Single Player locked teams unlocked when loading game in 1.03

from Sins Forums
I did a search and didn't see any related posts, so I thought I'd throw this up there.

I started a single player 3 v 3 game today with the new 1.03 patch and locked the teams.  When I loaded the saved game, suddenly the AI started pelting me with missions and it looked like the teams had become unlocked!  When the other 3 AI's were defeated, I was not granted victory.

Is there a setting I missed somewhere, or is this a genuine bug?

What happens is basically loading a game doesn't load the game options properly. It will keep all the default settings (which include unlocked teams) unless you click the Game Options button and then Accept (you should properly see Locked Teams when you click).

Basically, when you load a game where you modified the default settings, you just have to make sure to go into the options and accept them again. They'll show up properly. ;)

Ironclad is aware of the issue :)

::makes note about this:: Ah, so that explains why I was suddenly getting missions last night. Okay then. I'll have to remember this later.

To repeat, Thanks Annatar.

Actually, the missions aren't so bad now that we have more time to complete them.

Actually, I was noticing that I didn't seem to have an issue with the missions. I couldn't understand why people had been bothered by them. Of course, I had never, before last night, played with Unlocked teams. As it was, I didn't seem to have any issue or feel too pressured. Guess that would be why then. Might continue to play with them unlocked for now.
