[quote who="Warskullx" reply="18" id="2214157"] quoting post One of our frustrations (and this is one of the reasons I’m not a fan of MP games in the first place) is how inconsiderate some people are. We spent a lot of time trying to figure out why people were getting “disconnected” right when a game starts. Well, it turns out, from looking at the logs, is that some people, having only 2 on 2 or 3 vs. 3 where an AI player had to be substituted to fill

First of all ragequitting is not a fenomenon unique to demigod. Secondly, ragequitting does not mean leaving when you cant possibly win, it is getting angry and leaving because you were killed. Imagine leaving a team-game of starcraft because your first marine was killed by the opposing teams zergling. Thats what ragequitting is.

Obviously it is going to take longer to find games if you have to match only humans but I think everyone should be able to understand how that is preferable. Trying to do any form of matchmaking is pointless when there are bots in the game as those games degenerate to who can farm the AI the most. In addition to that the inclusion of bots in pantheon (havent tried skirmish) seems broken as in rougly 50% of the games with bots I have been placed in a team with another pl

Rework the entire favor gain system, it is horribly broken.

This doesnt matter as long as favor calculation is as badly designed as it is. The winning team almost always takes 90%+ of the favor so there is no reason to stay in the game for the loosers.

war3 has 12 players, just saying...

[quote who="Scyle" reply="4" id="2171458"]what about the favor points still resetting?[/quote] wouldnt mind an ETA on that as well

Im not sure it will solve the problem but it is something that should be done anyway.

I think the point is that characters who rely on skill based damage are at a disadvantage after lvl 15 since after that point skills doesnt scale while standard damage keeps rising. To say that it doesnt matter because the game should end by then anyway is poor argument as it doesnt explain why some of the heroes should be more powerful than the others.

[quote who="CariElf" reply="19" id="2162303"]We are also very close to fixing the favor point bugs. [/quote] Thats good, I have suspended my playing until its fixed.

The problem isnt with 1UP, the problem is with Metacritic. And while I normally dont have a problem with aggregation, it breaks down in terms of reviews since there is no golden standard for how things should be done. Sure you could argue that 1UP should cater to the majority of the gaming media where 75-80% is average instead of 50% but that would just worsen the problem instead of taking a stand against it. As long as different media use different yardsticks for grading game

[quote who="EvilTwinTepe" reply="7" id="2155151"] Were you playing against GOMEN, Darkheart, and Aone? Funny - I played with them last night - silence! I at least tend to say 'hey' and giove a GG towards the end of a match. Also always fun to compliment the guy who just chased you half-way across the world for that killing blow and survived the towers. I have to say though, so far I haven't gotten any smack-talk or nastiness - those that have been chatty were pretty cool

Achivements and favor points are busted. I havent played many games yet but I think that every single one I have played have had people disconnecting. In one of the games all 9 other players disconnected one after another. At least I think so, if there was anyone left they must have been really bad players.

It depends on what it is that is causing the loss of points. If it is because things arent getting saved properly to their databse then they probably cant restore anything.

[quote who="Neoauld" reply="6" id="2153082"] Quoting Trigeminal, reply 2 Quoting Kreakor, reply 1The game mechanics are screwed, it has to be one of the most bugged releases ive ever played. Wow, are you sure you play computer games? This is far from the buggiest. hes obviously exaggerating or hes just retarded..or hes a petty upset little whiner anyone who calls this game buggy on release should stay q

I started playing yesterday and my achivements are bugged and my games didnt register.

Is this a recent bug? If it is not then it is a mindboggling that it has not been fixed, considering the enormous achivement focus in games today. Imagine an Xbox360 game where your achivements coniniously reset, the outrage would be enormous.
