Attention Brian Reynolds! Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Hello Brian, I only just got the game on the weekend, and what I have seen thus far I am EXTREMELY IMPRESSED except with one thing. Something which I think can be fixed in a patch. There is NO save option in MULTIPLAYER????!!! Please please please please! Consider putting in a save option for multiplayer in a patch update! Please. One of the great things about Starcraft and Warcraft is that you CAN save multiplayer games and come back to it later. This is really good for people with LAN who don't have the time to play an entire game in half an hour. Please I cannot beg you enough! If you put a save game patch for multiplayer your game would be PERFECT!! Please, I am absolutely begging you, down on my knees praying and hoping that you will consider putting a save game option in multiplayer! Please please please.
Unworthy as I am to ask, please please please consider it. im sure many people would like to have a multiplayer save game option, especially LANers like me!

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

Count my vote too. Nothing worse than playing with my mates on LAN & one of their machines goes down, & not being able to restart game from last save when he's fixed up again. C&C Red Alert has this problem, as does all C&C. Real pain in the neck.

Not had a chance to Lan/multiplay RoN yet as my Lan Partner's machine crashes with RoN. He's saving up for a new machine so we can LAN RoN, but if there's no SAVE option in Multiplay I'm having second thoughts about LANning it. Real pain not being able to save. Sometimes we LAN for about 14 hrs straight, may finish one game about 10pm & like to start another & play til perhaps 2am, then save & continue the following week. If no SAVE option, that would seriously reduce gameplay of RoN.

So, if there is no Save option in Multi, please BHG consider putting one in.

Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

I agree with the thread starter. Saved multiplayer games are the way to go. I remember the good old days of Starcraft online with friends. Often times, someone would have to eat or take a mean dump and that save feature was a life-saver. Also, it was nice for high-lag games that usually ended in network loss. But this was before broadband. Still, a saved game feature for multiplayer would be nice.

thanks

Put an end to popups!

Also can there be a button for allowing cheats on a MP game. My son and I play on our LAN but we dont want to play all day.

Yes, good customer service. Unlike some of the other games I've played.
