What port numbers do I need to open in order to host?
I'm pretty sure the entire point of ImpulseReactor (the multiplayer client) is that you don't need to open ports. Ever.
Interestingly, if you watch the game hosting screen carefully you'll see that about 10% of the time, a port number will appear. The rest of the time, it says something about hosting on port 0. No idea what this means
port 0 is just a bug in the game not properly showing the port, when it says 0 it really means 6073.
but yes, Gnats3 is correct. ImpulseReacter should take care of everything for you, just let DG through your firewall and you should be all set.
At each fresh start of the game, port will be corretly displayed. If you host ans then rehost or do a game and then host again, it will show as 0.
There are many great features available to you once you register, including:
