Desync on LAN games

May 24, 2012 10:35:44 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

Every 3/4 games my flatmate and I play we end up desync'd. Were playing entirely differnt games, yet we can still talk in game with eachother. Desync so bad as in I have 4 planets under my control, and he only sees me owning one. I see 1400 bounty on a player, and he sees 3000 on another. We are both playing Vasari Loyalists. But it occurs even when he is any other race too. I am always V.L.

My friends and I get this problem all the time too. We all have the game, on our computers and get together on our days off to play. We don't use custom maps or galaxy forge, just the pre-made, or random generated maps, and probably 9 out of every 10 games, about the time of the first pirate raid, we desync. We've tried turning the pirates off and it still happens, 15 to 20 minutes into the game.

Same here. The thing is: It's random. We can't duplicate it, which is honestly annoying.

I just convinced a friend to buy it and play with me...We noticed this issue, and it completely kills the fun of multiplayer. How can you coordinate when the game is so different?

Best example so far:

 

On my game:

Friend is attacking a asteroid with 1 capital ship and losing badly, this is owned by Purple computer. Ship explodes due to combat.

On friends game:

Friend is attacking SAME asteroid with a fleet, wins handily, scrapes YELLOW off the rock.

 

Its super easy to notice the discrepancies when you play right next to each other.
