I can't seem to play multiplayer. Yes i have internet connection for the wisea$$ people out their, just in case you havnt figured out how i posted the message. I tried to play a multiplay game with a friend, when he tried to play off my computer it kicked him out, when i tried to play off his, he could play but my game was frozen...what do we do?
 
You both need to be running the 1.10 patch which has numerous MP fixes. Choose the slowest machine as host. Run the game at a reasonably slow speed, say 1 month/minute. Both of you run the game with the No Music startup icon. And try not to pause the game too often.
 
Normally you want the fastest internat connect machine as host, run the game at slow speeds 1/1 1/2 etc... make sure you both have the same patch and both machines have to be stable, we cant help it if a computer has file corruptions of its own going on.

Let me know if you get it to work...
 
No, the slowest connection should be host. When I play using cable vs someone on a 56k modem, we don't get through the first year without him dropping off. The other way round we get through 50-100 years before any dropouts.
