FotS multiplayer - fix being worked on

[CraigTW]

Hi all,

We're having a few server problems with Fall of the Samurai at the moment which is affecting the Clan Competition and Leaderboards.

We're working on a fix for this at the moment.

Thanks for your patience.

Any reason why you released the game early, I pre-order the LE and now everyone else just gets to buy it and I have to wait a day.

Wow, most entitled piece of garbage I've read. You're mad because they made it available a day earlier? You don't think other people should be able to play until you get to, just because you, what, ordered it physically? Other people paid their money just as you did. "You released your game a day earlier than expected, something game companies rarely do, but I don't think you should have, I don't want anyone else to get to play with their toys before I do!"

Thanks for the update, Craig.

Not only that the fact that it makes me update and then breaks my normal Shogun 2.

"Not only that" isn't really necessary, you can add in "BUT IT BROKE MY GAME"

How is jamson entitled? I completely agree with him, physical owners once again get screwed as we get it later than everyone else who got it digitally (wouldn't be bad if they left it to 12:01am Friday morning because I'd still get the game the same day rather than 12:01am Thursday morning).

I think you should look up what "entitled" means and realise it has nothing to do with jamson's grievance. Not saying CA pulled a dick move, quite the opposite as it only means I have to wait whilst everyone heaps the praise on the game and I can't do

On Topic: Cheers for all the recent updates Craig, glad to know CA are getting more involved in the community after disappearing for a couple of months

I see nothing mad about the post in question.
Your post, however...

Also since you like to misquote people, "I think he's mad because I'm an angry person in real life who thinks everyone else is an entitled brat".

[Blackwolf]

I just have 2 issues.

1. All the players in the MP lobby are all listed an [unkown] until they are in the same game as me.
2. Multiplayer get's just a little laggy but nothing major that you can't handle.

While I`m all for challenging Craig with the important questions, I`ll agree that that is not one of them. It is a somewhat foolish question.

Gotta admit I've never thought I'd see someone complain about a game getting released early

What about co-op campaign desync?

What about co-op campaign desync?

I can confirm today that it is still broken, I am at the point now after my 8th broken co-op campaign that I just don't want to play anymore. One year on and co-op is still broken, it might as well be false advertisement. Co-op was the one feature I was really eager for and frankly the only reason I have 350+ hours on the game but if CA won't fix the game I just won't play it. I'm not in the mood for broken games anymore.

Woah, thanks buddy. I really fell for their statement that they fixed desync bug.

Game order cancelled.

Like they said, they fixed "known" desync issues. Unfortunately they haven't found all of the causes of co-op partners seeing completely different things on the campaign map and co-op people seeing different AI turns.

You know, the whole problem is that CA decided to invent a ing bicycle.
There were numerous turn-based strategies before with cooperative campaigns, where there was ONE host with people connecting to campaign running on his PC. only ONE campaign was running at a time, why on earth anyone would make TWO campaigns running at once? Why create problems for yourself?!

Im getting a lot of freezes, saying "trying to validate profile", or something in multiplayer. Verified and defragged my cache, and it still does it every once and a while.

[AggonyFashoskie]

Everytime I try to access mp the game crashes, I have a hrad copy of shogun 2 and steam version of Fall of the samurai.. I hope what you guys are working on is fixing this issue as well......

[♘Top Hat Zebra]

Wow, that was fast.

Alright!

[Szlachta]

Any time frame on when they are fixing clans, so we can join one in multi?

[DeliCiousTZM]

Do this server issues effect Multiplayer campaign? because im having major issues with that.
