Birth of the Federation

Hello all!

I'm back, and would like to revisit botf, for a few more games.


I spent along time trying to find alternatives.. Civilisation doesnt cut it.. Pox Nora doesnt cut it... Botf is best space empire building game ever!

who wants a game?

Dissy and ruthless ferengi looking for people to play against? I hope this post isn't too old I could be convinced to play again!!!

Hey dissy, gotta finish our game:) dominion overlords demand federation sacrifice.....

hey man lets finish it, im skint this month as just moved house so up for some entertaining internet gaming!

How does the UDML map run with more than 2 or 3 players does it have lots of lag and crashes? I would be down for an epic 3 or 4 person game on that huge map!

After turn 100 turn lag was between 2 to 4 min for USA Romania game... Crash every 10 to 40 turns most desync some in battle. This was played non mpr win 7 32 bit comp me vs XP system gentle. Shorter distances will reduce lag. Honestly 3 or 4 game persons game start to finish not realistic...imho

with the current info I have collected it would be interesting to see a 5 player game. with no AI running the search/explore subroutines that cause turn lag should be nothing. but combat calculation lag would still be present.

now if we only had a stable MP interface.....

The most crucial intervention that would propel this game into stratosphere is a solid networking engine ...

That would be #2 on my list, Turn lag is #1
