game-play.net is a small, private service: we host game servers in France and Germany and keep them running around the clock. If you are a member, your connection details were provided when you joined — this page is about using them.
Addresses are never published
What you need
- A member sign-in for game-play.net.
- The game itself, installed (see the store link on its page).
- A few minutes the first time — after that it is plug and play.
Connecting, step by step
- Sign in. Your session details (server entries for the titles you play) are available after sign-in. They are tied to your account and should not be shared.
- Pick a title. The library shows where each game runs — France, Germany or both — and how many servers and slots each location offers. The status page confirms everything is online.
- Add the server to your client. Use the entry from your session details: a server name and a favourite list, not an address you have to remember. Most games let you keep it saved for next time.
- Join and play. If the room is full you will get a clear "server full" message — check the other location or come back shortly. That is the whole ritual.
Capacity and status
Every title lists its capacity, and the server status page shows all locations at a glance. We do not overbook the rooms: what the status page says is what you get. If a server is restarting, give it a minute — the page reflects it and it clears quickly.
Backup: virtual LAN for the few titles we cannot host
A handful of LAN-only titles are not worth a hosted instance, and for those we fall back to a private virtual LAN (Hamachi) between members. This is a backup path only — if a title is listed on the status page, use the hosted server instead. The details live in the virtual LAN guide.
