Network Play
Silver Knights has developed a cult following online. Silver Knights uses DirectPlay as network method. Fan-based websites have developed a player-supported community. Network play typically requires additional technical setup. Support pages are available from the developer to instruct new users, but such pages only instruct according to specific routers and firewalls in Japanese. Therefore, for users who do not speak Japanese, setting up a router can be difficult. Many users elect to utilize Hamachi, a freeware VPN client, to directly connect to other players. However, players not utilizing Hamachi cannot connect to Hamachi-enabled host, and vice versa. Recently players use Comodo Easy VPN as an alternative to Hamachi, which is unlimited in network size unlike the former.
