If you want to play online with friends, DON'T PURCHASE
We created a game selecting 3 rounds for the win, but after the first round, the game abruptly ended- the bluetooth and all communications stopped, and you are forced back to the main menu. WTF? I swear we selected 3 rounds in our custom game. After an hour of all 3 of us trying to host a 3 round game, we came to the conclusion that this just doesn't work.
The whole point of playing worms online with your friends, is to play a few rounds to see who the winner is- you know actually play for an hour or so...one and done is really no fun-- Especially since it kills the communication with your buddies, and instead of taking you to the lobby you created with your friends again (with communication via bluetooth), it kicks you to the game menu!! How lame! To play again (another 1 round game only), you have to create a new game, a new lobby and invite your friends again...all to play one lousy round!! SO FRUSTRATING!!
We looked at the Team 17 Forums, and it appears that many users have been complaining about this bug since 2008/2009!! WOW. Talk about NOT listening to your paying customers!!-you know, the ones putting a roof over your head and food in your bellies! WHAT A SHAME. I feel cheated, as do my friends. I feel violated. Would have never purchased had I known this and there is nothing I can do. The game is virtually unplayable online with friends. Too much trouble. I guess we'll just go back to playing Worms 1. I am not one for writing reviews, but this one made my blood boil.
Team 17, I know you are laughing all the way to the bank with all your Xbox/PSN/ iOS/Droid/App purchases of worms, so you don't care about the console player or the many bugs you have in games released. I've supported Team 17/ Worms since the SNES days, but I will NO LONGER spend a dime on your products until you fix the bugs with your games! Listen to your customers! Please fix this and release an update for this game!!
