Status: offline 		Just installed 5.3 from CD I purchased "Desert Fox 5.0 and SPWAW 5.3. Here is the problem. I move some of my units. Exit the game. I return to the saved game and find that the moved units are free to move again. The turn didn't change. Is there a fix for this? I also download SPWAW 6.1 update but still the problems does not go away. The bug does not exist when playing a regular scenerio which leads me to believe that the problem lies with the MEGA CAMPAIGN. [ October 15, 2001: Message edited by: Jean-Guy Girard ]

That problem has already been fixed with v7, just wait a little longer and you can get the fix for it and some other problems you haven't come across yet.
thanks, John.

They should not sell the game with such a huge error. The mega campaigns are totally unplayable unless you finish all the movements before exiting. Very upsetting. Jean-Guy

I don't know about you, but I don't play with in game saves, I start a battle and continue until the end of that battle. It is not an issue to me.
thanks, John.

Sorry, Jean-Guy, I can't agree with you that the MC are totally unplayable bc of this problem.
I have run into it too, and only consider it an inconvenience.
The MCs are great, and even though this problem might make it complicated to save the game in the middle of the turn, in no way does it make the game unplayable. I enjoy the MC greatly in despite of this problem. Make it a habit to save only at the start of each turn before you move any units and you won't suffer any consequences from this problem. Color

I spent fifty bucks on Microsoft Train Simulator and it is a piece of crap. Three strikes, you're out: Third time it came off my HD it stays off. Not due to lack of HD space, either. Still got 27 Gigs to go, just don't want to waste space on junk such as MSTS. SPW@W will never be taken off my HD. Right now I'm involved with Falcon 4 and Operation Flashpoint, but I will always remain close to W@W via the forum. This is where my heart is. Bing

We're in version 1.30 many months (game released in June) after release and it still does not have all the features advertised on the box. AND They are now asking for Pay for Play (as the game is a MMORPG) But you know what, I'm going to pay. It's getting better every patch and it blows away any wargaming experience I've ever had.

Status: offline 		Man, I wanted to try that WWIIonline, but was figuring with so much to offer, surely it would be glitchy at first, wasn't wrong then, huh?! I'll give it a little while, but the concept seems awesome, have you gotten to play it at all, or not?
