When I said that they changed, I was referring to their DRM policy, which is pretty obviously not the same as it used to be.
Actually, it looks like you weren't here during the horrible Strategy First/Stardock years with EU2 DRM and etc.
Will it be possible to message players from the lobby to a running game? I.E. I start up a game, I am playing, and I want players that hotjoin to ask for a passwort before they join. Can we communicate?
EU3 is a Steam-only title, I find it hard to understand why anyone would expect the multiplayer (running on Steamworks) to work when not logged onto Steam.
I hope there is an option to have MP without logging into Steam with Standalone Servers.
Because, you know, you can't log into Steam sometimes due to servers restarting or other problems on their side.
Well, in all my years of Steam (3) that has yet to happen to me, so I don't think that's much of an issue.
is the IP connection still available or did u guys remove that?
I've never played any Paradox games multiplayer before but perhaps it's time to try. My biggest concern is the inability to pause at any time and adjust the game speed based on how much stuff is going on.
