system crashes

pbem admin password - especially a pain when players disappear and no password could be set

I find a few hour to play, go to gamespy and try to connect and just sit there...sit there...never make the connection into a specific game

I do get iunto gamespy just unable to make a game connection

Isn't that Gamespy's fault and not Civ4's?

I "bought" a MP CIVIV

I subscribe to Gamespy

I do think it is CIVIV's responsibility to get it workiong without me haveing to go through my @zz to get to my game

That comment was one of frustration not at you sir

Well at least in these early days we are likely to see more patches... and a few expansion packs

My concern is for later - will this be abandoned like Civ III... with a crappy 1.12 patch on C3C? Probably...

When I was playing MP I used the in-game browser (which is powered by gamespy, admittedly). There were bugs but it worked, mostly.

That sucks. I thought they fixed the outstanding issues in the last patch.

[Nikolai]

There's always the next one.

Nah, in the US that would limit the audience too much.
