Played a multiplayer game last night. It was pretty fun - basically it's pseudo-simultaneous turns which makes perfect sense for any sort of MP implementation. I thought it was amusing that you cannot save a game in MP though - only autosaves work.
I felt that there were some memory leaks as my game got progressively slower as the game went on, and some bugs (several crashes and disconnects).
The game itself is pretty fun - like some others, I was a bit shocked at how harsh the game penalizes fast expansion, and because of that, I felt like there was a lot of just clicking end turn over and over waiting for improvements to finish, or just researching.
I need to play a lot more with a new strategy or just focus in on policies/techs that enable mass cities, since it was my first game I just went with a mish-mash of stuff.
