Multiplayer games Support Apolyton, buy Call to Power 2

Hi there, I've been playing CTP2 on and off for a few years now, probably completed the game against the AI around 10 times using a variation of mods.

Anyway, I read a thread a while back of some players who had a 2v2 and it looked a lot of fun.

I was wondering if there are any people here interested in swapping MSN/email addresses or whatever to get some more of those games going? It would be easier to keep in contact that way rather that this forum.

Cheers
Dave

you could edit your post to remove your email and ask people to use the PrivateMail(PM) function, its the envolope icon left of the edit function at the top of your post?

This would give you a bit more control over who sees your email address + peace of mind. Most of us regulars here are good guys, but you never know who is lurking.......anyway thats my advice

Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

There are also bots that scan forums for email tags and whatever else they do, so id either remove it or edit it in a way so it isnt so easy to pickup. ie dave.enrightETC@ILIKESPAMTOOflyingfish.co.nz and remove capitals to send an email.

As far as a MP game goes, most people here and the 4 player game you mention, we all used ICQ to coordinate a game, if you can get that itd be easiest.

Also any newbies shouldnt be afraid (that is if you are) of playing more experienced players, if we play a 2v2 we always partner players up to make it as even a game as possible. Playing on the same team as a more experienced player is one of the best ways to learn too.

Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

Thanks for the replies guys -

Ive played a bit of civ1 online. It's absolutely aweful compared to CTP however, but I do consider myself pretty green to MP CTP.

However, experiance is the best teacher right? Ill post my ICQ # when I get home from work.

Also a little OT, I got one of those gain publishing cookies trying to install itself on my computer when I was playing around in my profile.

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

If you don't have windows xp i would be happy to play some 1v1

As for 2v2 I wwould say the forums are the best way to organize a game rather than email/icq.

I do have Windows XP - is Mutliplayer buggy in Windows XP?

I don't think I have ever seen CTP2 crash once actually (yes I have played it a few times too) - this is in single player however, under Windows XP and Windows 2000.

Well thats stupid. I wonder why?

Maybe "compatibility" mode helps - not that it usually does.
