Hey guys & gals. I'm gonna rant a little, but nothing much. It's quite irritating when you hit "1" (for example) as Erebus, and Bite doesn't go off. Or when you hit "3" with Regulus, and MoTB doesn't go off either. What's even more irritating is when you use the wand that gives your the +25% speed boost : if I use this, 90% of the time it's in order to escape as fast as possible. If so, why the hell my DG should stop running, cast the wand, then I have to click som

However, if you let them get too much gold, and free time, you're screwed.[/quote] As a Regulus user, I use to get Scaled Helm + Gauntlets of Brutality at the beginning...plus Angel Fury. Gives a nice DPS output, and I can take a DG head on for quite some time. Allows me to level steadily up to the point where it's not fun anymore.

[quote who="the_Monk" reply="5" id="2165661"] If the scanner is telling you that your ports aren't open.....then they aren't open. Simple as that. [/quote] No, I disagree. My ports are open. But where the problem might lie with your site is that it needs to ping the router. Mine is set not to respond to ping request :) So if for starters it doesn't see the ip adress as being online, well...

Waiting for a fix @ fidelcastrol, You may have followed my guide "to the letter" but that doesn't mean something UPSTREAM of your router isn't still blocking traffic. Please

[quote who="GunslingerBara" reply="8" id="2165070"]I'm sorry but I did not develop the networking system. The people who did, however, are hard at work in resolving all of the connection problems. We have come a long way since launch.

[quote who="GunslingerBara" reply="6" id="2164885"] 2. The time taken is the amount of time we need in order to connect all of the players. It is directly attributable to each player's connection speed, so if a slow player is chosen, it will take longer for all of the other players to connect to that player. However, there may be some minor things we can do to decrease the wait time. I'll see what T-Man thinks. [/quote] I'm

[quote who="Ratsy" reply="3" id="2164415"]I dont think your friend is the only one, i havent connected to a single multiplayer game yet... either i get kiced out of pantheon mode or am connecting forever on custom mode... rubbish. To tell the truth i've stopped trying gonna try again next week since i loved dota so much and from some single player games i've gone through this seems like a great game. Then i'll probably be out of (game)energy to try it again. [/quote]

[quote who="PurplePaladin" reply="1" id="2164211"]You might have wanted to paruse the forum first, they've posted updates every day since release, including a video with SD personel talking about the situation. Try the Journal Forum area. [/quote] Thanks, will do later, have to go to work ;)

Hi guys, First of all, great game, great ideas in there, lots of fun. At least for me, because I managed to get everything running into multiplayer. Had to do a bit of port forwarding to be able to even connect to a game, not talking about hosting one (but now I can, though I understand that no one can connect to your game if behind a router without forwarded ports). Anyway, a friend of mine can't connect or
