grr too bad i won''t be able to get the book just for the MMORPG code before a week and a half but sounds great!
Sounds like that book is going to be worth getting to me. I will wait for reader reviews before buying though (not that I don''t trust you or anything, but I don''t have too much money at the moment).
Heh, they put André''s name on the cover much larger than yours, well I guess it sells copies to have someone the public knows on there
. I''ll probably get a copy in the future, but I''m broke right now, still trying to upgrade my hardware

even though it''s not coming out till June and i should have my netcode done by then i might still get this since it''s the only book that describes winsock for games and plus i may be able to optomize my code with it. Sounds really cool thanks LostLogic for writing it.
I assume you are not Andrew but that other guy Todd. j0
I would buy it just for the multiplayer / online stuff. Its pretty cheap too; not $60 like every other programming book out there

Well it should sell well if you think about that there is no book out there on Netcode for games!
