First impressions of Multiplayer

[Hancock the Superb]

I'm not so worried about myself - my internet is quite steady. I just don't think it would be too fun if that happened too often.

I wouldn't worry about it. I've only seen it happen a couple times in the year I've been testing MP. It's never happened to me and I test on a wireless connection.

That's good.

Though, if it doesn't happen often, why did you guys report on it that AAR?

I reported it because I was asked to give you my first impressions and that was one factor in those impressions. I don't think we should hide something like this. It happened so I reported it.

Honesty is the best policy.

I've been testing MP for about 4 months and I've never been bumped off.

Is there a way to make it so you are still in the game if you loose connection? Maybe for the 1st Patch. All that would happen is the game would revert to AI for the amount of down time you have, then it would pick up again when your internet connection regained.

I don't think it would be too fun if internet connection just kept on going out.

Never fear HtS, Norb the Superb's AI will be fightin' in your stead. :woohoo:

I've been testing MP for about 4 months, and only got bumped once.

Yeah RebBugler. Wait until he plays against that AI... The AI is gonna kick his butt!

Do we have to answer this?

Because his article was about the first time he played. And on the second game he played this happened. So since his article was about this experience, and this event occurred during this experience, he wrote about it.

I apologize for the sarcasm, but this is a ridiculous question.

It's good general knowledge for anybody for whatever reason can expect when they get dropped. It dose'nt mean that the game is defective.

Did you try using Specific Targeting? If so, Did you notice any advantages or disadvantages over prior games?
