Feedback on Open Beta 2

[Richcat]

Just did a quick hotseat game, with new multplay force selection beta 2.
When choosing the forces is there any way to change your selection before sending to server, ie you might want to change your mind to get the best for money spent, and there seems no way to go back- or say you want to select 4 infantry forces and click five times instead is there anyway to correct that.
When playing the game all I get - virtually straight away "objective failed", this happens with both sides.

You should be able to add and remove troops as per normal, with the left and right buttons.

Which map were you playing on? They have all been played as far as I know - perhaps it is a hotseat idiosyncracy.

Cheers

Pip- guess what - created another hotseat of Force selction Clash of Armour Redux this morning and its working, as you would expect. The one from last night is still there but says completed.
Having never really played MP, didn't know you had to R&L click to add/subtract and I think when I tried right and left click I still hand finger on mouse pad, which doesn't let it work either, .
I think the basic problem is I play on a laptop and have got so used to using the mouse pad, with single finger and double taps abd just assumed tapping or double tapping would add or delete - Ipad style although I don't have one, my small brain just couldn't cope.
When I tried another MP hotseat this morning a small glitch again on first go with selecting forces, came up straight away with objective completed, but then started working normally. I think when I saved up to server to try other side. I can't remember the exact events, so will report if I see it again. Probably a hotseat idiosyncracy as you said.

Thanks for the details. I'll take a look on Monday and double check whether it is something more strange. It should still work for Hotseat though, so I am not sure what is happening. Were these all on the same mission?

Cheers
