View Full Version : Problem in multiplayer games with 2 people

When either myself or my friend hosts a multiplayer game of two people (plus the other automatic AI teams) it hangs after the first few "next turn". My definition of hanging in this situation is the next turn button lists "waiting for player" - which makes sense unless both players see the same message and they're the only ones in the game.

The first one-three turns and it hangs. I hosted a public 3 person game (myself included) and the game was running fine - multiple turns take place no issues. Tried a 2 player game with a different friend and I hosted and the same issue exist "waiting for player".

Also - you should provide the option of allowing 2 people on the server to be on the same team. What if you want to team up with a friend and take on the rest of the world? When you have two people at this point - you cannot start the game unless both people are on different teams (AI automatic assignments aside - they incrementally get higher in team number).

And just to add another voice to the request - please add animations in multiplayer. Is this 2010 or 1990? Companies that have problems getting multiplayer to work properly boggles the mind.

This will end in a good note. I love this game still. I know people have been raging about the issues - and hopefully you release future patches and support this good product.

Two players, Internet, four AIs, we freeze on the first Next Turn. Doesn't happen with no AIs.

The same thing happens with one AI but not with two humans and no AI.
