Not had this problem - went throught the US missions no problem. I think Zakalwe had a problem where a particular unit attacking was causing the game to freeze - but afai remember it was only during one mission in the challenge game.

hmm, What hardware are you using?

Ive played the USA missions and havent had a single problem.

Have not encountered an error during single player, every mission, or playing through Challenge mode as Air Force general.

Was watching Hard vs. Hard computer play last night and noticed something odd. I wanted Chinese Infantry against American Air Force. After the first 2-3 buildings were built, China suddenly gained $10,000 - I later confirmed this happens to any/all china players - pure hax. However the American general, as soon as his supply depot was built, sold everything and effectively gave up.

Tried it again, on a different map. Put the general against the chinese tank general. Once again the american general sold up and caused himself to lose the game. Very bizarre.

Whilst watching a Chinese Tank vs. Nuke general, the game crashed out to Windows half way through with a Technical Difficulties error message.

Yes, I have had a few problems with the game in multiplayer...

Game just locks and eventually have to hit reset....

This better not be common, or my review when I get to it won't be too good ;)

First I tried Quiting all the programs that run in back ground. That let me get another few seond futher

then

Had alook at Task manager and it all running ok using ram and load of processor but when it crashed, the process was not being used and the HDD was being accessed continuely.

So far with Zero hour my bugs are :

1) Bad Shadows
2) Large group of unist going over a bridge as unit at back want to go first stops whole group
3) Sound missing or mismatched
4) Occasionaly when scrolling round i loose the map textures and left with the builts and units
5) The famous "Game has detected a mismatch" in multiplayer

I wonder how long before C&C Zero Hour Patch 1.1 is released?
