I've not played since near release and I'm shocked by how bad the community has gotten. In the game, on the board, you guys are a load of monkeys. What the hell happened?

[quote who="SleepyForest" reply="34" id="2301852"]Minion build can definetly kill 1v1....you're just a bad player.[/quote] You are an awful poster. If you feel he's wrong explain how and back yourself up with facts, otherwise you're just making a tit of yourself. Nobody cares about how good you think you are.

I have a better solution, don't let regulas farm over 30k worth of items in the first place.

I am feeling very negative about it. I'm a real macro-bot and it looks like that part of the game is getting dumbed down and cut out in favour of a more micro orientated wc3 style. The idea of automining and command grouped production queueing is mortifying and it will lower the skill ceiling drastically. They're trying to compromise by making the game easy for noobs while still satisfying the koreans and I don't think they have what it takes to pull it off. For instance the cartoony

Bad 4chan jokes should stay on 4chan.

I have never gained enough favour points to buy an item despite supposedly gaining 100+ every game. Is there any known way to avoid the bug? Some of those items look pretty neat.

Erebus has particularly weak minoins but that kind of build is exceedingly powerful on sedna and the queen.

Picking your demigod to counter your opponent's is a bitch move.

They aren't particularly weak or difficult to use heroes and they don't need items to be effective apart from idols and a mana item if you're going for a build with lots of spammable spells. It sounds to me like you just need to work on your basic game sense. Never, ever let an enemy demigod touch you unless you're positive that you can win the fight. You should be dancing around just out of their reach soaking up xp and gold. Wait for them to make a mistake and then punish them with a quick

I prefer to ignore towers of light and focus on spamming hammer on creep waves to gain an experience advantage.

It doesn't go through instantly. It took my name about a week.

Most people who play are plain ignorant and don't understand the difference between p2p and client/server. I see lots of people, mostly swedes (surprise surprise) who kick anyone with a ping above 100.

It's a tough call. Derek Smart has lunatic strength and incredible stanima but Brad Wardell has bees and he strikes me as a biter.

[quote who="Colonel_Jessep" reply="2" id="2166704"]Well, it does say: Player statistics are updated once daily at midnight EST. But favor points are gone. And try comp stomping on skirmish now, the AIs are nightmare AIs now, so much more fun. At least until I can play against other players...[/quote] I'd still rather have no AIs. Being forced to play bots defeats the purpose of multiplayer.

My favour has been stuck on -10 for almost a week.

He's great at holding flags and seiging but when it comes down to duking it out with other players I can never seem to catch those overwhemlingly popular ranged heroes. Even with the + speed favor item, boots of speed and a wand of speed I just can't lay a finger on them. All I can do is get assists with boulder throw.

[quote who="Tycoh" reply="11" id="2161838"]It doesn't appear to decrease performance.[/quote] Maybe on faster computers but it crippled the game on my mid-range.

It happened to me earlier today too. 2v4 with 5 AIs. I didn't even bother playing.

[quote who="Neil Banfield" reply="2" id="2159841"]I have checked and have been told that the game is only supported on 32 bit XP, 32 & 64 bit Windows Vista and 32 and 64 bit Windows 7 (once Windows 7 is released - not on betas)[/quote] So does that mean you wont help us? Should I give up and ask for a refund?

BUMP

I have the same problem. No update tab in impulse.

[quote who="Tridus" reply="21" id="2157084"]I didn't realize so many people actually used XP 64. It was never meant for home use.[/quote] It was popular among high end users before vista came out. It's not that uncommon an OS and it'd be unheard of if gpg decided not to support it.

I would not advise people to purchase the game as it stands. The most pain free way to find matches is to use hamachi with a pirated version. Purchasing a legit copy just isn't worth it.

Bump. Some kind of official responce or recognition would be nice. We clearly have an issue here.

The bots are terrible, constantly screw up the team's laning and feed the other team gold by suiciding. Why the hell am I being forced to play with them in skirmish mode? The entire point of multiplayer is to play with other humans and if I wanted to play bots I'd stick to single player. As it stands the only way to play with an all human team is to through custom games which are shaky and suffer from constant "failed to join game"s and nat failures. All I can say is that this was a terrible
