I don't know... I visited the Xbox forums; there seems to be a lot of people there who are new at chess and not very familiar with the rules (i.e., pawn promotion, castling). Then again, we have people here who are new at chess, too.

Also, it looks like a lot of people confuse the chess variants with classic chess, and then claim there's a bug.

However, it looks like most of the posts strongly confirm one thing: there's a lot of cheating (with White refusing to move) going on -- that I can believe.

Hi KHollister,

When I logged into Chessmaster Live today there was an update for the game.

Any details on what was fixed?

Appreciate the help!

p.s. Thanks Ubisoft for continuing to support this great game.

I just saw your post on Xbox.com a while ago...

Unfortunately, no word on what was corrected. From posts I've read, it doesn't fix the problem with Message Chess (for those with a PC, that's Correspondence Chess). I haven't seen anything to indicate the problem leading to cheating has been corrected, either.

Nonetheless, it is good to see that an update was released. It means they're still working on things.

Thanks for the update!

Knock on wood we'll get more help soon as the community grows.
