The AlphaHQ has been down all weekend. How am I supposed to play multiplayer games? Firaxis, for your next games, why dont you just make them for major game networks like mplayer, or the Zone. I know alpha centuauri is playable on the zone, but there is no special room for it (thus you cant find anyone there to play it with). Why cant you guys use your brain for half a second and realize that multiplayer forums have already been established you guys didnt need to make your own stupid little java applet that totally sucks. Brian Rynolds, on monday morning why dont you call up microsoft and tell them to make a special room for Alpha Centuari on the zone so people that want to play multiplayer games can play them on a reliable robust system that actually works.

And this isn't the first weekend that it's been down.
Supposedly you can play via H.E.A.T. I tried once and couldn't get it to work. That was about a month ago. Maybe it's working now? Even so, I have seen players hanging about in the SMAC rooms at HEAT.
