opponents?

Post by kaliyama »

Are people playing each other regularly and not posting here, or what? I'm going to buy this game next week if that's the case.

I'm not sure. I think there are some people who play MP regularly, but its difficult for a small game to get a critical mass that will always have players online. Lack of servers is also a problem.

The persistant server is still somewhat screwy. I am trying to get mine to function properly on a dependable basis.

That's true. There's also some stability and reporting problems with persistent servers

I gave up on multiplayer awhile ago. I checked several nights in a row, even hosted some games. People would play one time, and then split. That, coupled with the many times that I looked only to find no people on-line at all, has led me to believe that until there is some mass retail release there will not be a viable multiplayer component(at least not like you are probably used to).
Single player can be fun, though.

Yes, it's a critical mass issue. Kind of a catch-22. People won't join if there's no players around. A conundrum. [;)]

Scheduled games are probably best

I'd like to play but I can never see a server!

its more community critical mass, once we get the sites up and running, and some key people building a lot of missions stuff will start to come together.
