Hubert Cater Posted October 4, 2002 Share Posted October 4, 2002 Hello Everyone! I am pleased to announce that the TCP/IP patch has just attained official Beta status and has just been sent out for full testing. I imagine there may be a few hiccups here and there, but if all goes well there should be patch v1.05 with full TCP/IP support available soon. Note: The TCP/IP patch includes chatting as a standard feature Hubert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USGrant Posted October 5, 2002 Share Posted October 5, 2002 Cool. Will we see any other tweaks in 1.05, or shall we wait for 1.06? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archibald Posted October 5, 2002 Share Posted October 5, 2002 Hubert, will it be possible to load a PBEM saved game and continue playing it through TCP/IP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HankWWIIOnline Posted October 6, 2002 Share Posted October 6, 2002 Man, can't wait. Nothing like a good PBEM game...but sometimes I just wanna get the thing finishes already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iolo Posted October 6, 2002 Share Posted October 6, 2002 Can you save a TCP/IP game and resume it at a later time? That would rock! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iolo Posted October 6, 2002 Share Posted October 6, 2002 Man, and I was just starting to come to grips with my SC problem... (btw guys, the first step is to admit that you have a problem.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HankWWIIOnline Posted October 6, 2002 Share Posted October 6, 2002 The first step, actually, is starting a new PBEM game alongside the other 3 you have going. And once TCP/IP is implemented, that first step will become much more easier to take. And once you have 4 PBEM's going and 2 saved TCP/IP games ready to play at any given moment, then you are set.

Der_Waggs Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 Great I can Hardly wait for the online patch. Pbem is ok but nothing is like a online game. Now if Otto can get that ladder set up on his site well :cool: I look forward to playing each and everyone of you when the online patch comes out, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoSheds Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 Holy Crap! I've just started playing this game, and i was about to suggest it REALLY needs an online capability. PBEM just doesnt cut it when a turn takes 1-3 minutes (tops) and the turn-around is a 1/2 day or more. there is no way to "get into" a game with a slow pace like that. ONLINE will r0xx0r.
