[quote who="Frogboy" reply="8" id="2206742"]You can play 5 on 5 online pretty readly IF you can find 10 people who have good connections and high end systems. But when you're relying on connecting to a bunch of strangers, things get a lot more complex.[/quote] Yeah I am getting that impression, even if I have everything setup correctly it still relies on everyone else doing the same which we have no control over :(
Sorry I should have clarified 5v5 without AI, without all human players the game is pointless. Will update the OP Trigeminal: Was that 5v5 all human players, or were there some A.I in there (In other words you started a 5v5 human only game, and no one dropped for the entire game).
[quote who="Trigeminal" reply="2" id="2206706"] I have been playing 5v5 for the last week. The problem is less about the game as it is finding 10 people who can get together and are willing to try a 5v5.[/quote] Really you can constistently get into 5v5? We never have a lack of people it just seems that when the last one or two people join the pings start going yellow (even if the connection list says they are connected) so it doesn't let us start the g
[quote who="Jdub121686" reply="1" id="2206699"]...Stop Whining, They are basically rewriting the entire network code and multiplayer system in like 2-3 weeks when it should take like alot longer... You people need to be a little more understanding. don't talk about bad service, because this isnt bad service I've never seen a company working so feverishly to make everyone have an enjoyable experience.[/quote] I'm not whining, I'm asking if anyone
Has anyone pulled off a 5v5 ( without any A.I players ) with the new patch? Also how about 4v4 ( without any A.I players ), have they been steady now? We bought this game assuming we would be able to play 5v5 (since there are 5 of us that play), so it's going to be a real kick in the nuts if that isn't going to be possible. Are we ever going to be able to 5v5, or should we just get a refund and play something else?
[quote who="Rocah" reply="6" id="2204768"]You really should have 9 people join pretty much at the same time if you want to test it, thats when the current system really starts having problems. Joining one at a time has a significantly higher success rate.[/quote] I agree... we can get a 3v3 going easily enough if we open 1 slot, then open the next slots one at a time as each player goes green. If everyone starts joining at the same time, and
If you could change a custom game slot to "Reserve for friend" it would be useful. The problem with custom games at the moment is you get a bunch of randoms filling up the slots. The ability to host a game, change a number of slots for friends only would solve this and might be a quick fix. I guess it's more of an issue at the moment because connecting is still so flakey and people often have to rejoin etc.
I hope you guys are listening to your customers, I haven't heard much people request scheduled gaming - I have heard many people request joining as a team (at any random time with random friends they choose). This is the impression that I get from most people anyhow (could be wrong) I really hope you put more effort into the features that the majority of the customers want and don't waste time on misdirection.

[quote who="InfiniteVengeance" reply="6" id="2203676"]Dyslexia has little to do with whether you capitalize or punctuate your sentences.[/quote] Actually it can have a big effect on grammar, spelling etc. And there are different degrees of it.
The base towers need to be buffed, they are pretty useless and no one seems to play with towers on hard.
[quote who="si1foo" reply="18" id="2203089"] asshole english is my native tounge but if u like taking the mic out off people with dyslexia then fgo ahead u mother fucking retarded asshole[/quote] If you are serious and not taking the piss, which I doubt based on your previous posts (since you could have just said so) - then you can still take your time and use a spelling/grammar checker.

Yeah the only thing worse than teammates feeding is having a rage quitter on your team or someone who gives up early and quits. So it can be pretty risky, especially if they have a regalus who might get the kill instead of the towers.
I agree, at least learn some very basic punctuation. Writing like that does not make you one of the cool kids and will only cause people to ignore your posts. My grammar is by no means perfect, but at least it is readable (afaik).
Yeah by the time you get your last bite mana isn't normally much of an issue - so it probably won't make a difference
It's pretty obvious... besides you don't want to change too many at once, one at a time is the best way.
Paragraphs man, paragraphs.
Wait and see, as an erebus player I really don't think it will end up being that big a deal - we are pretty hard to kill in most cases now anyway. I don't think these changes went live in todays patch anyway.
They really need to put a message about port forwarding IN the game so that people that don't visits forums know about it.
Fingers crossed, hopefully it's fixed once and for all!
You only have to wait one more hit then you can use it in exactly the same way :p
Regardless, you are obviously going to get many posts like that, and there is no reason why they can't be handled more politely by company representatives. The fact is frogboy is a rep, and his actions reflect on the whole company and the game - in addition to that he should be well aware that the frustration of customers is justified, considering many of us have spent more time in the lobby then playing the game. Quite frankly in the state the game was released, stardock should b
