Multiplayer too fast... bug?

game unplayable can't fix

from Sins Forums

Weird bug: playing multiplayer with my friend. He paused the game, and when we resumed, the game was about four times faster. We attempted to restart the game, and the behavior was still present. We reinstalled the entire game and deleted the contents of the my apps folder under our respective Documents folders, and the behavior was still present.

Why did pausing the game render it unplayable in multiplayer? What the actual fuck?

Why did pausing the game render it unplayable in multiplayer? What the actual fuck?

This isn't unheard of, however the devs have said it has something to do with the ping of players in a multiplayer game. So most likely one of your connections deteriorated during the pause, rather than the pause being the cause.

I won't claim to fully understand why it happens, however typically after a half an hour, the issue resolves itself. If you're only playing with human players its not too bad, you all have the same situation. If you're comp stomping I guess that can be quite annoying, as the AI isn't really affected, but it is only AI.
