Matrix Games Forums

I've now encountered two bugs thus far into the game.

Sadly, I don't have all the details you will probably need to further address these issues, but I will give you what I can.

Bug 1: At the start of scenario 4, after click the continue button, the screen went crazy, flashing all kinds of stuff with the main screen all a mess and the bottom text box still showing information from my previous game.

Bug 2: (just happened) While playing the "defend Dubrow <sp>" scenario, well into the game I lost a tank, all of a sudden the game froze with a small timer appearing in the lower right corner. This timer would get down to 0 then reset to about 50 seconds and repeat. I click on the NEXT TURN button and got a "waiting for other players to join" (or something like that) mssg. The game then froze. I alt-tab'd out, ctrl-alt-del the game are restarted the scenario, hoping I only lost that last turn...nope, I have to start the scenario from turn 1 all over again.

Sorry I couldn't be more detailed than this, if you need more info that I can possibly provide, ask away.

I also had the countdown timer appear, then re-appear each time I tried to move a unit. I left it for a while until it had stopped counting down, then exited the game (saving as I went). I shut down SP and restarted, and this took me back to exactly where I left off (it had done some strange things to me preferences though).

Hope this helps for any future occurences.
