I LANed Duke the other day (Yay it works) I noticed a slight delay in shooting and was wondering what network protocal it was using. Should I assume IPX for now and TCP later down the road?

It uses UDP.

IPX is dead. you can safely uninstall that, unless you play old games like Red Alert 2 that should have been updated to TCP ages ago.

Damn it took me ages to configure Red Alert 2 And Tiberium Sun to play over a network! :twisted:

hell yes, that was a mess with IPX, but compared to play Red Alert2 over serial-link or modem it was easy... :wink:
and at least, with IPX you don't have troubles because of firewall and dhcp settings :lol:
