 ===== DRM Mechanics Via Master Servers =====
-Depending on the game, the access to the master server can be free, e.g. for [[Star Trek - Voyager Eliteforce|Star Trek: Voyager Elite Force]]. Some games, however impose a kind of access control of the clients to the server. E.g. [[Unreal Tournament 2004]] requires the game to prove it is run with a not black-listed [[CD key]]. If the client fails to pass this test, no servers are sent back to the client.

 ===== Replacement Servers =====
-As games heavily benefit from this concept (no manual entering of already known IP addresses, no bookmarking required), for some games the loss of >>their<< master server (e.g. the [[publishers|publisher]] decides to shut them down permanently) means the end of convenient multiplayer (or the end of multiplayer altogether). This makes clear, that having some sort of backup or fall back option may be the last means of keeping games alive. For some games there are replacement servers available. One example is [[https://333networks.com/]]. Currently (2022-02) they support [[https://333networks.com/frequentlyasked#newgames|14 different games]].
