My latest game has just frozen up on me during a turn changeover. I've tried
it with several saved positions and on a different machine, and the same
thing happens every time. There's not much can be done to help this game, but
I was wondering if Firaxis are interested in receiving a copy of the saved
game for debugging purposes and if so, where should I send it to?

Hi Will,

There is a known issue w/ enemy missiles which can cause a freeze at
turn changeover. This has been fixed for version 3.0, which we hope to
have available in a couple of weeks.

Sorry about that!

There's nothing more frustrating than palying this damn game for 2 days, getting
up to mission year 2358 and then having the thing freeze. As soon as I move this
ONE unit, the game locks up. I've tried disbanding it, moving other units
instead, all kinds of things and the sucking thing STILL locks up at the same
point. AAAARRRGGGGG!!!

Hi Jeep,

Mail your saved game to jmo...@firaxis.com and we'll take a look at
it.

There is one known lockup problem involving enemy use of missile which
has been fixed for version 3.0, which should be available in a couple
weeks.

Sorry about that!
