Multiplayer still planned?

[Gneckes]

Hey guys,
just wondering if multiplayer is still a planned Feature for the non-professional version, since I haven't read anything about it lately.
What's more, being able to say Multiplayer is on the way might help me "recruit" some friends to the community.

Janes FC has MP and I think it's smooth for 2 players, considering it's a 90s game. I never tried it, but I believe it is way more competitive and challenging than AI. Kinda thinking how awesome it could be if that is CMANO...

A simple, fleet dual style of combat would be like modern-day chess and battleship combined and running in real time, like this:

Heck, even the 4x4 grand strategy game has real-time design like Stellaris too. I played with my friends before, and the MP game is save-able for another day.

nothing i'm aware of makes it impossible, just a lot of work.

it's definitely worth it long-term though. personally i think the community would be greatly expanded if newbies could be taught directly. Command would make an excellent cooperative game; larger scenarios would be feasible as you can split the setup workload and response across a few guys.

it'd be fun.

Might not be too soon, I guess:

Nothing ambiguous about that...

Its definitely something we want to add but very unlikely that would be to Command 1.

Command 2? [&o]

Command 2

No! Not yet, I've barely even scratched the surface of CMANO 1!!

And the anticipation of weeks of saving up would kill me!

CMANO 2? My wife hates CMANO 1. CMANO 2 will surely not be good for me since the couch isn't very comfortable.

+1 for multiplayer.

Coop missions will be really cool.

I had a lot of fun with friends playing campaigns on the old falcon 4 allied force. It will be really cool to play a cooperative campaign (maybe on a dedicated server)! As you said, you can split forces between players...

MP would be fantastic !
CMANO 2 too even if I left so much untouched yet in the 1 ...

Yes, Command 2 with Multiplayer and Tacview exports like in the PRO version.
*insert shut up and take my money meme* xD

Now that we're at it, do the devs have some kind of vague idea they'd be willing to share with us about how they're going to do CMANO 2? It seems that few wargame developers (Panther Games and Battlefront for example) have opted to update their engines incrementally and charge for major engine updates without making a whole new product that requires new scenarios etc. I don't know anything about game development, but doing CMANO this way could make the most sense since they already have a sound base for future endeavors in CMANO 1.

Hell I got my butt kicked with Janes FC on multiplayer back then! Let´s just say that a storm of missiles coming at your fleet is quite frustrating [:D]

COOP Multilayer would bring numerous more individuals to the franchise.

Let's have it for CMANO 2!!! Bring it ON! Hey if the pentagon can have it why not us

[Arianus]

Ofcourse the multiplayer is planned.
From 2012 is planned
