No LAN multiplayer

One of the greatest games I've ever played. However, be warned that there is no LAN multiplayer available. Given the warning message (located at the bottom of the page for some reasons) about the multiplayer platforms doesn't mention or make that clear. A great shame since that's a good way to keep the game functional on the long run. :c

Great game, no LAN support

The game is amazing, however you can only play this game online which is extremely dissapointing as I used to play the game with my brother on LAN so it was deliberatelly removed which is sad. No mention anywhere that you only have online multiplayer which is bad practice.

No LAN multiplayer, no wide screen fix

5 stars for the game. 1 star for the state of release on this platform, this is unacceptable. No LAN multiplayer No wide screen fix These where the 2 things I thought they'd be working on and testing as a reason for the extremely long waiting time since being in the store until the release just now. I don't know what they've been doing all this time, but stripping out LAN and still not adding a wide screen fix is not a good way to spend your time working on this release. This could've been released months ago in this state. I regret my purchase.

LAN disabled - disappointing

No LAN - No party ... they put extra effort in deactivating the LAN function just to compel users to their dirty online-servers/surveillance i.e. online-survers. So ridiculous, such a shame for this great game, mb the best RTS ever. So better get one of the old DVDs, use the numerous (buggy but nice) MODs and have pure fun with ur LAN-community. Also runs reliably on Linux/WINE, sadly didn't made some MODs run on Linux. It took me too much time to resolve all the dependencies for unification mod, e.g. -> 2 of 10 mod-matches run w/o crashes. Top-skirmish, especially with Mods.
