What I meant was that yes a 40 week game seems appropriate to get everything done that I need to do in order to win presidency, however on the 121 week games, there just a lot (60 to 80 weeks) of not really needing to do anything much at all. I suppose it could may be a challenge to do nothing for the first 80 weeks and let the other candidate run around like madman picking up awareness and approval, and then jump in at week 81 and try to win that way. Perhaps that i

It would also be nice if I could select assets from the asset window and have it take me to them ready to do whatever I want to do with them like when you regularly select them from the map screen. There are times where you can't select some objects on the map, it's not that theres too many around them, it's not that they are too small, they just can't be selected, instead you end up selecting the state, so it would be great if there was an alternative way of selecting them (besides u

I have the same issue over here. I opened up one of my saved games and many of the Ads as well as many of the objectives were missing from the game map, it was like looking at a different game there were so many of them missing. I usually make several backups of my saved games under different names in case one of them gets corrupt, which doesn't happen very often in the games that I play, so I reloaded one of the other saved files that was stored with a different

Okay, the work around for this, would be the following: Instead of quitting the game, click on the Quick Play button (the top most button on the main menu), when you get to the first screen, click the back button in the lower left corner of the screen to take you back to the main menu, then click the "Load" button and you should see the normal Load screen window instead of the "Wait" screen window. My guess is that the game doesn't dump the game being played whe

I think there must be an easier way than havin to actually exit the game when I want to load a game, what step am I missing here? 1. I start up the game, and then choose to load up a game. (I find I loaded the wrong game save, so I would like to load the right game save). 2. I exit to the main menu, and choose the "Load/Save" button again. 3. It no longer lists "load" as an option, it's now got womething like "wait" in it's place. </p

I've been lucky in that my full extent of needing to contact Stardock has been to move some of the programs that I bought a long time ago using an email address that I couldnt use anymore transfered over to a newer email address. I had to do this twice over the past 4 years or so and they handled it quickly and efficiently both times. I would hope that regardless of how big or small their market is for the game (after all it was their decission to do this game to begin with) I w

Okay, I found the problem, it has something to do with how long of a name you insert for your name for multiplayer. If I enter the name of "Theo" the multiplayer loads up just fine, however if I put in the full name of "Theodore Emerson" then the game consistantly crashes each and every time when trying to load up the multiplayer lobby. Give it a try and see if it does it for you too.

I'm usually one of those types of people that loves to have games drag on for ages, so I chose the option to make the game as long as possible (I think that's 121 weeks in TPM08) but Im starting to wonder if that was really a good choice. Im only into week 40 or so and finding Im bored silly with lack of what to do. Im guessing that I just don't know all the nuances to the game and what people do when they play it. I run around from state to state placing headquarters or o

Thanks for the reply, I'll just reiterate incase Brad or anybody else that can change things might take it under consideration... PLEASE provide an alternate way to select objects on the map... I placed one of the +4% objects (the lady that appears in the screen with the objects you can choose like where the fixer is) and then tried to select her. No go! No matter what I try I can't click on her. Everytime I try to click on her, it selects the state ins

Okay, theres another problem with the movie director or I don't understand how he can be used. I finally selected him from the long list of assets using the tab key, then I move him to Tennessee, I then created a Television ad in tennesee, and indeed the prices were halved. I then selected the movie director thinking to move him to another state, but now he won't move anymore. He's now permanantly "stuck" in Tennessee. Is he a one off

Okay, I had to cycle through a very long list using the "tab" key, until it chose the movie director and then I had him selected and could move him out of Ohio (which is where he was), he must have been inside a building or under the ground, so that problem is solved, however I think the game needs some help in this regard to where items such as this don't get hidden or obstructed by anything when they come into play on the board, they should always be put in the forefront and they should be

So in the above image you may notice that red seated plane. It's been sitting there in that motionless state for weeks now. I don't know what it was before decided to make that piece of aerospace it's permanant home but never the less I don't think it should be doing that. I have the latest version of TPM 2008. The

Hi, Im sure those that have been playing at TPM 08 have a good handle on this questions... 1. When adjusting your platform, is it better to give each option a +1 or -1 depending on what you believe in, or is it better to leave them all neutral and only give major +'s and -'s to those items that you believe strongly in? To add one point (+/-) to each item in the platform takes roughly 69 points (I may have left some of them as pure neutral though), so that leaves

The serial number for my retail purchased game was inside of the DVD style box, as a sticker above where the CD/DVD sits in the box.

Hello, I know this option can work for me as I've been in the MP rooms once before and even seen one other person in there (imagine that), however upon trying to get back into the Multiplayer Lobby from the games main menu the game silently drops to the desktop and is gone from any process list in task manager (i.e. it crashed without information). Before I load up the game again, is there a crash log that I can send you folks at stardock to try to help narrow down what is cau
