Mulitplayer Problem Update
Posted: Tue Jan 18, 2011 7:34 pm
This morning there were reports from players that they could not access their Multiplayer games. When they logged onto the server all they would see under My Games is the text: Axis - Sov -
We've discovered why this has happened and are working to correct it. Slitherine altered the information their server sends out and our game is reading it as an error. There is a fix that we can make at our end, but since we're in the middle of testing other changes for the next beta patch, I can't say how fast we can put up a beta patch and how fast we can put up an official patch. We are waiting to hear from Slitherine if they can roll back the way there server is working in the case of War in the East so that it only sends the info it used to send. Unfortunately the critical person may be unavailable until tomorrow.
So for the moment Multiplayer games are on hold. We're sorry for the inconvenience and will work hard at getting this resolved ASAP.
