[quote who="JagerJack" reply="17" id="2208515"] Gears of War 2 comes to mind. The game has been out since November, yet as of February(the last time I played it before giving up) the multiplayer still has more problems than Demigod. In any case, I haven't been having many problems. As of the latest patch, however, it seems that when someone ragequits half of the time everyone gets disconnected from each other, resulting in a match against the AI.[/quote] <p

Sigh, still down.
Watching the video, great good it will be done soon, I still wonder why it wasn't done earlier but /shrug, and 4 days early sort of makes it worse to me anyway, and yes I would have pref'd a delayed release for a fully working game(and I count mp connection part of the game when it has a mp focus), not to mention it would have helped the reviews coming out now.
How long was this game in beta? your telling me at no point in beta did they have trouble with people not being able to connect like this? I don't care if its 2 days 2 weeks or a year after release date, This should have been fixed well before release, and oh we had planned to fix it on release day or day before release.....is not an acceptable excuse. They may be working hard to fix it now, but I do find it strange with months of testing this is last thing added? <
Um they released it a day early, 1 day, not a week not a month, 1 day, your telling me if they hadn't the patch would have included this? I think not. Gamestops early release may be to blame with problems on the 13th, 14th or maybe even 15th. but its the 16ths now thats gotten old. But really the final servers should have been up, running and load tested before the release date anyway. Hell they should have done an open beta week before release for load testi
How the Hell? did a game like this get released without at least a autokick system in place to deal with people who can't connect? or at the very least a system for people to vote to kick/admin kick, I don't care if they are working on it now, it should NEVER have been released without it in place. Been trying again for the last 2 hours to play a game(yet again) on patheon and every single freaking time 1 player screws it up. And no imo its not the players fault for no
The totally crap mp system?, unable to kick non connecting people, zip feedback in automatch, so you have no idea if its trying to connect, connecting, or about to load.(after awhile the connecting page vanishs while it still says searching for players) Often people all connecting to each other but lobby not loading, etc etc etc The few games i've played have been fun, but taking 4+ hours to get a game working isn't really imo a finished game when its so focused on mp, this fe
Sort of sucks if this works.
Mine was WOW, they released a mp game with the mp hardly working.
Same, i've played 2 games 1 2v2 other 2v4(with ai's) other then that its wait wait wait wait, can't even alt tab or it crashs. Abit amazed they released it like this really. Also i've been getting alot of slow downs, crashs, pauses. this on a i7 920, gtx280....... Not impressed.
If your going that way you should have made it possible for people to join while playing, or give the planets to players allies, Not end up having teams unbalanced. I really doubt anyone find that good. "They are in multiplayer to player humans and if the humans all drop they want the game to end not have to fight through a bunch of AI." I agree with this, but am not talking about ALL dropping just 1 player, if worried about all humans dropping just make option for game to en
"The AI doesn't take over for dropped players." Lol? that explains why dropped players did nothing, and is a rather at least imo stupid(and since I think every rts since starcraft lets ai takeover I can't be alone on this) thing to do considering how often people end up dropping, having a bad ai as allie is better then going 1v2(esp. since buildings/planets etc don't explode, can you even force fire on planet once owned by allie now disc?). As to odd AI, I was playing advent th
Yup, sins is alot like Pax imperia, though I miss not being able to design ships.
They will release it about 5 min after I log for the night....
Anyone know when its released?
