multiplayer

[Lone]

someone recomended this to me as i do love realistic games

however i noticed.... no multiplayer

are there plans or future titles that will accomodate MP?

Probably not, but it would be cool to at least have LAN support. I think i saw a multiplayer option in a graviteam game before, but dont take my word for it, and i think it was a quick battle, but again, im probably wrong.

i went through the forum, i saw a couple of people made mention of a multiplayer aspect of it

that would really get some cash flowing for people who love multiplayer such as myself

Every time it's been brought up they have said no, but who knows, times change. It's still worth a purchase however

2017 and these guys still refuse to make there engine MP capable.......REALLY?
Look at Combat Mission in that case. Who wants to play against a usseless AI. Cheers

Agreed at least LAN support.

I have 5 friends at least who would play this game if we could coop a few batallions, its a shame. But it's their game, and it's their lack of zeros in their account.

If once the MP appears in our games on STEAM, in any case it will be only for a quick battle (specially made missions), and only 1 vs 1 through a direct Internet connection (without servers and lobby).

LAN support is not needed, because of utter senselessness.

Especially in the CM there is no AI at all, so there's no choice.

You might think that random players from the Internet are something better than AI? :)
I think it's usually worse: AI is available at any time for the game, does not cheat and plays by your rules.

The mass of network games around, for every taste and color, I don't think somebody
forces someone to play just ours and torture yourself without a network .

@andrey12345 v2.0,

u are fully right at some Points, but i really have to say,... a got much Friends, at least 4, who really would love the game if it would be possible to play co-op.

i mean u guys got a usefull KI and it would be really nice to play with a Friend vs KI in great battles and i think much people would also love that....

aside that keep on the good work

You got it brother!

Andrey this game would skyrocket profit wise if you added multiplayer, i have several friends who sadly didn't want to buy because of lack of multiplayer. I mean seriously if you added multiplayer a big chunk of the CM community would migrate here.

By the way don't do the CM mistake, add a multiplayer lobby.

How would you do multi for it without desyncing?
Whole battle state is calculated on one machine and sent in a packet to the other?
Limit the game to the speed of the slower computer?
Do what combat mission does and pre compute 1 minute (the game would suit this style already to be fair, not many orders per round and the ai looks after itself well)?

To be honest I'm curious about playing against a human opponent, there's just no substitue.
