Greetings.

I absolutely LOVE this game's multiplayer. I thought its the best in the world, really, when it just came out. Unfortunately, died out pretty fast in computer clubs (internet caffe's you call them) of Russia.

Now i never ever thought that it would still be played online!

I'd love to join!

However, there is a problem: serial number.
You might guess, there is just ZERO chance to buy legal copy of C&C:R in Russia. It NEVER was sold here! Only pirated copies were ever in shops those days.
And this game is not available as digital download, like, at all. Googled for half an hour.

Now, i found out some XWIS site following a tutorial on wiki, that says "dont have a serial - buy one from us" and then paypal offers me to buy a 10 euro ACCOUNT from XWIS...
Is it not a fraud, right? What am i buying then? What is this "account"? Do i receive a serial for every game XWIS server supports? Or what? How do i install my game if i buy from them - from TPB with a keygen?

Second problem: i wouldnt hesitate to pay for this great game if i would be sure its working, i mean, there are still people online, ping is good, game is playable for me (i dont know if servers are in USA, Europe or whatever, so dont know what latency i'd have). I dont want to pay 10 euro and find out that i cannot play it anyway since its in USA and my ping is over nine thousand. Or that there is like 3 people online tops and they're in USA so theyre on when i sleep. Or something.

Is there any tiny option to check before i buy? Like, can i keygen a serial, use it to check, then buy a real one if it works? Or i absolutely have to pay for something that might be absolutely useless to me?

And i also got a question: Is this XWIS the place everybody plays C&C R multiplayer? Maybe i'm mistaken and there is some other common hideout? ITs just too hard to find any information about that, really, there are news about recreation of renegade on unreal engine, about total conversions, but no info about what people actually play out there and how...
