Connection problems

from Demigod Forums

Hey all...

 

I got some kind of connectivity problem...

So far I've been able to play 1-3 games online without problem, usually its one  game that starts with human players in like every 10-15 i try to search... This is on pantheon mind you...

 

And when i get a game that actually starts it takes around 10 mins then the entire game freezes... and everyone dropp, or i should say, I drop...

 

Im running Vista 64, i got i7 920, 6 gigs ddr3 ram and 4870x2 gfx card.

I got a 10Mb connection, not great but it should be sufficient, I've disabled the windows firewall, my own firewall, and I'm in the dmz area of my router, meaning it doesn't interfear with my gaming.

Can anyone explain how to fix this, cause atm, it feels like i bought a single player game...

 

Thanks in advance

I'm having the exact same issues. Running Vista 64, Intel dual core e8400, GForce 9800 GTX, 4 gigs of ram. The network code needs a big hug, the game is basically unplayable for me. I also get spontaneous freezes lasting for 5-20 secodns in the custom game browser. It can take as long as 30 minutes to find a game that you can actually play, sometimes longer. This is because you have to start up the browser, wait for it to painfully slow update and then proceed to try to enter somewhere around 10 games before you can find one that will 1) allow you to -try- to connect, 2) allow you to actually connect.

 

Hoping for a quick fix for this, would very much like to play the game I've paid for :)
