new beta patch question

This exciting new release is a faithful adaptation of the renowned Conflict of Heroes board game that won the Origins Historical Game of the Year, Charles Roberts Wargame of the Year and the James F. Dunnigan Design Elegance Award, as well as many others!

Designed and developed in cooperation with Uwe Eickert, the original designer of Conflict of Heroes, and Western Civlization Software, the award-winning computer wargame studio, no effort has been spared to bring the outstanding Conflict of Heroes gameplay to the computer. Conflict of Heroes includes an AI opponent as well as full multiplayer support with an integrated forum and game lobby. To remain true to the core gameplay of the board game, the PC version is designed to be fun, fast and easy to play, though hard to master. The game design is also historically accurate and teaches and rewards platoon and company-level combined arms tactics without overwhelming the player with rules.

new beta patch question

Post by Byeohazard »

I have tried to download it about 4 times but the internet up here in the boonies can be rather spotty. No luck so far. I may try again but was wondering a couple things. Will the beta patch work with others online? I do not think I am going to play the tourney but what patch are they using? Also I may end up waiting for the BETA to go official and was wondering "about" how long that may be. The answers to these questions will help me descide if should I try to do another download witht e official or BETA patch.
Thanks in advance!

I have also tried to download the patch 6 times from two different computers with no luck. It times out just before it finishes and gives me an error message. Then I lose the whole download. I think there must be something wrong with the Matrix servers. Same thing happened when I tried to download the demo. I finally went to a mirror site and the demo downloaded fine.



After playing around some more, I found that if I use Google Chrome instead of Internet Explorer to download the patch it works. Guess Internet Explorer is incompatible with Matrix servers?

try using a download manager like Getright, that will allow a full file download despite disconnects.
