When it "freezes", are you completely unable to move the camera or, is it just the game itself "lagging" (i.e. units stop moving)? If it's the former, something is happening locally on your machine and the people dropping is a byproduct of that (if they don't get a signal from yo...

Yeah for that rate of updates you might be better off with something like dropbox or maybe even hotline.

Yah definitely - we totally have a "for fun" team with several members that I'm pretty sure don't know what puss is too I'm still totally stoked about playing in MWC though

Click the combo button beside where it says either "Automatic" or "Fullscreen" in Preferences (below 3D Fog) until it says "Windowed". Alternatively, set it to "Automatic" and then set your resolution to something lower than your screen's native (highest) reso...

Sweet, looking forward to this! Kudos for running it.

I'm definitely interested - we've had a lot of fun in the past getting a group of people together and something more regular would be fun.
