Don't forget that Turok 2's multiplayer ran on Gamespy and that service is no longer around. I'm sure there is some third party that made a compatible service but I'm not sure they would use it.
Hi, welcome on forum : )
If I may, I playing Turok 2 Mp, to this very day. if you wondering, most of credits going to five people who make perfect emulation of old game spy. Look here: http://www.qtracker.com/master-gamespy.php So on end of day, only IP that gspylite searching is changed, so with small effort, all stays same for us, users, retro gamers. : ) I honest hope that steam, gog and 3th place version will have same MP, so player base is one, not splitting there, please! Would be very bad that steam have own MP mod, and gog none. Solution is to use established system: qtracker server is free and stable over 2 year now, for emulation of original game spy. If they (team) can improve MP, then it would be adding protection, like kicker or tool to remove/ban bad people try game client exe, try command console. Nothing more, nothing less to fix there. Have nice day, guys.
You dont need any emulation of gamespy for this to work. You just change the master server and kaboom. Changing some configuration is not in any way emulation.
We talk about 2 dif subject now. Remaking (but this is remastering here, so why invent something new, instead using what is established, and on that way save time and give game sooner , to players?!) of MP system is up to dev. to do, if they see purpose, but then it is something else (could be bad and good, like I said if they split player base with that new MP system). I just stated about current system of server-client. And there is emulation, because server query's must be processed by outside server, of course, and if you read that info from qtracker link, how they got all important data from original game spy supervisors, will be clear what type of emulation it is, to. Hard work is done there! Tnx Ron M. once more, for keeping T2 MP alive! : )

I'm not sure if there could be better news. If Turok 1 and 2 are set in stone to release. This is so awesome, I hope this has a mp and a level editor. It would mean people could play on there own new maps holy! Doom and Duke fans are spoiled now its time for us to be

I agree with it , duke, but most people like to show own status to others, in fact, they would 'kill' for that ability muhaha  But here is how one other thing could be pulled: if we connect empty game-client, which have automatic bot-counter, which is controlled remote, from specific online site, same website where ranking list is, admin could set random events for bot to count, example: count when some1 shot 100 people with grenade launcher and you get title 'grenademaster' on that ranking list for next 24 hours.... So I would like unique ranking list which gives every1 equal chances to compete in every aspect of own skill/preference, of T2 MP, and status, which changes how people change own preference in showing skill : ) So counter per specific day would be most fair imo. And if possible to add private status for x player, in same time to have player base, I think it will be very hard, considering 2 facts: people like to change nick and T2 MP not have any account for tracking. Well. Hard to balance here, positive/negative, to force people on something... I just wish basic functions in dedicated, server files: kicker by voting or remote admin (I join on friend's server and I can control some parameters, like kicking without voting, locking server because private thing on x time) or anti cheat ( which would be easy to implement, considering that real auto aim is easy to detect, visual and kick person, but silent, like just a bit increasing size of body of opponent is almost impossible to detect, but new game exe<-> server checker system, would do perfect protection for us) And more things to add/mod hehe, hope we get game play mod editor/server editor to change rules of game play of classic game play mods (arena, ctf, rok...) Well, even if we get 0 % of all this, and nd studios does brilliant on other aspects: steam, gog crossover MP, all what T1 got now, to be same done for T2, to keep 9x % of same feel... I think, I will be happy, to play it with right people, online, without any negative critic. Put in, same effort, like I doing now, will be pleasure : ), on end of every game day! FGG's again for all us, I hope!  ))

I think it would be cool to have a personal stat sheet for the mp. Only you can see your stats but it shows you amount of kills, death, and how many were with each weapon. It can be like this heheh making it up yes Turok is hunting.
Turok 2 MP Hunting Statsheet Hunts: 20k Hunted: 2k Shotgun Hunts: 15k Plasma Rifle Hunts: 5k

Seriously, we need to some screens of Turok 2 HD. Considering how great Turok DH HD look , I can't wait for some pics of T2. And yeah, hopefully some online mp, that would be great.

So this game was mentioned to with the Night Dive Studios announcement I think it deserves its own thread they wouldn't of announced it if they didn't have plans for it in the making. I know all the hype is with Turok EX for the moment but don't forget this was mentioned to. Turok 2 has a good SP and a good MP to go with it. I think this games mp could easily belong on GOG and steam. I for one would be really excited to see both T1 and T2 because its a packaged deal here there the most similar out of all the Turok games. I think we can just call it T2 EX well anyways I thought it would be okay to talk about this one now to  Hopefully we get some images or some news on it soon. I made this just for fun for it   After all its already in the data base for steam as well. https://steamdb.info/app/405830/subs/
