Oldest Online Multiplayer Game Still Kickin

Post by Azimuth »

Question: Is BZFlag the oldest online multiplayer game that's still around? 1993 seems pretty old.

Another one, unless I am mistaken is Doom but 1993 also.

Air Warrior (1987) but now renamed to War Thunder.

It's one of the oldest. Oldest subject to debate/interpretation. Very likely contender for oldest in type/class though.

Nethack is definitely older, although that's an entirely different category
