Falker, you should have been onliune yestorday, could have joined Gator and me in whooping the AI. Took about 2 hr's to kill the AI between the 2 of us. and thats with massed attackers, and constantly using artillery to long range bomb his but. and still took for ever. In the second game I had 3 of those BIg long range level 2 cannons firing on the AI and still it took for ever.
no, you cannot currently save MP games. We commented on that yesterday. There are ways to make it faster ... you can accelerate time. The slowness mostly seems to be construction cueing.
We shoudl try the accelerated time game speed feature next time. and making more factories so each producing different things.
Now there is a way of pausing a MP game. I have done it accedentlay several tiems for a second or 2. Not sure if Gator got a message or not when I did it.
