Matrix Games Forums

Are you saying the CEO has a plain forum account with less than 100 posts, doesn't know how to delete a post when he double posts, doesn't know the difference between possessives and plurals, doesn't know which words to capitalize and which to leave lowercase, and doesn't use punctuation at the end of sentences? If that's the public face of the company, it explains a hell of a lot about how we got into this mess to begin with.

Come on. [:-]

Redirecting things in a more positive manner; which of the scenarios are least burdened by some of the structural bugs (i.e. convoy) that are out there?

It's a bit difficult to see where the problems lay. You get some reports that folks are able to successfully run through Global war hotseat.

Elsewhere you hear that any such attempt is folly

I am able to proceed with the global war. There are certainly bugs, but except for one bug dealing with peacekeepers, nothing that couldn't be worked around.

I've played one complete Global War game hotseat through M/A 1945.

I'm currently in M/A 1944 of my next Global War game.

Played Hotseat though. I haven't tried netplay at all.

In the spirit of the thread title "chiming in" - I haven't bought this game, but I would if it had AI.

Well, it will be build eventually, since that is the reason Steve started to program this monster. It probably will take a long time to build...

Stevens Agreement has just been extended for the next 10 years

That is a piece of very good news from the CEO of Slitherine, which owns Matrix.

Steve - congratulations for the trust and shown support from the management.
JDM - thanks for the continuity, and letting us know personnally.

Good news indeed.

You seem to be the only one who knew who he was, I thought it was a jokester personally. He should have indetified himself IMO. And what does ten years mean. Ten years to finish MWIF? I do not want to insult the man but he could have presented a clearer picture to all of us. But then again nothing is very clear here anymore [:(]

Hi Asty arent you glad you started this post [:D] Maybe Zar was a little strong on his comment [:(] but good lord Asty that post could have been handled a lot better by JDM, whoever he really is.

Going back to AI / Netplay development, I think if you are new to MWiF (as me) it will take you a while to learn how to play. So my plan is to play solo for a few months until I'm competent with the rules & interface before trying a multiplayer game. If NetPlay is working by the end of the year, that would be ok for me.

Obviously, AI would be very welcome at the moment to learn, but I think Netplay will make the big change in the game.

In my opinion, it's still worthy to get the game. You will get lot's of fun at the moment, and lots more to come in the future as the new features are finished.
