I was playing some galactic war, and the EU server went down. Annoying you still need network connection for singleplayer, but it defaulted to the US server. This however was a horrible lag fest, but somewhat doable. Untill about 1 hour ingame that is, and then it grinded to an absolute halt, my game was running fine, but no units could move anymore. Why is the only option to abandon the galactic war, or shutdown the game? Why is it still not possible to save your game? A feature pretty much ever fps ever has had... Especially with a game on this scale, with potentially long matches spanning multiple planets. Should there not be a save game option by now?
it's basically almost-almost-ALLLLLMOST right here. if you can't wait it can be modded in, theoretically with what we have now.
Currently you can only save your galactic war on the large galaxy map between individual combats as far as I can tell.
The idea is that the ChronoCam replays pull double duty as "Super Save Files" because you would be able to resume the game from any point you wanted and not just the specific time you happened to remember to save. Uber is getting closer to this and getting replays working was a big step towards Game saves but still more work to be done yet. Mike
If it was that easy then we'd have it, but it's not. Viewing a replay is one thing but actually using a replay as the basis to start a new simulation is something completely different and probably requires a lot of code very specific to that task to get working but it's a process, you can't work on that code until you get the replay stuff nailed down, thus why we have replays but not saves quite yet.

Please can in battle saveing be put in for the single player games and if possible for multi player games too if possible. But most important for single player games.
Yes, basically, replays will allow starting games by loading points in the middle of those replays. Go to 12 minutes into a game, and load a game from that point. To save a game, just end it, and reload it moments before you deleted commander, start from there. They are still working to make that replay work as a load point. Just remain patient?
