Building a wonder in just 1 turn -- CTP2 multiplayer BUG

SNeznayka · June 4, 2001, 17:56

How would you like to build wonders in same city every turn? How would you like to amass an army of 100 tanks with just 10 cities in only 10 turns? Now you can, as we uncover the latest and most damaging CTPII bug. To use this bug in multiplayer and see for yourself, go here to get details on how to do it:

As you see, producing anything in 1 turn renders the competitive aspect of the game useless.

We, the {]S[}Skaven{]S[} hope you all will voice your complaints to Activision and make them reverse their decision not to support the game any longer. What we got is a Lemon -- and we expect Activision to devote some resources toward correcting their errors.

Respectfully yours,

P.S. When one buys a game, all advertised factors play a role in making a purchase decision. And when multiplayer isnt playable and scenarios crash, I cannot and will not buy the Activision statement that CTPII is primarily a single player game. They did not state that in the past, and they have no knowledge of reasons why people bought the product. You provide what you advertise and claim, and anything else is unacceptable.

Yeah! another one!
And why would Activision come back to a game that they have lost money on to fix it? They already have one of the worst reputations in the gaming community whats wrong with making it a small bit worse?

Dont you think this should go in the multiplayer section since it's a bug that can only happen in a multiplayer game.

This is the multiplayer section

But no-one here plays MP I think, and almost all M-Players are {]Skaven[}.

Incidentally, do the {]Skaven[} have a link in the ACS P&L directory? (apolyton links page). I might be nice if that became a centre of CTP2MP, because Apolyton's more of a creation and succession centre now.

On the contrary, the {]Skaven[} are only one of many clans in CTP2 MP. Furthermore, most MP players are independent, and many belong to the GameLeague (gameleague.megaultra.com). In short, there is a rather large CTP2 MP gaming community that has been cheated by Activision.
I apologise if my post was out of topic for this forum. Perhaps removing the "multiplaying" portion of the forum title might spare us all some confusion.
