Im an ex-Dark Reign and C&C addict. The best part of the games was their multiplayer capability. Playing a computer is boring when compared to real competition. I would like to see Bluetooth multiplayability in Warfare (especially for the Zod). And for all you Bluetooth detractors, WiFi is a battery hog and would suck on a road trip.

yaeh!
i´d like to see multiplayer too but i suggest you should make multplayer via ir and wifi too.
ir would be cool to play against Palm owners (and of course every PDA got ir)
and wifi would be cool for those PDAs wich don´t have bluetooth to play over bigger distances.

you HAVE to make it possible to play multiplayer with a PocketPc AND a Palm....please...

of course internet multiplayer would be cool but i think local multiplayer is much cooler because you see your opponent...

Ps: when will there be a next version??

Yeah I would like to see multiplayer over IR, though it seems that it would be rather difficult. I just got my Tungsten E, mainly because Best Buy (I've had great experiences with their warranties in the past) doesn't carry the Tungsten T2 :(

I don't get you guys, have you ever used IR?
Good luck keeping things lined up on a road trip.
That would really suck having to be the guy sitting in the passanger seat that had to always be turned around to play the guy in the back.

Yeah, in a car or any moving situation IR is impossible. But with a table, I've been able to use my IR port to play Pong just fine. You just have to keep them laying on the table...it's pretty easy.

IR is not that great though. Yes, it may play well with Pong, but when you start playing a game like Warfare, especially multiplayer where both of you are building massive amounts of buildings and units, it will slow down quite a bit, but I still think that they should make it so it can do both, as well as be able to play between platforms (IE, Palm vs. PPC).

I think that they should at least give it a try, i'd be willing to use a table, no problem, i just want to play multiplayer on my m505 without having to buy an expensive bluetooth card!
