MAJOR BUGS:
Connection issues.
Memory leak on host.
Game goes out of synch most of the time.
[note: the only thing that could be worse than this list of bugs would be, 'multiplayer cannot be selected from menu'. And honestly that bug would actually be an improvement since it wouldn't have wasted my time.]
GAMEPLAY ISSUES:
No distinct eras to choose from.
Can't upgrade multiple units at once (right?).
Can't route.
Chat sucks.
I love the single player game. It has some minor bugs but nothing I wouldn't wait for a patch to fix.
THE MULTIPLAYER SUCKS. I've spent too much time ... wasted too much time on it. When I realized that the 3 games I played tonight were all played in parallel universes to those of the other players in the same game ... well that's it. I'm not wasting anymore time with it until they fix it.
I'm actually a little ticked off about it now. The multiplayer is crap. And the funny thing even if the Major bugs are fixed, we still have a multiplayer game that is a step backward from MTW/STW.
I'm not sugar coating it anymore. CA has really dropped the ball on this aspect of the game. Hell, even beta versions are better than RTWs multiplayer.
Sorry but I'm really frustrated at the time I've wasted. As my friend said tonight, "I'm done with multiplayer until they fix these issues".
CA says they've talked to people who are having fun? HA! Most of these people are strangers thinking they are playing the same game together ... which they're not :)
