March 9, 2009 12:24:10 AM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

If your an avid sins player.. just get entrenchment. This whole lobby split thing is killer. We need the player base. Come on folks!

Really not hard to get at all. Every time i've wanted one I've been able to find or make one in short oder. The problem is people like you being so impatient that you switcch back to base-Sins in about 3 seconds, when you "can't find" people to play Entrenchment with you.

No problems finding some kind of game.  If there isn't a comp stop there is usually a vs.  I prefer vs but some of my friends just got the game so they want to comp stomp for practice.

The larger issue with Sins in general is that people rock up, see no one in the lobby (or only 1 or 2 others) and leave. Then someone else comes along. I have waited 1/2 hour at off peak times for a game, but could have had 2 10 players ones filled by the people popping in to see if anything was happening and then leaving...

I have no problem finding games. Generally I stick to entrenhcment unless someone asks for vanilla game.

I tried multiplayer for the first time yesterday, and it did took me a while to find some available games and more to be accepted in one.  However, sometimes, there were 3 games available and only one showed.  Has it anything to do with the fact that I don't have entrenchment?

I'd like to know, as I might upgrade soon...

Yes if you see available games but dotn see any games in the list either your filter is out of whack, or they are not usin the same version as you. (vanilla vs Entrenchment)

yeah, that means the other 2 games were entrenchment games.

[Edit]  Looks like me and Astax posted at the same time, only he is faster.  Obi1
