If you haven't got time to 'waste' sitting for 30 minutes then why did you start playing at all?

Hosts who drop should be hunted down and have their internet connection hardware shoved firmly up their bunker.

When Europe broke the alliance with host Russia, the server shut down b/c Russia was pissed. Hello! It's the point of the game. I was wining as South America at the time.

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD MAKE THE SERVER SWITCH TO AN EXISTING PLAYER WHEN THE HOST PUSSYQUITS SO THE REST OF US CAN KEEP PLAYING...

Thank you very much for a beautiful game. I bought 2 keys... one via steam for my main comp and one direct DL from your site for my thumb version to take to work with me. THAT is how much I respect this game! :)

This feature has been requested. Rest assured, the folk at IV are aware that we want it. It can't possibly come before the first patch, so be patient. Wait for it. If it doesn't appear in the first patch, then you can whine a bit more.

Buh-leave me im not whining... just voicing my support for the idea. I didnt start playing computer games yesterday and know full well how long it could take... Im merely expressing my support for the idea, not whining because it hasnt happened yet. Pretty sure thats what forums are for. K thanks.

Okay, shouting? Capital letters == shouting and/or whining. I am sorry to have implied that you where whining if you weren't, but the all caps made it a bit ambiguous.

Well I've just played my fifth game this evening - the first that actually went to completion ( awesome game as well, kudos to Scallywag [my 'ally'] for an excellent backstab on me ). Played four games before that, one shut down really early, but the other three were shut down as soon as it was clear I had the advantage. One guy actually typed 'get the hell out of my server' in chat before shutting it down.

To date, I have not finished a one on one in normal mode, although I have been raped a couple of times in speed defcon. I find i'm much more likely to get a full game with multiple players, although one or two will invariably drop.

Oh if Lionel Mandrake is reading this by any chance, sorry about the match the other day, my connection went tits up, was just getting interesting.

I have yet to leave a game I have hosted because i was killed i was simpley saying somethings a game can go on longer then the host inteaded which sometimes happens to me when i play warcraft3.

So you really cant blame me yet i. Also snice this is a net game sometimes the host can crash so try to find out before you flame them

What i really hate seeing and which has happend to me in some of my hosting games
is that people leave even thogh the cpu pwns you really cant makes plans with it then back stab it latter in the game.
:roll: :roll:
