Pantheon should be random... Custom games or skirmishes, teams are fine. Just my opinion... Ever play a game where you join as random and get paired against a team on vent or what not... Fun stuff... Not really. If they added it so only randoms vs randoms, and teams vs teams, then I could prolly live with it... But if not... And I find myself constantly going up against these premade teams all on some
[quote who="Kryopsis" reply="2" id="2161925"]Or, you know, rather than wait for a PM you can follow the game's progress by yourself, like a big boy.[/quote] I am a big boy... I can go to the bathroom all by myself. And yes I have been following everything since prior to release... I just figured asking someone nicely for a PM when it's fixed saves me from reading the forums and hastily typing a peeved rant, as I actually enjoy the game when it's working correctl
Someone send me a private message when they fix the Favor stuff, and the Panetheon rankings please. That way it only takes me 2 clicks to see if it's fixed and I can play again, instead of searching. Thank you...
[quote who="SwdPwnzDggr" reply="3" id="2161839"]I really like the game but i almost don't wanna play because it keeps frustrating me when I trying to get the Favor items....[/quote] That's the reason I haven't been playing... I mean the game is supposed to be an online competition... Well the Rankings are incorrect, that is a fact, there is no way I lost 3 custom game3 when I was at the vet with my dog, did my cat play? I don't ever play custom ga
[quote who="Javaslinger" reply="1" id="2157441"]I bought swift anklets (15% speed boost) and that coupled with the initial purchase of the boots of speed gave me a tremendous early game speed advantage...[/quote] What he said...
Cooldown in Dutch is cooldown? Weird stuff...
Slaughter needs to not be an option if the game is going to put in AI's... Any decent player will go straight for an AI controlled DG... On dominate, this game should only be an option if the sides are evenly balanced with human players... Just my thoughts...
Don't worry bout stats currently... Pantheon actually doesn't seem like it has been tracking much of anything since the 17th, not like it was accurate to begin with, and also they are gonna be reset. Right now is a good time to learn, practice and what not...
I too generally dislike RTS MP games... As I can not micro/macro/APM/whatever as fast as most of them, nor can I remember every single unit/building/ability hotkey, etc. Which is why I like this game, and I do fairly well on Pantheon.
[quote who="Zack52" reply="2" id="2154086"]Pantheon site hasn't been working since the 17th for me, i can't imagine it only singled me out.[/quote] You aren't, I'm pretty sure, alot of things are currently being updated as my Pantheon ranking too has not updated in a few days... I'm not worried they said they'd be resetting and are fixing it.
Not an expert but I'd have to agree on the P4... Also some people have gotten better performance with turning down the sound options, /nosound, etc... From what I've read.
[quote]Getting a bit sick of the 'omgfixurconnectionnub' comments. Some people legitimately cant play the game multiplayer due to various issues Frogboy has covered. Myself with all ports forwarded properly and being able to play custom games without too much issue, i can never get a Pantheon or Skirmish game starting with any more than 1-2 people(including me) in it. I am fully aware of how the connection window works, it's a failing on the games side and likely due to laten
Did you change your name? I changed mine once played a few games and they showed up under my original account name. Also I wouldn't worry too much about it currently, as they will be reseting the Pantheon when they fix the issues that are currently affecting favor, rankings, etc... Basically if you have another account name try searching for that... If not, don't worry too much about it as it will be fixed soon, I'm sure, as of right now the stuff doesn't update accura
MP working fine for me currently... My ADHD apparently can let me sit through a few hanging connections windows, shocking others can't. Also too few people still don't know how to interpret the connection window... Having more hung games due to canceling then due to people's not configured connection. Sad too because I posted a giant post about the connection window for Pantheon that appraently went unread, and I still see people bitching about wh
300+ Anything 300+ you get hiccups... Those annoying every 5 or so second .5 second freezes. Actually I think they start popping about 270ms. I can't stand playing Pantheon when you see someone over 300... Because... If he's on the opposite team, someone on my team can't take it and eventually leaves... If he's one my team... I flip out going dude, fix your stuff, or move to country with some better quality internet, and then he eventually
Game runs insanely smooth on max settings including AA... My system is not even that great.

Ahh crap... I put this in the wrong sub-forum. Sorry...
I have only played Pantheon, so I can only assert that this following stuff comes from playing just that... Maybe it relates to Custom/Skirmish, I really have no clue, as I only play the afore mentioned. SO many people do not understand what to interpret from the connection window... That's half of people's problems. From looking at the connection window... You can tell if it's your connection or someone elses... THE CONNECTION WINDOW IS THE LITTLE BOX THAT POPS IN THE B
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="2" id="2148189"]We're looking at it. Basically what it boils down to the in-game disconnect response is too aggressive. We're going to be increasing that. Here's where it affects things: 1. At the start of the game, there's a bit of data that has to be sent between players. Well, if the people aren't really well connected to each other (let's say lots of hops) it will cause players to "leave the game" at the start. The solutio
Same only recently I'm having maybe 1 in 8 games where I hear Player has Left, and I find myself vs all AI's... I haven't had this problem until yesterday night. I'm not sure what the problem is, but I have never had any connectivity issues with any game online ever on this computer/router/internet provider/etc...
Ya theres a time limit on them... Not sure if intended or not. But after a while they will crumble... It's a decent length though, it's not like its 15seconds. They will also crumble if you place more then the current skill allows, it will crumble the oldest one... Skill order is somethign like 2, 4, 6, etc. But ya, there seems to be a timelimit on towers... And I think if it's intended it's a good idea...
Theres a ton of posts about this... Best thing is if you get a freeze go do something else for 10 or so minutes come back and it should be working. It has somethign to do with somethign I have no clue how to explain, but they are aware of it and they said something about more servers tomorrow for something to fix it or what not. It's not on your end... Just be patient. It's more frustrating if you continually exit the game come back and repeat over and over, then just waiting
That happens sometimes... Just exit out to the original menu, or leave the game, come back and all 4 will be back to select, thats sometimes how people can get wrong guys for wrong sides. I've had it happen where only had 2 selections, hit back, game back 3 selections, hit back, came back 5, and again one more time and finally all 4 normal??? Don't worry, either exit game, or hit back and it should change... At least for me.
The menu hangs and freezes are very annoying... I think they know about this issue and are workign on it. Generally when I get a menu freeze, I don't bother frustrating myself continually restarting and trying again and again... I just exit out go do somethign else for 10-30mns and come back and it's generally better. I'm sure the issue will be fixed soon...
It is frustrating... But I've been playing and I CONSTANTLY see Stardock guys on the irc helping as many people as they can, I can't get to upset when I see them answering as many questions as humanly possible, and even setting up custom games to help people who's connection problems are actually their fault. I don't think it will takes months to fix the MP stuff... I think they will get it sorted out soon. With all that being said, the game is extremely enjoyable when you pla
