Hi everyone, There's been a lot of complaints regarding non-working multiplayer in Eador. MotBW, so it's high time we address it and explain what's going on with it.
First of all, the original netcode for the game's MP was not very good, it could often lead to desync. We managed (hopefully) to rewrite and fix this part now. Secondly, we've been hacked, believe it or not. Perhaps, you remember the epidemic of the virus-cryptographer? Well, it got us too. We found ourselves in the shoes of a grandpa who pressed some button and and then had his screen full of naked ladies. All of the server's data was encrypted and held hostage. But we don't want to give money to terrorists, so just wiped out all our hard drives. So what happens now? Today we're releasing a new update for original MotBW, fixing multiplayer and improving the game's stability in general. To play MP, you'll need to register one more time — use your Steam/GOG key to do that. If you're having problems with registering, write us to support@snowbirdgames.com, we'll see what can be done. The game's netcode can be described by the term 'legacy software'. This means that the functional is in there and it works, but works pretty bad. To completely rework it from the ground up is too expensive, to fix completely — impossible. We did rewrite a pretty big chunk of the code, as we already said. But unfortunately, we just can't afford to rewrite the whole MP part of the game. So we ask you to understand any possible problems you may have with MP.

Eador is a universe made of countless shards of land drifting in the Great Nothing. Each of the shards is a little world unto itself, with geography and denizens of its own. The power over the shards is bitterly contested by Masters, the immortal beings mortals believe to be gods. Take the role of the mighty Master and shape the destiny of Eador! It is in your power to deliver the world from ultimate destruction – or to choke it with an iron fist of tyranny.
