I have been playing with patches for ages and am curious about Bypassing and using 1.11 patches.
Wondering if its worth doing and have a couple questions:
1. Are ther public lobbies, meaning that I can just force host and got to Find Game and others will join my lobby? Or do I have to speciffically invite others?
2. About how many are on bypass? ~300 or so?
3. To bypass with a patch, I just put the 1.11 patch of my choice on my PS3, Delete default_mp.ff, And run the patch blocker?
Thanks for the help.
1. If you want to go in public on the bypass, put on force host and join free for all, in about >5 mins people will join ur lobby. Free for all is basically the unofficial gamemode of the bypass. Just be warned: in public matches, 99% of the people there are trying to get into a CL lol
2. Hard to say but it's defiantly more than you would think. I guess it depends on the time of day. Also the thing that says the number of players online is the number of people on 1.12. I would estimate there are about a few hundred going in & out of public ffa, and a few hundred going in and out of private matches. I'd estimate at any given time, there are prob 5-10 different games of zombieland happening in private matches. Also if ur gonna host on the bypass I recommend making a new account just for bypassing, and adding only bypassers. That way you will have no trouble filing a lobby w/ people, even on the bypass.
3. There is a public but probably a lesser known way to bypass, that doesn't use RFOM or patchblocker:
(on 3.55/3.41):
1. Update to clean 1.12
2. Delete the default_mp.self
3. Put in a 1.11 patch
You will be bypassed.
