I've mentioned a few Panthers in the Fog bugs and issues recently and decided to make a video with all the issues I had recorded to show you what issues I've found in my multiplayer games.

Most games in PITF are fine. But there's a lot of crashes/freezes that I don't get with other multiplayer games and I think that lag isn't the only reason for these issues.

Here's the LINK to the video. (length = 15:47)

I hope this video helps the developers in some way. It is purely intended to show the issues I have in the hope that some of them can be resolved (in future releases especially), and isn't criticism of the game itself.

If people have issues in CC PITF PLEASE mention them on the forums. I've seen people saying some aren't talking about the problems they're experiencing.

Do you experience these issues too? Do you have problems other problems not shown here? Let us know below!

If you could summarise the issues in the vid too it would be helpful - it's not the most efficient to just point the guys to a 15 minute vid :) I appreciate you have told us about some of these issues in other threads.

Cheers

Pip

It's hard to say what some of the issues are!

But I'll try.

1. Turret bug (two? examples in video). My tank has a damaged turret, but can still shoot an armoured car with machine guns. When I order it to fire, it crashes game.
2. Airstrikes that crash the game (3 examples in video). Usually happens when it destroys tanks, but does happen vs infantry too. Lag possibly?
3. Tanks getting destroyed, crash (two or three examples in video). Sometimes when a tank is hit and blows up, the game crashes. No reason.
4. Uncontrollable lag (several examples in video). I can have 5 games vs the same opponent with no issues, but then suddenly one game that just slows and then stops. No crash, and the game doesn't freeze (I can issue orders), it just stops.
5. Meeting engagement lag (one extreme example in video). When both sides rush towards the center of the map, you get lots of lag and possibly game stops (doesn't freeze, I can issue orders). Unfortunately, you HAVE to run to the center because otherwise you'll lose.
6. When a tank deploys smoke, the game can crash (I think - it isn't clear in the footage) OR maybe the tank got hit, then deployed smoke and the game decided to crash?
7. When the game ends, either my game will freeze and my opponent will get to see the stats, or his game will freeze and I'll see the stats. Seems to happen quite frequently. Happens when morale collapses mostly I think.
8. The game is running smooth, no lag, then suddenly most of the way into a battle it just slows then stops randomly (two examples in the video)
9. Fired at a building with infantry with a TD (one example). Game crashed.
10. Game where there's lag (one example), but only 3 tanks firing and one squad moving on my side, and one of his tanks and one or two of his infantry moving yet the game just slows to a crawl. It's not as though there's many units doing anything, so why the lag? The games before and after this were fine.

Also, this video is private so only way to see it is here and on my site. It is not view able on youtube, because I didn't want people to get the wrong impression of the game.

We're discussing the issues and how to prioritize vs. development of The Bloody First.
