Another question for the devs, replays

Is there any chance we might get the ability to watch replays of games?  If only because I'd like to be able to watch and see exactly how the other team played in cases where I got my butt handed to me.

I believe replays are currently possible - albeit buggy - however it's not 'offically' supported yet. It's certainally on the cards from what I've read here on the forums, and it shouldn't be too long before it's implemented.

And I agree with you completely, I'd love to see the other sides' movements post game to learn from my mistakes and their strategies. I got royally destroyed in a game versus Rook and QoT, and I'd love to see their strat as I hardly fought them till the end - yet they were always one step agead.

Chick: Now another minor thing. There's a folder for replays, but there's no option to watch replays in the game. This was cut?

Marr: Let's just say coming soon.

Coming soon...  The two most dreaded words a game developer can use.

Theres also a tool in gamereplays.org that lets you watch your replays thriugh the game.

Replays work, but they're a little glitchy. The most obvious is that no sound plays (or so I've heard). They didn't want to ship them halfway broken.
