New to the OB community, and my time here might be short lived, I have been checking on and off periodically throughout the day but cannot seem to find anyone online to play against. Now, I understand that the active base of players is small (around like 25 I believe from what I've read), but still I would've expected to see at least one person online. Any replies to this would be greatly appreciated.

No, I was browsing a free internet database of free multiplayer online games, and came across Online Boxing. It sounded fun, so I went to the homepage and found out that they had switched from the 2-D format pictured on the database, to a newer 3-D format. So I downloaded the client and Installed it, along with updates. Now, I am sitting in the "Lobby" and there are no players, nor have there been any players online every time I check. Please, don't write me off as someone under a different name, I am just a new player that took interest in this game and would like to play against others in it online.

My advice for you is to play both.

OB2D is the present game with rankings and titles to be won. Most of the people play OB2D. Since the game is old most people are very experienced and level of skill is high. It if fun but also hard.

OB3D is the future. That being said it is still under development and has very small player base. There are no skins, rankings or titles to be won yet. Still you can go and play the game and I suggest you do it as if you do you will have edge over others when OB3D finally "opens" with rankings and titles.
- OB Accounts: Rocky Marciano plus too many alts

- Join Date: 2007

- Status: Retired for now. Logs on every now and then just to troll.

- OB Class: A+++++ Elite and yes you got it right a FIVE STAR Elite.

- Goals: Been there, seen that, done it all so none other than reaching 1000 fights (on an alt) with above 90% win percentage I have been hunting after ever since joining OB2D.

- Titles won: too many to remember

- Title defenses: too many to remember

- Best win streak 132 wins in a row in total.

- Style: Very technical when needed to. Other than that force ko for the win!

- Signature Punch: The Rocky Marciano combo (now also available without french fries).

- Signature Taunt: Letting opponent recover back to full healt before KOing him for good.

- Weakness: Fatny, the king of OB2D

- Career highlights: Been there and done it all but yes there is one little thing that rises above all titles and such: making Reaper quit after I tkoed him 16 times in a row all inside first two rounds. We were supposed to box 100 times

- Quotes: "I just TKoed you 16 times in a row Reaper. What's the matter? Can not make is past first two rounds? Did I make you quit? Why so silent all of sudden? Oh I just made you STFU "

- Stupid nickname given by other players: Mini Fatny.

- Words of wisdom: Styles make fights. Sometimes even HOF caliber fighters lose to inferior boxers due to this fact. Everyone has their rythm and once you get inside that rythm, you will make life hell for that person (in the ring).

- PS. All signatures are stupid.

The reason I think it is Redneck... he signs his name at the end...Redneck does that lol

Whatever...if you are really "Just starting out"...please take my advice...look at all of the other posts in the forum...judge for yourself who the REAL retarded members of OB are...Redneck is just being nice to you now because he needs some allies...he has made a lot of enemies on here!

"John represents the renaissance of OB. John stepped up and filled the vacuum Fatny left behind. Not only his skills are amazing, also his dedication to keep this game interesting and alive. I was there when he first won the title, I was watching over his shoulder when he bullied all competition, I was there when he became a HOF´er. I may not be a great fighter myself, but I do have eye for talent. John is something special, I told him right after he won his first title. John is the spark that became a flame that turned into a devastating fire. Apart from being a great guy he never stepped down from a challenge and always looked to square off against OB´s best to further improve his skills. Many HOF´ers made short comebacks during the year John reigned OB, only to be knocked out by Big Bad John." - Dick E. Boon

"The thing with John is that he's just so extremely accurate, both in offense and in defense. There's some punches I consider myself a master of, like the small hook and the long upper. Well they're useless against John no matter how well you throw them, he just keeps blocking 90% of them and hurting you in the process. Speaking of which...if he hurts you (and he will), you better move your head a lot because he also happens to be one of the best finishers i've ever seen. Basically if you're not extremely good AND creative, you'll end up on the floor. A fine addition to the hall of fame indeed." - Fatny
