Jump to: navigation , search. Up to Worms Knowledge Base. Views Page Discussion View source History. After establishing your connection to the internet, boot up Worms. From your main Worms Armageddon screen, you can access Wormnet by clicking on the bottom left hand square, with the Worms on PC's graphic. This will take you to the Network Game screen. Select "Internet Game" by clicking the image at the top right.
You'll now be offered to choose a server. Note that you'll only be given one choice of server. Choose it anyhow by double clicking it. If you have done this correctly, you'll now see a screen asking you to login. Double click this option. You get to type in a name of your choice. The password is irrelevant as this feature was disabled years ago; only your name matters.
Type in your choice of name and random characters as the password. Seconds later, you should hear a little brass solo and you'll see Wormnet on the screen. Welcome to our home. People on the Internet can't see you, and you don't get an Avatar on Wormnet.
Therefore your name is the only thing that reflects your personality. Some names are more effective than others of course; calling yourself gothicsadist might get you some strange looks, but it's a good name if it reflects who you are. My name, Arc'engal, is a standardised one that I use everywhere except Gamefaqs, since you can't freely change your profile name and karma is non-transferable.
It's a pun on archangel, as if you hadn't guessed, made to sound like a name from a certain video game series. If you have a standardised name, use it. More than likely, no-one else will have thought of it, and it will remain your unique identifier. Calling yourself after your initials is also a fairly common practise. Note that Wormnet does not allow spaces. For example, if you belonged to the Imperial Command clan, like me, you would add xICx. Be warned though: using tags when you aren't a member of that clan is not going to win you any friends.
Don't even give yourself a tag with random letters because you want to make it look like you're part of a clan. There are so many you've probably added yourself to a clan, regardless of randomness. Also, note that people's first indication of your playing skill is your name. Here's a tip. Don't call yourself "Jim" or any similar "first-name-screenname".
This just shows lack of imagination and, probably, lack of playing skills. Something more imaginative will show you in a better light. You can use special characters in your name on Wormnet, but to do so you require a certain program. Changing your name every time you go on Wormnet means people won't remember you and they might not remember you anyhow but even more so with rapid name changing! Anything goes is located in the top part of the screen, along with "Party Time" and "Ropers Heaven".
Now you should see a screen comprising of 3 windows: the huge main one, which is the chat window, and the two smaller ones, which show the games available and the people online. There is also a small bar underneath the chat window. That's where you type in what you want to say to Wormers worldwide. If you want to connect to someone else's game, it's easy to do. Look at the screen with the games on it and double click on a game to join it.
Pay attention to the name; if it says "Shoppa" or "Roper" or something, you're going into a specialised game. If it says "no n00bs" and you are new to Worms, please don't go in, as the host only wants people who know what they are doing. Also, if you have installed the beta patch as instructed earlier in this tutorial, the game you select must have a beta sign before it looks like a B.
This indicates that the host is also patched. If you aren't patched and you join a patched game, you will crash. If you are patched and you join an unpatched game, you will crash also.
If it reaches zero the connection fails. Note that if the timer goes past 30 you might as well click "cancel" because either that person's computer has seriously bad lag or they can't host properly.
If your CD drive activates, that's a good sign because it means a connection has been made. After a short download of team names and such like, you'll be taken to the game set-up screen. The second you are on this screen, it's a good idea to type "hi" or some other form of greeting into the chat window. If a player breaks one or more of these rules then that player is the "Cow". The other players on the in-game chat should say "Cow" to notify a break in the rules.
This technique involves letting go of the Ninja Rope so that the player's Worm falls into another Worm causing the latter Worm to be pushed, usually off an edge or into an obstacle.
The player's Worm will also slide along with the pushed Worm, in which if they go off the edge of the terrain, the knocking Worm may use a Parachute so as not to fall along with the knocked Worm. This technique is not an attack. WxW is based upon the same rules as those of a Shopper game, except a lot more skill is required and one must touch a certain number of walls before attacking. RopeRace is based upon a maze-like map containing a start and a finish. The rules for this game are, you must place your Worms at the start, no Rope Knocking Knocking other Worms using the Ninja Rope, either yours or your opponent's and first to the finish wins.
Another version of this is TimeTrial RopeRace, in which you have infinite time to complete the level. Once all Worms have had a single turn, whoever made it to the finish in the least amount of time wins. EXE file to the Game Directory. Game or Patch Questions? Visit FileForums. Magazines Banners.
