Yes no?

(and then I don't mean a tunnel, just a real line with IPv6 support)

I'm not voting anyway because I bet this'll be active in June or July or whatever.

Then we'll make another poll in June, to see how much has changed.

Nope. I've not got it yet. I'm not sure if anyone in this area or my ISP at all have it.

Are the facebook etc links actually up by the way?, or have they just set up those pages for later?

Google is also ipv6 available. Not sure if everything is available, the frontpage does load though.

Hmm, maybe I'm wrong, but I think Deus Ex and all of the other old games don't support IPv6. So I guess they will all be unplayable within a few years?

Yea I was thinking of that too. How is the ban table working for example?

I meant more like, connecting to servers. Players can no longer connect to them and perhaps not even query the masterserver.

Yea it was an exemple.

I wonder if the player manages to join the server somehow the other stuff that needs IP would get messed up. Maybe player will be able to query the master server, they may update it or something.

They can update the server, but how will they update the client?

Deus Ex v1.113 :B (maybe they do it because it has some good selling days at Steam).

Don't have it according to that site :]

Also it's definitely gonna fuck up on older games yeah, seeing as most games arent expecting an IP at the size of 128bit.

I guess stuff like hamachi will allow people to play some of the old games together though.
