  1. Hallo, ich habe ein paar AI-Spiele hinter mir und bin bereit für einen menschlichen Gegner. Ausserdem bin ich ein völliger CM-Newbie.

    Wer Interesse an einem Spielchen hat kann mich hier erreichen: anton_meiseATyahoo.de.

    Grüße, Anton

  2. I experience the same errors basically since I started playing EoS. If it wasn't that good, I would already been moving to other games. Since I don't care playing the AI, being able to connect to human opponents is very important. I believe Brit is working on getting the multiplayer stable, though.

  3. What a confusion.

    What has happened is the following:

    One computer which as an EoS eLicense activated is broken, so the eLicense is lost since it can't be deactivated no more.

    Since I've been using two computers I have to deactivated the eLicense every time after playing since I never know which computer I will be using next. That is why Battlefront might have seen a open eLicense.

    However: I have activated the second eLicense, so now no eLicense should be open.

    to Martin:

    Are you saying that if my next computer breaks with a active eLicense THAN a reset will be possible?

    OK, that just happenend. Now I have no eLicense left for my last still working computer. I kindly request Battlefront to reset the eLicense of the Empire of Steel which I bought from your site. I helpdesk ticket was just submitted.

  4. to Brit:

    thanks for offering the help. Yes, right, the Notebook license was active as the machine broke.

    to Moon:

    from you reply it is a bit tricky to follow which person you are addressing concerning your comments. I will only answer to the first and fourth quote since these are directed to me as I understand it.

    (1) My license situation: As you have problems to understand my problem in first place, I wonder were the point of not understanding is: I was used to use my software on two different computers. This was great, since one computer is tiny but transportable and one is bigger but I can't take it around.

    Nowerdays, if I forget to delicense my software on the one (which might be in a different location than the other one) I will not be able to use my software anymore.

    (2) Some kind of copy protection: As I mentioned in the threat already I have no problem with the eLicense in first place. BUT it is hard to understand why you guys have no problems to discuse or don't understand problems caused by this kind of protection for the consumers, instead of just mailing back to me that my license was reset and I'd could just go on installing in for my two computer which are in place.

    Getting more confused,

  5. As far as I understand it EoS is only playable if you eLicense it on the computer. However this is only possible on two computer at one time. If I'd like to you use my version of EoS somewhere else I will first have to deactivated one of the license on one computer and activate it again on the computer I'd like you use somewhere else.

    In my case a computer broke beyond repair, so no chance to deactivated the license here. Now I just have one left and have to deactivated it if I choose to use my notebook.

    I don't have no general issues with eLicenses 'cause they might be a good tool against pirate copying. However I do have problem with it if it turn into a hurdle for normal users.

  6. So far I've been playing my version of EoS on two computer (a transportable and a non-transportable). The notebook broke without me having a chance to delinsence my EoS.

    So no EoS elsewhere than home for me. I asked around what to do and people told me I can reset my liscene at Battlefront - which sounds like a normal thing to do for me, now look what they've answered:

    ______answer from Battlefron Helpdesk:__________

    Resetting a license from our end is something that we do in emergencies only, because there is a limit as to how often we can do it. Therefore, we usually only do it when there are no activations left at all. Your key still has an activation left, therefore no reset is required to play the game.

    You get *up to* concurrent activations per key, not *at least*.

    What am I supposed to think of that? I can't realy believe that reseting my account would have been much more work than writing this friendly email...

    So far I had a quite good impression from Battlefront. However this might be due to my experience with the EoS team...

    Cheers from a bit confused,

  7. Hi Guys, from my site the only game file I can download is the first one. 2nd and 3rd link is giving me errors. I don't believe it is due to heavy traffic since I tried quite often the last days and it always these 2 which will not work while the other one does.

    Anybody having the same experience?

  8. Brit, the new patch definitely changed the stability a bit. However, it is still impossible to complete the first 100 turns of a multiplayer internet match. Two sets of gamefiles were send to you last night. One game used random #s of AIs, the other one was played without AI. Both matches crashed due to an error in which the connection between client and server player was lost, got reestablished leaving the client player a turn behind. Typically the client players EoS will tell him that the program is ‘processing’ or ‘pending’, both forever. Reopening the game does not help synchronizing the players.

    The ‘EoS’ does not work windows which sometimes appears if EoS is openend is a message generated by Windows.

  9. Hi Brit,

    good idea. I wonder if anybody else experience the multiplayer problems.

    Tried out the the newest patch yesterday. Settings: Random were possible. 2 internet players. 2-6 elite AIs. Game crashed at turn 55. Restarting the game eingine will give a "EoS Exe does not work" window. The game files will be sent to you.

    Cheers,

    Anton

  10. I am into stragtegy games and not too interested in fast 3d action titles. EoS is the best game I came across for quite a while. And for me the graphics have a brilliant style. Regards to that! There is great potential in the game.

    For me the ai is not of special importance, since I'd rather play with real opponents (and have so far never seen a above average ai in the strategy titles I experienced anyway). The ai is good for me to get to know the game and for this EoS is way smart enough.

    Great news for me, that PBEM is implemented, since bigger maps will hardly be ever played live.

    The major problem to recommend it to fellow players (I did convince one, though) that so far it is not playable via internet. It crashes, and crashes and chrashes. Concerning internet live play the stability has seemed to decrease in the last weeks, since before I was able to play at least till turn 100 or so. Now I am happy to play to turn 40 (speaking general). - I stoppt playing my mate since a week or so because it just does not make any sense.

    Since a tournament is being planned, I hope that soon these issues will be under controle.

    Looking forward.

  11. Hi Scott, I did register without notice from EoS-team so far as well.

    I've been playing a bit via internet against a pal in the last weeks. Unfortunately from approx. 10 matches started none could be played far enough to give a decision concerning the winner. All machtes crashed between turn 3 to 70.

    Since the EoS Team is really working hard and publishing bug fixes frequently I hope the stability issue is fixed and the solution robust, prior to tournament kick off.

    However, looking forward to challenge human opponents in this great game.

    Anton
