Quoting Stmorpheus,
reply 8
i just need to know if i can save a game in multiplayer and then load it back up with the same, or perhaps even different players at a later date. if so, does it save the game to the stardock servers or everybody elses?
I can't speak for this sadly but I know it's supposed to let you save games MP to continue them later. I just don't know how stringent it is on getting the other people back.
Oh this system Stmorpheus is talking about reminds of the EU multiplayer saves. It saves all the nations as playable so you can pretty much add new players or leave out old everytime you start the game. It's an interesting system. I think it would be nice if you could do that, but not necessary. Like a lot of people, I see myself playing 3-4 human players at most, assuming multiplayer features are actually acceptable to our group at release.
