Does this game have an hotseat mode?

Post by DorianIBD »

I love WW1 and I'm a big fan of Panzer Corps so I'm hoping to pick this title up.

does this have a hotseat mode where you can play all the campaigns against yourself? That would make it an auto-buy for me.

Not yet implemented, but will be done so in one of the planned updates/patches. It is on our list.

What a relief. The AI runs rings around me.
In spite of the Final Fantasy character it's pronounced sao-win after the Irish pagan god of death. I'm not a pagan but we're on a wargames website so I thought it fitting.

One of the big things about a hot seat mode is that you can study the exact effect of your actions on the enemy. That's often not at all clear, especially in the case of morale.

I'm proud of our job while beta testing, but I feel very disappointed of the lack of hotseat (2 years and still waiting). I have to admit it, I wouldn't have bought the game if I knew it would not be implemented. :?

I too enjoy playing with myself :mrgreen:

Honestly, I am baffled that more and more games are being released without hotseat
Im no progammer but how hard can it be to implement? No ai is needed, and certainly no playtesting would be needed....For scenario design/modding its a very good debugging tool..

Anyways, it something that does affect my interest in a purchase.
