Desyncs havent been that bad lately for me at least. But I did see 2 today. One at the very begining of a game, and one right befor my team was about to lose a game. I dont think anyone on my team did it, it was a very funny game that was an epic fail for both sides. (they had 20 more kills than us and a warscore advantage, but it lasted a lonnggggg time. They were lvl 20 when were were 15.) O yea, It seems that it usualy happens when someone drops b

Pacov, You know I am a pug player who has no problem with honest premades. I would not mind having some friends that I play with regularly in a "premade". I dont htink the issue is that most of the pugs dont want to have a set team, but rather its honestly not woth the minimal effort. Seriously its not alot of work to make a team, and find friends. As it stands I have had some god games with some people and I put notes to that effect. But for me, I honestly do
Buying stuff incrementally is a must do I think. THere is no reason not to get scaled helm, Banded armor, and scaled armor asap. For the money these are great things, Later in the game when slot are full, Ill sell scaled to get nimoth chest, and banded to get the harbok.
A decent Reg can hold the mana side while supporting. When I play reg, snipe takes priority, then mines, and then it goes to MAB (or maim is nessisary). It is VERY mana intensive in a fight, but I take scaled helm, plenor, and velmish. And usually Harbak and nimoths chest as my stuff. It is a very squishy build to be sure, but slows go a long way when your running. Also the key it to keep pressue on that lane, not dominate it. Reg is more of
Rawrrrr you got it all wrong man. I dont have a desire to set up a team, I will play wither others i like if I see them on, but as it stands, I just want to play a quick game. I dont want all premades to split up, and remember this isnt all about premades, its about pugs who stack teams too. I enjoy playing premade teams they can make for good games, but I do not what to play agianst a team that is all 80% vs a team that is all 30%. In that case, the 30% most l
yes.. THis is getting a bit repetative.
[quote who="nguyenmb" reply="15" id="2405086"] Why people think people make premades to make the game less fun for other people baffles me. People make premades so they can play with their friends, or with other people they enjoy playing with. [/quote] You are partially right, HONEST premades want to have fun and enjoy playing in a competative game. But people are not complaining about the honest premades. Its the
Ok for some reason my screnie didnt record and im a bit pissed about it. I just played a game vs Nightlex who is apparently friends with pyeek, and a pug named vrednuga. I will leave out vrednuga as he didnt seem to get invovlved althought they did move around so they were all on the same team. http://pantheon.demigodthegame.com/game/1020878/player/43878/ So that is the game I lost.&n
Thank you Cosmoe, that is a great start to the thread.
Exxxcentric, I tend to agree with you, but there are problems. PRemades are voerall not the issue at all, premades are infact good for the game. BUT, you talk about communication. I am a pug player, and sometimes, other pugs just wont chat... at all. So there is no comunication. Or sometimes they want to do their own thing no matter what, or sometimes they are a new player. In the end you say that good premades advertise it and was a good fight th
[quote who="obscenitor" reply="46" id="2403342"] Quoting Dielan, reply 45 Sedna. She has the speed to ninja cap every portal flag on the map, and 1000 damage pounce is pretty useful.I would say Sedna is one of the worst lage game DGs in all honesty. Once giants hit the field she can't really wander around the map safely any more. [/quote] When I play her, you dont "wander". MY best buld starts as a healer, and takes pounce a b
I see that people want a list of premades, but to me that seems pointless as many of them are good people who want a good game. I propose that we list premades that primarily pug/noob stomp here. Additionally we could put in people who are pugs, but habitually host games and try to stack their side. These are the people that are causing issues in the community, not honest premades who are looking for good matches. Oh and btw I am a pug exclusivly, and I h
[quote who="Polynomial" reply="4" id="2399313"] Its so silly Stardock shows more interest in supporting the game than GPG. [/quote] I agree, but this is a stardock forum... I never go to the gpg ones, so I dont know if they are active there.
[quote who="pacov" reply="23" id="2403317"] Since the overlay I have avoided countless pug stomps. Its to the point of silliness. There are so many premades who only want to pug stomp, and that give all premades a bad name. Additionaly there are many random pugs who try to stack one side so it is a stomp. 1 - I'm really glad to see someone write "random pugs who try to stack one side so it is a stomp." All too often its just a generic comment about premad
I have a better but similar idea, Ill make a threa aobut it in the muliplayer area. It will be list of premades that only want to pug stomp. Really those are the only ones that are the issue. Friends/premades are not inhearantly bad, in fact they are good for the game.... But many of them out there just want pug/noob stomps.
[quote who="nomilarac" reply="32" id="2403996"] Quoting MisterHankey, reply 31 Quoting Fuzzy Logic, reply 24 Some people wonder why more players won't go online. The reality is online games are populated by childish, egotistical dickheads who have no clue as to what good manners and politeness are. Some of the replies here are perfect examples. As a gaming community you should be encouraging more people to play online instead
Oddly enough, for a while (last month) this happened to me al the time, only when i was winning... In recent weeks i think its only happened once.
Your speed is ok, the upload speed is the limited factor (but your plenty fast for a 4v4, and probably 5v5). What are you sim speeds durring those games? Your rig should be fine, but many have found that the sound settign can bring a sim speed way down. try turring off your sould if you find your sim speed to be low. Are oyu sure there is nothign on your network eating up the upload speed. If you hit tab in the game it brings up
[quote who="NeutralGood" reply="58" id="2403259"]I think once this overlay comes out it will be harder to get a game going since people want to play with their friends while people who dont have friends want a balanced game. Honestly it's rare to get both. Worse it already takes up to 30 min to start a game. [/quote] Not trying to be argumentative, but i have to disagree. Most of my games are probably played at off peak times (us east weekdays, mornings).&nbs
Ok, I noticed that if some one joins and leave, they still show up in the familiarty rating. This seems to always happen. I would all so like to say THANK YOU to Frogboy for getting this out. I cannont belive how many people pug and especialy premade try to stack teams so that one side stands no chance. They sure do seem to get irritated when you call them out
You guys got it all wrong.... This suit is black nooot
Stats, as in Number of games, and win% are usefull, so os the familiarity %. I will play with anyone if the teams seem to be balanced. BUT it seems to me, premades especial, want to stack their team with people who have 80% win rates and play agianst people with 10% win rates. Since the overlay I have avoided countless pug stomps. Its to the point of silliness. There are so many premades who only want to pug stomp, and that give all
The experiance rating to me is worthless. Just look at number of games played, and the win %.
Keep in mind that stats do not update immediatly. I belive all player stats are updated at the end of the day, each day, so that may throw things off a bit for new accounts.
You really cant argue with them if thats their policy. Check out http://www.dslreports.com/ they cover al sorts of providers, cable too. If they are in fact throttleing you, it is becasue of the P2P type connection. Try using a torrent application and see if it trottles back with that, so you can see if you are in fact being throttles. You may beable to have them stop if you let them know it is becasue of a game and
