I'm guessing all the proxy servers are located in the US because I haven't seen a proxied ping yet less that 350 ms. Kind of negates the point of having proxy servers, because the host invariably kicks me for having a ping above 200ms.

"dont ping google when ur joining" Because that uses so much bandwidth huh?
Since however many patches ago the game seems to use a rediculous amount of bandwidth when its trying to connect. I run a ping to google.com alongside it and it times out whenever the game is trying to connect to people. In addition, 9/10 the host will boot me because it lags me out in the lobby and gives me a ping reading of 10,000ms or something equally stupid.
I agree with all the points here. I've pretty much given up on this game now since not being able to connect on the 11th May Patch. I'll check back in 6 months, because I honestly don't think the majority of the problems will be fixed AT LEAST before that long, if at all. Its all well and good blaming the pirates, but there are "deficiencies" in impulse that just suggest neglect. There are so many robust, feature-rich multiplayer services out there its inexcusable
No need for me to forward ports, I have turned Vista and Router firewall off. There is still usually always one person I can't connect to in a game. If these people are the host of the game it boots me out and tells me "NAT has failed". Router is BT Home Hub 2.
Told ya. Where is Extracide now lol?
Wow I bet your life is interesting. Do you just try and make everything you do as boring as possible?
I personally hate the houlier-than-thou forums of some games where everyone has to pretend to be an enlightened renaissance man. Anybody who is offended by something someone has written on an internet forum needs to get a grip. People insulting each other is what the internet is for and it makes it much more interesting.
Your post just bumped this.
"nd were are you from? france? Canada? Like they have ever been in a war. and No neather of them have. Dont bother saying the war of 1812 because Canada wasnt even created yet." Surely its better to not be in a war than to start a war, inflict millions of civilian casualties, and withdraw years later in humiliation.
Anyway, let's take about how the US got it's ass kicked in Vietnam.
Sounds like the topic starter is a bit of dipshit.
This is why you need some indication of rank for each player. A shithawk who always quits will end up with a crappy rank and you can just boot him whenever he gets into the lobby.
Yep he has all the time in the world in your theorycrafted make believe game where demigods only fight each other in 1 vs 1, but in an actual game with other demigods and minions he doesn't have time at all.

"Popping mist and bat swarming costs mana. If erebus is a fair way into a fight, chances are he's pretty low on mana, quite often I've got enough for a finishing bite and that's it.

8) Make this thread witty and original
If its just a bit overpowered then its not overpowered?
With the exception of silence all those can be countered with bat swarm out the danger area or if that doesn't work pop mist to become invulnerable.
I'm an Erebus player and I think Erebus is OP, so I guess I'm just in the 10% of the people you are talking about.
Should have had an open beta.
People can play 2 vs 1. In custom game. Pantheon is no place for it. Can't imagine what the Devs were thinking implementing this.
