Online Support (PRO Online)

You can play online without such programs;p, just need to forward required ports on your router if you have one, it might also depend on your ISP if that's not under your control.
Kyhel only says it's lan-only now because he couldn't test it with his net and also probably cause port forwarding is not something typical user would do, through actually it's pretty easy on most routers nowadays, certainly not a hidden feature althrough can be hidden under different names, like virtual servers, port routing or anything alike. For MH series following ports need to be opened:

Code:

27312 - for server
few next for other players
20001,
20002,
20003,
And probably also
10000 - for gathering hall

And no need for extra programs(which might add extra lag? Dunno, never used them;p).

The randomness is a no-no simply because the only widely open server is ColdBird's one and we shouldn't connect to it before everything get's done and fixed. So pretty much everyone now has it's own server and play only with people he invites to, once everything will be finished that'll surely change and hopefully be more user friendly.
