I had the same problem today after update, don't worry, they will fix it soon enough tho.

Agree with both posters above about most things, managed to enter some multiplayer games yesterday and it was really addictive, like the first time i played dota (when it was new, havent played it since). The things i personally think needs attention are more heroes, more strategic maps, right now its just running between flags and capturing the ones with the best bonuses. Ie shortcuts between lanes that are a bit "hidden" (ala dota), points of interest other then flags, maybe
[quote who="asthasr" reply="10" id="2141974"]The NAT facilitator is a piece of the software used to negotiate connections, Odeus. They're unhappy with it--not with the users who are having problems.[/quote] Ok, cool, thanks for the clarification. :)
Good to hear that you are working on it and i hope it will get resolved asap so i can start enjoying the game, getting a bit fed up with singleplayer and bots :) And i hope you fix the problems BEFORE you start playing ;)
Have to agree about the gameplay being really good, even tho i have yet to successfully connect in MP. Personally i don't really care about a campaign, you only play a campaign once or twice anyways, what lasts is the MP (warcraft 3 anyone?) but i understand some people do. What i hope for in the future is several more heroes, and more varied maps (all feels about the same, would be cool with ie a forest map, ice map, desert map etc). More varied "armies/spawns/soldier
[quote who="Istari" reply="5" id="2141868"]Let us distinguish Demigod from the NAT fascilitator which is not part of Demigod for a moment. Is Demigod finished? Absolutely. Are we happy with the state Demigod is in? Definitely. Are we happy with the performance of the NAT fascilitator? Clearly not. But the NAT fascilitator isn't part of the game. Its failings certainly impact the multiplayer aspect of the game to be sure. But a person playing Demigod could replace the NAT fascilitat
I was looking for that option as well, i use a computer monitor with 16:9 and run at 1920x1080, while i can play in that resolution with no problem i would like the option of playing in 720 to conserve hardware performance (i often do other things while playing, and soon i will get a second monitor = more things on second monitor running) I now run in window mode which works fine, but the option would be nice.
I heard somewhere that turning down audio quality might improve framerate, not sure if it works but could be worth a shot?
While P2P might be a good idea in theory, it seems, so far at least, to fail miserably in practise. I guess it has to do with saving server costs for the company and maybe, in theory, less lag. I haven't participated in beta so would not know the extent of testing that has been done but it would seem they where far from finished when releasing the game. I really do hope its just a simple matter of tweaking some parameters in a patch and maybe upgrading their servers, but if it
Im using the same router, latest firmware version, never had any problems with any other game, and as far as peer to peer is concerned, it works perfectly fine in any other application. Tried the guide at teh top of the page, no difference at all, can't connect to any custom game and have yet to be able to successfully connect toany other game. I was really excited to play online when i got home, about 3 hours ago i started trying to join games, needless to say im not so excit
I have been trying for about 1 hour now, can't connect to anyone. I have previously played NUMEROUS online games (mmorpgs, mostly) and NEVER had to port forward or change half of my router settings to be able to play. Not that any of the steps in the guide worked, still can't connect... The only reason i bought this game was to play online since offline gets boring rather quickly. And online doesn't work... I REALLY hope this is fixed asap as it will no
I got it yesterday to try it, bought it today. So far i haven't been able to play it tho since it has been trying to find a game for about 30 minutes now, really hope this will be fixed asap as a multiplayer game with no multiplayer isnt much fun...
