JuliusColtranePille Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 hey chères friends,as i like the improvements made in the moment very much, i would like to point on another feature.a multiplayer-zone. unfortunately i've tried several times to host or join a game with the current possibilities and it failed due to my unbreakable firewall (it's a german provider-based router which has it implemented nearly "un-switch-off-able") but i remember the implemented multiplayer-interface in for example AOE III (which wasn't the best at all, but it worked well even with such a firewall).and i know that it would need capable programmers for such a task but i would love to see such a development.are there any plans made for an integrated multiplayer interface in the game? are there any reflections about this issue made yet?thx!regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a ticket on creating a built in multiplayer interface . So it will get implemented someday . Its only a matter of Time . But how much time is another question altogether ?

Badmadblacksad Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 are there any plans made for an integrated multiplayer interface in the game? are there any reflections about this issue made yet?Hello. Yes there are plans to create an in-game multiplayer lobby. I started to work on this. But don t expect it to work soon, there is still a few things that cause me headache.. things that are working:_account registration_connection_send / receive messages to / from the server_requesting and receiving the games list_host / join game (not very well yet)things to do:_retrieving the public IP address_NAT punchthrough ?_make the server more robust_better GUI_there is also a lot of things to improve everywhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiasco Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 Would you guys host it? I hate third party hosts like Voobly and stuff. Also, I really think that you should have an ELO rating system. This does NOT limit other players, since they can still play unrated or do scenarios or whatever. It is a must for competitive play however! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badmadblacksad Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 Yes. we would host the lobby server ourself.About the ELO thing, it's far from beeing a priority, imho. But people might not agree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiasco Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 (edited) well I am quite certain the ELO rating is not that complicated* since a good deal of aoe/aom people have dealt with it (meaning they have either done stuff like ESO Fropco, simple elo for age3, etc...so I think it would be quite possible.*I for one could not do it Edited November 8, 2011 by fiasco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
