Hi. I recently bought the game and have had a couple of problems.
First I tried to play a multiplayer game last night and couldn't host or join a game. I kept getting a "can't find game at IP" error message. I have a DSL connection and am running Windows ME. I have also patched to version 1.9.

I've played other games online and haven't had a problem yet.

The game also freezes when I try to exit. Although not a big deal, its a bit of a pain.

Thanks in advance.

There isn't a "server" to match players. You must arrange games via IP# using ICQ, message boards, etc

Me too (win98se, 677 celron, 128 ram) haven't found a work-a-round yet...
 
nope. neiter of these are the problem. I'm playing on a DSL connection with server computers of at least 500 MHz (and I run a 900 MHz with a ton of RAM).

I also know how to set up IP to IP games, so that isn't the problem.

But I don't know what is :)
 
Hmm, did you check the support forum ?

There are some serious problems on some systems with freezes in MP savegame reloading, but as I got it you can't even connect to a fresh game (?) which isn't really the same thing.
