I am disappointed to come back to give the game a go since it's been a while since I played and now the proxies don't even work properly! They had just about solved the connectivity problems but now they themselves are a major problem source - one that is basically being ignored, despite the fact that it basically prevents many people from playing.

It's likely that the ping is just down to the way mobile broadband works, independent of the actual throughput speed. I would imagine though that Sky will let you upgrade the current package that you have to include faster broadband, it shouldn't be complicated at all.

From rank 3 heal removes negative effects, as a consequence I am pretty sure MOTB will do nothing to Sedna if she heals herself with rank 3 or above heal. The mark is removed by the heal without doing damage. I certainly haven't noticed MOTB doing damage once I have rank 3 heal, although potentially it could be but the red damage no. is not shown. It also removes the slow from mines.

Whilst it is clear that you guys are working hard on the problems and that is appreciated by the community it has essentially been let-down after let-down with almost no progress made since release. Unfortunately in business and most of real life you do not get credit for 'trying hard' - you get credit for delivering results. Each week promises are made that things will improve or proxies will be functional and each week these improvements fail to materialise. Since release this game

I suspect your ping would be pretty awful using wireless 3G broadband for gaming here in the UK, I seem to remember a PCGamer article where they gave it a go a while back and basically it was not good enough for gaming. You'd be better off paying for a better communal line (which would be cheaper), though tbh the bandwidth usage of DG should probably be quite low so I'm not sure why having a shared connection would be a problem anyway (unless the others are constantly dling/uploading on bitto

Firstly, let me say I love the game (when it works) and the very regular contact you have made with us gamers (0although that is pretty well a necessity otherwise I guess most people would have returned the game by now). The 50% discount off Demigod you are planning to offer doesn't really suggest a thankyou or an apology at all. How about 50% off a game we haven't already purchased instead off 50% off of Demigod? 50% off Demigod just comes accross as a cheap marketing ploy for you to make u

The more people on GR the better! I can't play through impulse and if we get more people on GR then the wait can come down further. Have had some great games so far but can be a pain if there is not quite the right number of legit people about but still better than impulse! It's kind of sad that I'm considering downloading the pirated version, even though I have the legit one, so I can play more often, though tbh the thought of playing with the immature warez crowd isn't too appealing. So far

I think I will definitely have an experiment against the AI, just test a few things out. Does anyone know if the healing wind aura also affects Sedna herself? I have been assuming it does but the tooltip doesn't make it that clear.

Innoc, that's an interesting point, I had assumed you did not get the xp either if you hadn't done 25% damage. If you get the xp from simply being nearby it may just be in the last couple of games I have not been getting in the creep action enough! No problems Silph, I have read a few similar posts so I can see where the reaction is from! I think I'll give using some damaging minions a go as a way of spreading the damage about for cash gains. Unfortunately since multiplayer is not wor

Thanks for your post Sil :) I'm 100% sure that I would not say the issue is that I am forsaking damage and playing as a stand back healer. I'm not typically a 'healer' player in terms of what I like to play but went with Sedna as I thought she could provide an aggressive DG who has good surviveability and team value. I focus on trying to get in and harass with teamates and make hit and run finishes on people and high pounce is part of that. Getting yetis would probably force me to sacrifice s

I have been playing Sedna as a support char with some friends, typically a selection of a Rook, Oak and Regulus. Build wise I am going for Pounce and Heal with Silence and Healing wind II for large heals from priest minions/creeps. I only buy priest mi. Typically I open by getting heal and then buying monks to give me staying power at the start. I am wondering whether it might be worth going for a helm and chest piece instead (scaled helm + banded armor). However I have

This is almost as bad as your other thread, you dismiss any single piece of advice you are given and act as if the whole world is against you - it's not. You complain about the community because you don't like the advice they offer, why did you ask for it then? Other people manage to get away (bear in mind sometimes you just won't get away if an UB is determined to kill you!) and have given you advice about it, but you dismiss it without taking some time to think it over. The suggesti

I really appreciate the regular status updates and they are essentially the only reason I haven't asked for a refund on the game. I am really disappointed by today's update though. I can't believe you have lowered the priority of getting the proxies sorted and instead you are focussing on people that can already connect! Surely you should focus on getting everyone able to connect first!

I have never been able to connect to one of my friends with the game and only once or twice to another out of maybe 100 tries. Most times it simply would not work at all and give the old one-size-fits-all error message, disconnected from the nat facilitator etc. Now the error message we get is that I have been licked from the game I'm attempting to join. I assume that is just a generic response because I know my friends haven't actually kicked me at all.
