Hi Dovetail, My wife and I have started playing Catan CE on PS4 recently and enjoy the game a lot BUT we find the bugs and issues with online multiplayer frustrating and my wife is on verge of giving up. The last two online games we played did not complete. It was someone’s turn and then the timer runs out and the game just hangs. They do not get replaced by AI. This is very frustrating and needs to be addressed ASAP please! As for improvements, it would be good to be able to set a time limit for public games. 80 seconds is too long and some people waste time. We would like to be able to set to 40 seconds as you can with private. I would like to see a lot more in terms of stats and rankings etc. At the moment all I can see is how many games I have played. No win/loss stats, leaderboards nothing. This is a shame for a multiplayer game. Would also be good to see which players quit the game so we can avoid. As I say - we enjoy the game a lot when it works but the current bugs in online multiplayer are killing our enthusiasm. I would suggest focussing on getting this really solid first before adding new content as this is a deal breaker for most players. Thanks for your consideration
Hi there, thanks for the feedback. We are looking into a few issues that we hope to resolve soon. As for future improvements to player stats etc, it is something we would like to do but there are no time frames for that currently. You can find out all our future plans in our Roadmaps.
I experience this problem on a daily basis as well on the PS5. The board doesn’t load and the timer just runs out on the player.
Same here… My wife and I are trying to play online multiplayer on ps5 and most of the time (even after playing for half an hour) timer disappears and game just gets stuck. This is very frustrating, we really like the game, but this feels like waste of time. Please fix this issue asap
