If you think that one hour makes a real difference between you and me in this part of the day.

What were you saying again ?

Tried fucking Deity on Standard map with default number of opponents. Before the capital grew to size 4, all land had been settled. Fuck, this is definitely unplayable. Guess need a food bonus and make a worker sooner and chop some tree to get the settler out more rapidly.

Ok, tried without barbarians and I'm getting cornered regardless of whatever I do before the first settler is ready. Tried also with barbarians. Not getting cornered in this case but getting killed by 4 archers around 2000BC. Either way, does not look promising. Although Emperor and Immortal seems to be playable.

same here - deity means the AIs come knocking with Axemen at the latest - I am still building my first settler. End of game.

And again... Patch v1.09 is out. CFC is getting so excited. [

] Will wait for tomorrow before trying that myself, to see if it's OK this time. Besides it's late here, and I started to write one poem.

What is up with Xfire

1.00 didnt have it, and it worked well with MP.
They bundle it with Xfire, and present it as if not installing it will not allow you to play with friends online.

I m not saying it is crap, nor that it cant be useful, but it certainly is presented in a dubious way in the patch.

Here is a readup on what Xfire includes:

XFire I believe is used to help you find your friends online, something a certain tiger was complaining about IIRC

PS. And no, I didn't install it

Pastorius · 24-11-2005, 11:09

As I see it, it covers what MSNM does for us today. Besides, there is an ingame chat function there already - not the best though.

Yes, I thought the damn lobby was confusing - but IIRC, the patch fixed some of the issues I complained about, so I think it will be easier now...
