Tanaka Posted September 27, 2000 Share Posted September 27, 2000 hmmm...In this post there are some players that started PBEMs with me and never finished them (some of them without saying sh**)... At least we got them all together now [This message has been edited by Tanaka (edited 09-26-2000).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old_Airman Posted September 27, 2000 Share Posted September 27, 2000 TCP/IP very desirable. Waiting patiently for the patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrk_dog Posted September 27, 2000 Share Posted September 27, 2000 I gave away my game (to my nephew) as I was spending way to much time playing it. I am certain when TCP/IP comes out I will be buying another copy. A game clock would be a nice feature. Additionally this would be very vice compliment to team play . None of us are looking for RTS (obviously) but a game clock is still nice option. I remember playing my brother via telephone in the game Perfect General. He took forever to take his turn. It would really piss me off. I found out years later (from his wife) that he would take a nap during his turn. He considered this to be pyschological warfare.

POL Posted September 27, 2000 Share Posted September 27, 2000 I am currently playing the demo and awaiting delivery of the full game. However much I LOVE the game, and think it is THE BEST WWII game out there, I most certainly would not have bought it had there been no plans for internet play. So ..... ROLL ON TCP/IP!!! POL.

Guest MantaRay Posted September 27, 2000 Share Posted September 27, 2000 I know this is a bad thing to admit, but I loved playing East Front on MPlayer. Made the game much more fun than PBEM. I for one havent been playing CM for a while, but today I started again. TCP/IP is a must! Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmittyOhio Posted September 27, 2000 Share Posted September 27, 2000 Playing my first PBEM game using e-mail instead of ICQ...can't seem to send a file to him via ICQ...we both have cable modems, so speed is not an issue.... The main reason I wanted TCP/IP was confirmed during this game: continuity When playing out 30 minutes or so of real time, it loses some of the tension when exchanging all those turns....Fun, but not as great as TCP/IP will make it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrano Posted September 27, 2000 Share Posted September 27, 2000 TCP/IP: Oh my yes... Two questions, however: a) Will CM spawn for servers? I've already bought 3 copies (wouldn't necessarily MIND) buying a fourth, just want to know if I'll HAVE to. Maybe more of a comment. We're almost certainly going to have to come up with "house" (my how that expression changes in the era of the internet ) rules for on-line CM. I, for one, do not like the grid line mods and would prefer not to play with those that have them. I suspect similar issues will crop up. Not that the two are even close quality-wide but "Dark Omen" the RTS game based on the Warhammer universe eventually required an entire set of tournament rules just to keep multi-play in line. That, however, may speak more to the balance of the system than not... Regards, Cyrano ------------------ "Watching others make friends, as a dog makes friends.

Eric Alkema Posted September 30, 2000 Share Posted September 30, 2000 Count me twice. Once for me and once for a friend who never reads this board. He is letting his copy sit on a shelf until TCP/IP comes out. For myself I want TCP/IP because when I want to play CM, I hate to only play one turn like in a PBEM game.

Brian Rock Posted September 30, 2000 Share Posted September 30, 2000 For the record, a big "yes" to TCP. I'm not quite sure why we're polling it when BTS have said it is pretty much the sole focus of the next patch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlitzKrieg Posted September 30, 2000 Share Posted September 30, 2000 uuuhhhh, Yes, please TCP/IP. I have at least 3 friends who hate email games. They WANT TCP/IP. ------------------ Cya on the Battlefield, BlitzKrieg bkolvet@home.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
