I don't get this thing where lately there's a few guys suggesting that reloading a game is somehow cheating...?? Who the heck are they cheating by reloading? If someone wants to reload a game for whatever reason then that's their call... no-one is playing their game but them. It's a rather derogatory term that I don't personally think is necessary.
Cheating in the Solitaire is still cheating
However, the temptation is strong and I admit that despite I am quite good at resisting it sometimes (very few times) I find excuses to convince myself is not cheating . I remember a Warhammer 40K PC game (I think it was called "Chaos Gate") that had a difficulty level called "Heroic" and was described like this "You can only have one slot used for that game, and any time that one of your units is killed the game gets saved automatically". I think that option would be cool to be implemented.
I love that idea about only 1 save slot and if one of your units or characters gets killed the game instantly saves. That's perfect idea. Frogboy please implement that into this game. Then reloaders who cheat will no longer be able to cheat easily. Plus it is true cheating in solitaire is still cheating even if it is yourself and the cards.
Visions of unplugging ones computer when a character dies comes to mind already. lol The things players will do not to lose or have to start over. I remember in Everquest players disconnecting if they were in a situation that they were going to die. So SOE to fix that even though they unplugged their computers made their character still stay ingame for 5 minutes. laughed my arse off at the way SOE fixed them. lool
