Hey everyone,

My bf and I are trying to start up a MP game again and it's not working properly.
I set up a private game (internet), invited him, we started the game (we are on the same team), but we are seeing completely different maps.

I can see his settler standing next to 3 cotton, and he sees 2 wine and incense- as if we were in completely different games :confused: I googled and I came across this bug that seems to be confirmed with the Europe map, which we had selected. But the leader board shows both our names, and the remaining AI.

We have since started four new games with pangaea, pangaea plus; he hosted the game instead of me, both of us verified our game cache in steam; restarted civ, set up a public game instead of private- to no avail. We had just finished a MP map earlier today, so this is new to us.

Can anyone help?
 
okay we just tried it another 10 times and suddenly it worked again. Not a clue! sorry for the thread
 
Could only imagine serious connection problems where you get disced and the other player gets automatically played by an AI instead... or can you actually still chat with each other when that happens?
