Matrix Games Forums

I've never played any of these type games in multiplayer mode. In a sentence or two, can anyone enlighten be how it will/might work? Also, is "multi" two, or can a bunch of players play in a multigame?

Thanks for any replies,

For this game it is two.. as I have not played this game MP I hope it has a turn review to see the oponenets moves... inside the fow buffer.. you open the email and load turn play send all very rutine

It would make no sense if one couldn't see enemy moves as u wrote

some enemy moves of course! haha
I am really impressed by the simple, as opposed to monster games like wite etc, and how well the AI does!!! really something and 2 player will be fantastic.. so excited

I still remember our Commander Great War Games Freeboy. I look forward to trying take you on in Multiplayer. I played SC1/2 since 03 so you better sharpen your bayonet.

I think this may be the best 2 player game for fun factor, but we will see, I am in recovery from a sevear illness and have today, and perhaps for a bit, a great deal of time to send and recieve turns..
Prepare for the unexpected!

Is there any news on this? It will be THREE MONTHS since the game launched tomorrow...it WOULD BE REALLY nice to have multiplayer soon.

Just put it out here for all of us as a beta patch. I'm sure plenty of people will help test it.

I persuaded my boss to buy this game and promised it would be ready to play soon. Now I am worried he will start making unfavorable comparisons with my performance at work.

Hello

What is the problem with getting multiplayer up and running? It's been 3 months since the game was released and it was promised within "weeks" of the release of the game.

Apologies everyone, between getting quite sick, the holidays and then some technical issues, this has taken longer than even I would have preferred but on a more positive note we should have something soon as it is just wrapping up on our end.

I appreciate everyone's patience and apologize again for the delay.

your are a welcomed and appreciated source of joy here, get well be well my Friend

Hello Hubert.

I am with the rest of the folks posting here that health comes first. But I will hazard to ask based on your reply here what does soon mean? What is the technical issue that needs to be fixed? Surely multiplayer is not something new and difficult for Slitherine or Matrix to make operational? What is the issue really?

Unforeseen technical issues on my end (having my code and saved game files play nice with the PBEM++ server) that unfortunately took time to resolve, but all sorted out now which finally allowed us to move forward.

I feel your pain! Software-hardware integration can be a real bee-otch to remedy, the reason all my hair fell out![:D]
