Nah MP is fairly decent so far, though perhaps a little lacking in variety, but probably is far better currently than RTW was in terms of balance and they're actually making significant balance changes to try to improve it. I know you like whining about everything, so I won't stop you. :P

I beat the campaigns on all settings, all difficulties, and they didn't give me achievements. Even achievement whoring wasn't fun, and I love to whore.

It's not just me. I guess I'm just the loudest. They can fix balance all they want, but if there are only 3 shitty team land maps then it's not going to help. the longer there are 3 shitty team land maps, then the more etw will die.

I agree with the map complaint, of course.... ridiculous of them. I bet they were trying to see if they could bundle maps into an expansion, or some crap like that....

Still... tournaments are requiring map packs. That means there are many people with the map packs, currently.....

but belligerence is bliss.... I always say.

Not all of us dislike ETW. Many of the elements that make a great TW MP are there, they are just missing a few pieces from the puzzle, (wider variety of multiplayer team maps being the biggest disapointment).

The problem was that CA promised us far more than they gave to us. Had they not made false claims, more people would have been happy with what they got.

The problem is, this is always the case with them. There is always potential, and they never come close to realizing it.

I think they have realized about all potential of this design. ETW is a pretty good game made of it, and multiplayer experience is defined by the people, not just the game. I found it to be quite fun. B)

"Pants" is brit slang for "rubbish", also a british expression. :D

But the MP experience shouldn't have to be defined by the people. You shouldn't have to play with particular people to enjoy the game. That's the reason why L4D failed. With people you know, it's awesome, but with people you don't, rage quitters and griefers kill the game. There are no penalties for being a douchebag.

People don't always act like you want them to, and there's not always something you can do against this. Isn't life just harsh? :lol:

As far as I can tell, MP experience is always defined by the people, don't see how it couldn't be or why it shouldn't be. Show me!! :D

What I'm saying is, there should be checks made to prevent retarded behaviour. If people disconnect, make it so they have a connection rating. In C&C, players have reputations points for their behaviour while playing. Things. Like. That.

you've played it for an hour and can you even play mp?

I dotn know, at thetime i played till turn 1712. but started all over till i figured out how to apply Tech. then i played again till i figured out the trade routes africa/ etc, so i started over again. now im at 1730 with teh brits and im owneing everything. but those tosser dutch beat me to utlizing all of those trade ports and im allied to them atm.




I wont be playing mp anytime soon, nor care to for some reason. i dotn think i am able to anyway since it is ripped.


But the very FIRST thing i did was went into single player called "battle"*?* and then looked at my screen and said "######?" so i natrually wetn to land battle, as the others were irrelevent at the time. and soon found out the factions were restricted to all playable factions i nthe campiananand 13C, i was natrually pissed since i wanted to ATLEAST play as a natives, or knights of st. john or someone else that would actually may be fun playing as. instead of the same ###### i will be playing in campiagn.




recall them saying factions were unlockable. though ive yet to finish a campiagn din said there not.

i recall CA stating that plainly there were unloackables... FFS why do i even take what they say to heart anymore.

I think there are mods to unlock all factions for mp. I don't know if they work for sp.

There is at least one mod out there that enables you to play campaign with any faction. When it came out, it worked but had a fog of war issue: you had to move your armies before you actually saw your land at the start. Or something.

It's also possible to unlock factions for custom/mp battles seperately with modding.

Sorry... I should've said a mod, not a patch. There are a few mods that enable the factions... not much of a mod, obviously.
