Single Player Campaign > MP Campaign

[Maleficus]

Bearing in mind that I've never actually been able to connect to a multiplayer battle, I doubt I'll have the opportunity to take part in a multiplayer campaign.

I don't have 5-6 hours at a time to play MP campaigns. My short campaigns take me 2 weeks to beat because I only play 45 minutes a day. That's what happens when you work FT and are in school FT...

Im sure there are many with the same situation perhaps we can make some thread later where people post what times they can play and match opponents up.

i will most definitely do it. unfortanately, i cant get on the comp for a while, so i dont know if ill be on when its released.........

plus imagine the lag; it takes long enough for every nation to cycle through the turns as it is, imagine another human taking just as long as you!!!!!

[Swoosh So]

The campaigns are 1v1 so i shouldent imagine that long, again it depends on the player. I can only speak from my experience of rometotalwar 1v1 campaigns with amp and those turns took from 3-10 minutes. I spent the time amp took making his turns writing a quick storyboard or planning my own moves.

I will never have the enough free time to play an MP campaign, and even if i did i doubt i would have the patience to actually finish it. I suspect that the number of people who say that MP campaigns are a 'must-have' is very high, but the number of people who will ever actually play one through to completion is vanishingly small.

Also: IMO the design requirements for a playable SP strategy game and a playable MP one are like chalk and cheese. If you try to do both in the same game there's a good chance of making something that doesnt work in either.

I've tried it in the past but found that there were far too many expliots to make it enjoyable. But I'm happy to give it another go.
