Pham911 Posted September 26, 2000 Share Posted September 26, 2000 Email doesn't work too well without the Internet, so I'd say it's already in. (Mace is right. There was a vote of sorts during the beta on wether we wanted the game sooner, or wanted to wait a month or so for TCP/IP and Lan play. We wanted the game, and the missing component has been promised in a patch. And CM2 is coming someday.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karsten Posted September 26, 2000 Author Share Posted September 26, 2000 Cool - I've just been totally jonesing to play via the net. Can't find anyone who ever completes an email game - it just takes too long for them I guess. I can't wait to play a real person in real time! The AI is great, but a real person - now that'll be GREAT. Too bad more people don't know how great this game is! One guy at work took a look at the graphic on battlefront's home page and figured it was some kind of totally cheesy game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikeydz Posted September 26, 2000 Share Posted September 26, 2000 Tcp/ip-LAN (ie Internet play) is the current focus of programing, so far that I know. Work on CM2 more than likely is in a very preliminary stage. Sorting through data, some early graphic work for units and such, but I doubt any significant CM2 specific programing work has started. Don't worry. We'll hopefully see Tcp/ip before sometime in October, or possibly early November, it will come. After that, unless a major game breaking bug rears it's ugly head, I'll bet programming will shift toward CM2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
