      The game is unplayable because there's an UNGODLY long, unnecessary pause after the dice are rolled😢
      Also, there are plenty of times when there should be sound by isn't. Like when you get resources or when the robber walks.
      Also, you have to cycle through each option individually to see if you have enough resources. Why aren't they just highlighted if you have enough?

    As a longtime Catan player, I picked this up on a preorder and have been playing pre-launch. The game is very pretty, but there are some bugs that make it less appealing to seasoned players. In variable setup, the game places the ports incorrectly, and sometimes shows ports with three connections to the island. It also shows changing icons for 2:1 ports so you do not know what good is accepted until you build there. Finally, multiplayer games take much too long, a turn timer is an absolute requirement. MP games take over an hour. Also, there is no voice or text chat which makes the game seem even longer. I would not reccomend fans of catan purchase this game until these issues are patched.

    Also, it doesn't tell you when it's your turn. You have to constantly check or you'll find yourself frequently wondering why nothing's going on

    Red Banana, the Mrs and I are enjoying the game. Last update sorted out a few concerns I had. Just struggling for her and I to both play online off 1 device as Co-op. Would be an awesome feature to see soon. Apart from that I love the approach.

    3:00 the art work is pretty good, i strongly disagree, it looks way too confusing, e.g. red has a settlement on 9-11-8 but is so hard to see, is also hard to differentiate cities and settlements, the roads can be hard to see as well , the robber dont even cover the number so ppl can just forget where the robber is

    Unfortunately, if someone is losing, disconnects and tries to reconnect, or wants to take forever.. they CAN. There is no timer!!! There is no "vote to kick!" There is no way to prevent someone who wants to ruin the game, from ruining the game. I've tried playing 20+ games and I think 1 or 2 made it until the end.. and I don't quit... it's b/c people go AFK, disconnect, etc and the game is so buggy that most of the time you end up in a stalled/frozen game where someone isn't taking an action and everyone else is left with the decision to either quit or wait and hope the troll leaves.

    Tbh, if they merged this with the one on Steam, they would still have 3/4 of a Game because of all the bugs both versions have.

  • @jonnyups2312
    @jonnyups2312 ปีที่แล้ว

    This game tries to balance the poor ai programming by using weighted dice rolls for the ai. This only leads to complete frustration when you get a 2 or more point lead vs all ai. Lazy programming. The 360 version ai was lightyears ahead of this game. In fact the 360 ver was better in nearly every way.

    This game needs updates badly. Tons of bugs. People can reject someone taking over AI and rage quit and the game is frozen. AI gets stuck during trades in online games. Add time limits to stop people from grieving when they are losing and just sit there until people quit. And update to different maps or hell just a basic map board. No graphics. They are horrible. New houses roads and cities graphics? Dice options. Fix the game first. People paid for this crap
