Can't Access PBEM Game

Post by canuckgamer »

I have tried three or four times today but can't access our PBEM game. I click on multiplayer and log in. It indicates that the log in is successful but then doesn't take me to the game lobby. I have left it for over 5 minutes and no luck. I assume it is the Matrix server again. There is always an issue with the Matrix server.
As I have stated before, I would like the option of players saving moves on their PC and not have to go through the Matrix server. This would also allow players to revert their games back to a prior turn without asking Alvaro to do so to explore "what ifs" as well.
The Combat Mission games that Matrix has from Battlefront offer two options, one through the Matrix server and the second for players to save their turns on their PC's and send moves either by email or a service such as Dropbox. We do not use the Matrix server for Combat Mission Cold War.

That is the hotseat mode. You save the turn and email it off.

It does need to be improved though.
