I used to play by dialing directly to my friend's computer via modem. He only had a 66MHz processor, and I had 100MHz. So if I came at him blasting away with the plasma cannon his machine couldn't render the frames fast enough, and he'd die. So he'd creep around the map with charged fusion cannons to one-shot me.
