voncasey Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 thinking of buying this game for me and 2 friends multiplayer sounds cool in that more than 2 players can play a game and can coop against the ai.............does it work well over cable /dsl connection can you play via email? like combat mission?? we've all played cm and this sounds like a cool upgrade thanks CC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crom092 Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 good idea to buy it. very good idea. it works very well over dsl connection. we played up to 8 players with it through a dsl connection. and we are mainly 4 to play it each week. and it works fine with hamachi. but no issue to play via email. only tcp/ip. this game is more an upgrade of close combat than combat mission. and it is a great game. you will enjoy it i'm sure.

voncasey Posted January 19, 2009 Author Share Posted January 19, 2009 my friend downloaded the demo and said it ran kinda slow on his high end computer (he runs and xp system with the latest nvidia card and plenty of ram as he builds computers for a living) is this an issue or could it be the demo just runs slow sounds cool CC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sneaksie Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Of course it's better to try demo first. There is a troubleshooting guide on this site; your friend should try option 'use only one processor', it may help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnasher Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Steps onto Soapbox................ Why oh why is the MP server never up & functional! Hello 1C & BFC you are loosing serious $$$ because this is where TOW could potentially shine (Like IL2!)! At the moment MP is at best disfunctional because is virtually impossible to get a game together unless previously arranged by direct IP. For Gawds sake please get this issue sorted out & put to bed yesterday!. I've been a loyal TOW supporter since release, but this is now starting to seriously undermine my belief in your commitment to the game's community. BFC the least you could do is host an official master server (Preferably a Sun X4600 series ). IMO you guys (BFC/1C) have seriously neglected the MP side of your game (& Business Model>!?) which to me seem's a serious oversight.............show some long term commitment, it will reap rewards, I am sure! That's all ladies & gents, KHmmm I thenk ewe! Gnasher Steps off Soapbox! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnasher Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I hate to say it but if this game had both CTF & Sudden Strike like zep style MP play, combined with current SP campaigns, it would improve sales of the game exponentially IMHO.

Slamelov Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Why I play the game without problem off line but in some games in MP, there is 4 FPS for all the players?. Only the host play great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
