Because we paid full whack for the game at launch which was broken and almost unplayable, and this was to say sorry basically, yet the lack of paypal use with it means its not usable for me and problably alot of other europeans too - not really a very good sorry wouldn't you agree?
Wow seriously you cant use paypal with a coupon... Maestro is never supported from US based stores which means I cant use it either - and I'm sure alot of people from Europe are in the same boat. Was going to get the Kudos games but now you miss out on a sale. Whats with the short coupon lifespans and these crappy restrictions?
Thanks for the updates. And yes keep these coming!! A problem with so many bigger developers now is that they barely communicate to their community. Keeping your community involved in both ideas and and updates being made certainly seems to produce the best results and it keeps everyone interested, excited and confident in the dev team. Keep up the good work :)
Play skirmish whilst you wait :)
Fantastic work on the guides. Going to give them a read now as I'm new to the DOTA'esque genre :) These should help alot.
Any update on when this is getting fixed, pretty annoying?
When is the proxy server update rolling out to hopefully fix many of our connection woes?? I've been busy programming Pong in XNA today for my Uni Cwk so i'm slightly out of date with the news.
Gameranger doesnt start my game when a host fires it up. No idea why its happening as i posted in another thread. Looks like i'll have to stick with the broken normal connecting.
[quote who="mrhankey21" reply="4" id="2157220"] Quoting Lucifon, reply 3 I cant get it to work if anyone could help me. It seems gameranger isn't even attempting to fire up the game, it goes from joining game to returning from game instantly. Firewall is all set to allow, ports are open, checked in task manager processes when firing it up and Demigod.exe doesnt even appear. In GameRanger options its all aiming at the right .exe and folder etc. Version .93 trying to

I often chat but noone replies :( Kinda annoying. I'm sure some of this is down to the fact due to the crappy multiplayer setup at the moment I only ever get in 2v2s
/signed Playing with Bots when I chose to play with humans just ends up feeling "pointless"
Sorry for the noob question. So favor points are the persistant aspect of the game? In the pantheon everyone works for that side to win the overall tournament for either side, right? How are they awarded? And when do the pantheons end - when one team wins or a timer? Also can you switch sides after a pantheon is over? Sorry for the questions, and to slightly hijack the thread but its related. So far i've barely got any :( But I've only played 3-4 matches. Have to say if
Thanks Frogboy do you have any idea when next week - towards the end or early in the week? I never really played much DOTA on WC3 (only abit) but I'm absolutely loving the game. Problem is I, like the OP, always end up with 2v2's which often result in 1 or more people leaving the match turning it into a bot match.
1.00 is the same version I have....works fine. Well fine as in I can play when the servers decide to find a match :P
Id really really like a right click and move mouse to turn the camera angle. Really annoys me having to press a key to tilt the camera, especially when everytime you die it goes and pans the camera on an angle, which I then have to reset each time.
No fixes will be made until next week now which is abit of a bummer :( Kinda makes me not want to play until this stuffs sorted. It's still super difficult to get in a game and theres still really big issues :(
Great list. I was thinking you meant which Demigod's need to be better. Which on that note I really really would like to see ...Reg (? - crossbow guy) get a visual revamp. He looks like an absolute goon, yet he suits my playstyle more than any of the others. One of the most unnapealing characters there which is really annoying as some of the character designs are fantastic. I know many will say who cares if you enjoy how he plays but its actually quite an essential "feeling". For exam
[quote who="techubus" reply="10" id="2148772"]Pretty sad, but this is exactly why I have avoided even trying Hamachi despite the good things I've heard about it. A good service, capable of letting you play when you have issues with a companies matchmaking system, but its infested with pirates. [/quote] Why avoid it? Myself and friends use it often when games have poor servers online etc. It just runs alot smoother when all we want to do is CPU matches o
This is my first day of properly playing but I can say its not great at all. Dread to think what yesterday was like. Takes an age to get into a game, and everytime it does barely any of the players are actually connecting. All my matches tonight have been 2v2, then if your team mate leaves its just you and a team of bots which is just not fun. Why does the game show a list of players in the connections list where 4 out of 8 of them have no connection status what so
I'm looking for decent team working players to play with. I'm new to the game but I feel i have a pretty good grasp of it already, although I cant say im skillfull. Everytime I play my teammates dont communicate what so ever and I feel totally alone.
I cant find the name of your hamachi network anywhere on there, am i missing something. Tried registering but its down for maintenance apparently when I get to the last phase of registration. Pretty sick of sitting here waiting for a match when it just isn't going to put me in one. Bought the game yesterday and was lucky to get in a match this morning which I had to leave sadly, yet tonight I just cant seem to get into anything.
I get this message after sitting waiting for a game for a while if its not going to connect. I have all ports open, IP in the DMZ, no firewall blocking it - it should be working.
Exact same as Luck here. The issue certainly isn't on my behalf yet I have to sit for absolutely ages to get in a game. I'm sat on Patheon right now as I type, and have been for the past 20 minutes trying to get in games but people just dont connect then the status sits there. What adds to the annoyance is on Skirmish when you have to sit with the Demigod in the background constantly repeating their sound loop to drive you absolutely mad whilst waiting and waiting for a game.&nbs
Good to see upgrades being done, hope it helps
