OK, so did a pantheon match last night, 2v2 fortress on cataract. We ended up destroying the citadel before the last fortress to see what would happen, and when it started to collapse the game just froze. Pantheon stats don't even show record of the game.
Don't start knocking 4chan, tis an awesome sight:P I never played Dota, and haven't come across this sort of trick before in an RTS. If someone does it in a shooter then they suffer more than everyone else because whilst everything lags for this person, everyone else can still shoot everyone else.
People keep making the same counter argument of their connection not being able to handle more than a certain number of connections - fair point in a lot of cases. But that would cause lag from the moment the game started until those 2 players dropped. If it only starts to 'struggle' with that many connections 15 minutes in, different story.
[quote who="NeoVain" reply="25" id="2244800"]I just lost a little faith in the human race by reading this thread. Didnt you guys ever think of the fact that i may have been the ops own team mate that cause the high ping? its the most obvious reason since the lag stopped when he left? [/quote] you werent even in that game....
but when the guy starts laughing about it after my team quits? it just screams griefing.
but it was fine for the 15 minutes previous to this happening...
they didnt, my team did. that is a bit ambiguous looking at it, edit time....
Just finished a '3v3' game with a little less faith in the human race. One of the enemy players got the other 2 on my team to quit by spiking his ping and causing unplayable lag. As soon as my team mates left it went normal again and they played on. Is it just me, or is that a really dirty and cheap way to get a win? *edit* - they --> my team mates
yeh they stack, and the max is 14. at the end of each game it maxes the stats of the winning team, you can get a good luck at stuff then if youre quick.
Not a bad idea at all, though don't they have huge QA teams already? Who's to say we wouldn't just get lucky and not notice any bugs until proper release? That said, I'm in :P
[quote who="bender" reply="8" id="2227299"]Kyky shows 80 games played, Bronnieman shows 75. You show 35. I know some games (maybe 20%?) are not recording at all. Just by this, I would imagine it is possible you were simply outplayed by someone more experienced. Second, they both have positive records, but nothing so overwhelmingly posititve that it looks suspicious. Lastly, just to check the math, here is a screenshot to prove the feasibility. Note tha

[quote who="kstampy" reply="25" id="2209641"]I get it a lot with Erebus and UB. Before and After patch. It usually happens when I queue up a second skill while the first one is going through.

WOOT! [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e] so another all nighter ahead then.... cheers frogboy and all of stardock!
ah damn... i saw these new areas saying no posts, was gonna get that in as the first. curses!
at the risk of asking a stupid question, i thought today's update was going to be 1.01? i know it has the changes that were going to be in that, just wondering really...
ok my bad, it is. awesome :)
todays patch isnt released yet..
[quote who="Tidus1492" reply="3" id="2200715"]Dokta_t you are identified as a "leaver" in another thread. Lolz.[/quote] I think he's done it to me a couple of times... Gotta love it [e digicons]^_^[/e]
weird... just downloaded and ran that, checked a load of the ports in the range, and its saying theyre not open / reachable. weird part is ive always been able to connect fine, and appear to be using direct connect when joining lobbies. not complaining, but... meh
i believe this is being fixed along with a load of other pantheon issues in the 1.01 patch GPG are working on (i assume youre talking about pantheon), but youre right it is really annoying. havent had it chuck me in by myself though... unlucky on that front
awesomez, cheers for the update again!
