Multiplayer is very glitchy!

August 1, 2012 3:29:29 AM from PoliticalMachine ForumsPoliticalMachine Forums

The turns would not count down properly, a 21 turn game was more like a 200 turn game.

Haven't even got to try multiplayer, I just created a game in hopes someone would join but hopefully it doesn't glitch for me...

 

EDIT

I just played most of a 41 turn game and I think it got froze at turn 30 and it went on and on until the other guy left for some reason (I was beating him with Santorum )

Yes it is! I've had major issues getting even a single game to finish. Someone always ends up getting disconnected somehow. Usually my game stutters to a halt and then crashes if I'm the client. Sometimes turns, money, and stamina just fail to count down when used up. It's sort of telling when literally nobody has unlocked the achievement for winning a multiplayer game on Steam (which you can see here http://steamcommunity.com/stats/211120/achievements). I'm not sure how a game gets released in such a state, but I hope this issue gets patched soon. I guess the single player will have to do for now.

I didnt have a single issue with being disconnected but i did have a HUGE issue with the turns cycle. It was only a 21 week game yet after playing about 10-15 turn a piece the ticker still had it at 4. By the time we got to week 14 we had played close to 50 turns. I left the game bc it seemed like no end was in sight at that rate.

Yes, same here... Have tried 2 multiplayers game and the week cycle is very bugged. Alot of times when a turn is passes the week does not... other times a week goes back instead of forward... very glitchy and unplayble right now.
