Twilight of the Arnor "getting stuck"

December 28, 2007 10:03:40 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
Has anyone had problems with new Twilight Expansion dealing with the game just locking up on your and not getting completely through the computer's turn? it is really annoying since I am at the peak of my game timeline. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Yes. This bug is discussed in several thread over in the Beta Reports forum.

I have set autosave on 2 turns, which solves the problem somewhat...Using previous autosave to restore when it freezes.

Turning off 'AI use full CPU' fixes it for me.

I don't have AI use full CPU turned on, but this happens to me, at least on long games on gigantic.

Also, if you have a game that gets stuck repeatedly, zip it and the debug.err up and e-mail it to gc2bugs@stardock.com with an explanation of what causes the bug and where so they can track this down.

I've been in betas for The Matrix Online, Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne, Auto Assault, Tabula Rasa, Kohan: Kings of War, City of Villains, and Hellgate: London, and IME some betas are fun, some are not. It depends on how much the devs interact with and listen to the players (when the players aren't being purely self-interested or dumb), how good the gameplay is, how reported bugs are addressed, and so on. It's a bit too simplistic to just say that betas aren't enjoyable.

Well, these were spread out over a period of four years, and usually only for a couple of months... And I played some rather regularly (City of Villains, for example) and others hardly at all (Auto Assault). I mean, it's not like a billion games went into beta over a three month period.

I'm not playing the beta just to "enjoy it" I'm playing it to enjoy it and help out so other people don't run into the same issues I have.
