Empire at War

i find it kinda strange that this game does not have replays yet...supposed to be included in an upcoming patch?

also, the single matchup is gonna get old quick...they should at least let mirror matches to mix it up a bit

did they rush this to market to beat EA BFME2 or something?

I'm pretty sure Petro is working on a replay function for this game. If not, I shall be might pissed

Must...have...replays...to...use...battlecam...

They are. Some issues had to be worked out.

It will come as soon as it's ready, you jsut gotta wait and have faith.

Should be in the next patch

Kinda of a pain, but it may work. If you play a nice game and want to save the replay for a later view (when the replay funtion is implemented) look for a file called temp.rec located in Empire at War/data.

This is all spectulation, but I think if you copy that file to another location you might be able to view it later. Everygame you play will overwrite the previos one.

"Q. In other RTS games such as C&C Generals and Warcraft 3 there is an ability to save your online game replays. There is also the ability to go into "observer mode" in an online game to witness the battle without being a combatant.

Are these two options going to be implemented in EAW in a future patch/has there been any thought to including them?

Dev respone: We're looking in to both."



(from dev chat)

Replays are going to be in soon. Observer is something we are going to look into for a possible future patch.

Great! Replays are an excellent way to learn tactics... I hope there are going to be some cool features in the replays... like slow motion or skip forward... being able to tell exactly what the players are doing...

Good stuff
