Nat traversal problems I would guess. I had to change my ISP to get a game connected in the beta.... hate to say it. And the game is so good too altho I was hoping for more than 8 maps to play on,.....

Success rate : Before the pantheon was added = almost always, after the pantheon was added = Never Router: D-Link DIR-625 newest firmware Modem: Currently and actiontech GT701 soon to be switching to something else as you know ive tried 2 other modems. ISP: QWEST but soon to be something else
Thanks again for the game... I remember playing a bit over a month ago. I love the game but I hate playing with AI only:(
[netcode] i have updated my router firmware. I have forwarded ports. I have changed the nat port settings in impulsereactor options.exe. I have bipassed my router and connected to my modem. I have removed all firewalls including windows firewall. I have even go as far as opening my internet conection completely to everything and I cannot connect to a single game. When I host people only see there names but not my name, and when I join a game i dont see any names listed under player name.
well in running version 0.92.025 and now im having Major trouble with connections. Ive tried everything from opening ports on my end resetting every piece of hardware I have connected to the internet and also a majority of hosting and trying to join i can think of. I cannot connect to anything at all. What is totally odd tho is the very first time I ran this version I was able to join a panthion game right off but ever since its completely not working for me. I have even deleted the settings
[quote who="Trigeminal" reply="10" id="1989325"]I have suggested this multiple times. It seems stardock and gpg do not see this as a priority at the current time for this game. I think it should be a priority because to me this has such a team and action feel like tf2. From my discussions and posts, I think the development time or liscencing costs make this idea prohibitive. I use steam to chat in the background while playing this game, but wish it was implemented in ga
100% Agree Trigeminal, Rook role would be the best achievement EVER...
hit P to ping should always ping for your team... as far as I can tell it only pings my location on my map.
i like having the ability to destroy towers fast when im needing the game to be short.
So beta today? dec-17-08 yes/no? anyone? oh and HI TRIGEMINAL

I think drm is good for gaming in general, however malicious DRM such as securerom is really bad. Honestly i feel stardock sort of has drm. its just done in a different manner. The concept of logging into Impulse to obtain updates and such kinda acts like drm. you can even copy there games and play them but not online. Now what EA does with its install limits and "phone home to daddy" kind of activations is retarted and has basically punished the people buying the game legally and done absolu
i guess it could be intentional. i dunno. might look bad with the yellow :D I know I have seen yellow there in atleast one logo. maybe that was the error.
I haven't seen the poster big enough to even look at the art along the bottom. LOL interesting observation tho. Ive seen the yellow on all the other L's in that logo so who knows. Minor details but its still a product in Super early. probably not even in Alpha yet. So I really don't care as I know Stardock is known for there attention to detail.
Im pretty new to Impulse however When I heard of a master of Magic like game from stardock I said "Hooba Jooba well Ill be damned..." Ok, so not really, but I was 100% for a pre-order. and after hearing about my friends time with the demigod beta I want to be a part of the next stardock game. ^^ PS.. even with as little information that is known about the game i was still in for a preorder ;) this game is important to me.
This is not a big deal but I figured I'de throw it out here if someone wants to fix it. On the download portion of the Elemental website there is a poster for download. I just figured I would say the logo is missing the Yellow on the last "L". Not a big deal, but since its the logo i figured I would mention it.
