Cant get online in mercs2

It is possible that the servers that are/were responsible for handling online multiplayer have been shut down due to the age of the game.

Hello, the Slim version bring some technical improvements, but the overall game quality is pretty the same. The Slim is smaller and lighter (about 1/4 of the size of its phatty predecessor) in fact. It also has greatly enhanced online gaming capabilities due to the presence of a new Ethernet port, network connection, and phone line. Hope this helps, good luck, Peter

Just when it is ticking, if you have a slim, just tap it against your knee horizontly, and it should work. Sorry if you have a fat ps2, mines a slim, and i'm not sure if this will work in a fat.

well a slim ps2 may not be able to be modded as well as a phat ps2 which can take a hardrive which allows you to store files like ps2 games to play on a softmodded or hardmodded ps2!

Softmods:A softmod consists of modding a device but only its software[data, drivers] and thus its "soft"ware is changed allowing you to play ps2 game files or burned dvd ps2 games. One draw back is the slim ps2s could be softmodded, but you cant install a hardrive so its much harder to mod and almost pointless. You can play burned ps2 games but then a Hardmod is needed to help get past security chips!
You can use a method of putting tape and objects in the way of sensors in the ps2 so the ps2 slim will think the dvd tray is closed when its not and you perform a disc swap. look up ps2 disc swap techniqes.

With a phat ps2 you can simply put the modded files on the hardrive and then install them threw the ps2! look online for websites who can teach you how to get and do this stuff.

HardMod: A Hardmod consists of actually adding a physical chip to the device! this is by far the most task worthy. to be frank i cant install a chip on any device and even with the charts. but people are out there who will actually be able to install a mod chip on your ps2. you can find chips but you need someone to install it. i say find someone on the internet or ads who has the chips and the talent to install it.. costs about 150.00 less or more!

get ur ps2 modded then u can play pirated/burned games.

I've just fixed this problem...
We bought a 2nd ps3 with mercs2 yesterday and had the same problem on the new system, even when using the other copy of mercs2 from my original ps3.
This 100% worked for me;
I loaded battlefield, bad company on the new system and accepted EA's online terms.
Then i started a quick game multiplayer match (don't be surprised if it doesn't connect 1st time as that occasionally happens anyway).
Then i quit bad company, banged in mercs2 and "jus like that" the freeze is gone and you can play online.
I have also read that this works with army of two also but i can't confirm that.
Have fun!!!

if you have the chunky ps2 then go here http://www.ps2fantasy.com/hardware/ps2/online.php

it tells you how to get on line and what you need,
If you have the slim ps2 then you do not need an adapter, look here for a visual guide

you will need a startup disk that should have come with your ps2

if you do not have one then contact sony for a replacement disk or ask a friend if they have one

I hope this helps

i dont think they even offer PS2 online anymore lol

1. Turn off your PS2 console.
2. Get your CAT5 Cable (link varies based on where your router or modem is).
3. Put one end of the cable into the port of the Network adapter (or slim PS2 and PSX) port labeled "Network".
4. Connect the other end in a free port in your router (or on the port on your broadband modem).
5. Turn on PS2.
6. Turn on modem (or router).
7. Put in online game.
8. Go to the online section in the game.
9. Create a network Configuration
10. Load it
11. Create an ID.
