A) MP is not broken.

B) If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

A + B = Do we need a patch?

the kid plays warcraft3 with us with no lag. i dont understand

Hey!

We need ability for setting diplomacy in scenrios.

That's something that needs the patch.

P.S.
Also, I've heard that Japanise scenario will be finished before next patch.

[Alexander's Horse]

Looks like they gave up on MP.

[WarpStorm]

No, MP and bug fixes are the main thing that's being addressed by the patch. No major new enhancements (although if Mike Fetterman gets his Japanese Scenario finished it might be thrown in).

If Horse's previous statements regarding the laws of Oz are correct, and they are the reason for the PTW holdup there, then the patch will be released shortly before the 7th of February, as that is the PTW Aus release. But that is pure speculation.

What is the source of your information Warpstorm?

[Jon Shafer]

He's a PTW beta.

Warpstorm,

Please consider some of the suggestions given in this thread. Thank you.

Hope that is true though.

Lets not fools ourselves here, MP is broken. Some of us may be getting away fine with the way things are but others are not so fortunate. I played a LAN game, my friend had a 5 ping, there was great amounts of lag and we never got to finish our game b/c it eventually lost its connection. Sad but true.
The thought of the patch coming out in the next couple weeks makes me all warm inside...

Warpstorm:

I presume there must be still some major patching for the Editor as there are many things (ie diplomacy, certain city options) which need to be included to be able to make complete scenarios. Do you know if this is to be addressed too? (since I don't play MP otherwise I think the game is almost perfect)

PTW was beta tested?

The patch will only address bugs/MP, it is doubtful to include new features.

[WarpStorm]

Just because it was tested doesn't mean it passed all the tests.

Editing scenario diplomacy is something in Firaxis to-do-it list.
While events editor is in Firaxis wish-list.

Do-it-list: probably in future patches
Wish-list: proabably in some new XP, if ever
