    Red face

    Unfortunately, I had to quit MTW. This is my first graduate year with 9 courses (each with 3 credits) and I have to work in a government institution at the same time.

    Looking back on my one year of MTW history, I realized that I cant continue MTW with all those responsibilities; and since I cant stop playing when I start, I had to take the only possible step: Removed the 3D card from my computer and reduced rams to 64MB.

    I hope one day I will be a very good business person and continue with my one and only love:MTW.

    I admire your decision to put first things first. I guess moderation would be nice but if uncontrollable maybe a complete drop is best.

    Anyway your decision is sure to lead you to good things, who knows maybe in the future when you have time we may have far better games than MTW.

    Good Luck and see you back soon.
    If you remember me from M:TW days add me on Steam, do mention your org name.

    Good decision.

    MTW and the up coming RTW will still be good games for at least a few years. You can always come back after the graduation and securing your future.

    Wish you all the best.

    MTW will always be there... Opportunities most probably will not.

    Just make sure you come back to MTW from time to time

    Goodluck

    Good luck, Cebei, glad to hear you found your way out. For many others of us (including me) it`s too late.

    Hey good luck, dude. I plan on doing the same thing you did also. I’ve been playing MTW since it came out along with Operation Flashpoint, GTA3, GTA Vice City, Space Empires IV, etc. But I plan on re-enlisting in the US Marine Corps reserves and go back to college get a degree in either computer science or engineering, not sure yet. So, I won’t have time for computer games.
