn't like sli so I disabled it, and it actually seems to run better (solid 60 fps) since but I'm not sure if that's due to using 1 card or because I had accidentally recorded 60gb of video from fraps before that time as well. Still crashes a lot though. If it were the overclock I'd be having blue screens, memory dumps, and problems with other intensive games/programs, which I'm not/haven't since i overclocked ~4 months ago. I've updated my video drivers as well with no effect. The game does crash occasionally on my second pc, but its like once every 10 hours on that pc and once every 45 minutes on mine.

Unless Sacred 2 is doing something to my cpu that occt, prime95, crysis + expansion, l4d, aoe3, bf2142, TQ, D2, EE, wc3, ut3, supcom + fa, ra3, etc are not doing, I think its safe to say its not the overclock thats the problem.

I figured out how to play with more than 2 players on lan with 1 copy of the game, basically getting around the DRM, so I figured I'd post here for you guys. The only way I could get 3 computers in a game together when it only lets you have 2 computers active with one cdkey, is to enter the game on computers 1 and 2, have one computer use the licence rovoker program from the official website (while already in the game), and then activate and enter the game on the third computer. You could do this for as many computers as you want I imagine. TiduZ 1, DRM 0.
