Multiplayer game - HOW TO?
So, I got notified by my good friend Kris about the new Ogre computer version game. Grabbed up a copy as soon as I could and have gone through some of the games and tutorials and now want to play my good friend, however I can't for the life of me understand how.
I've connected/friended him on Steam and then also sent the Friend or Group add request but when I try to create a multi-player game, he's nowhere to be found. He has accepted the steam friend request. Is it the Group request I am waiting for now? Any help would be great. Ken |

They should get the invite and you should see them show up in the list of unassigned players. Pick your sides and play.

Does it require that he be online at the same time? If so, makes it tough as he's in New Zealand and I'm in So. Cal.

Re: Multiplayer game - HOW TO?
You both need to be online to start the game - otherwise deployment wouldn't be possible. Once the game has started, you can take your turns separately but unfortunately you can't begin a game this way.

Re: Multiplayer game - HOW TO?
Well that's odd. How am I supposed to play with friends all over the world? I gotta wake up or they gotta wake up so we're both online at the same time to start a game?
Should be a Challenge to a Friend and the game starts. I'll have to schedule a start of a game on a Weekend when we're both available at the same time. IMHO, this needs to be fixed so you can challenge any friend at any time. Ken |
