oh its a really good addictive game - just an annoying way of actually trying to get playing it. Maybe the patch will sort it - fingers crossed.

Are there other games that do 32 player MP based on user hosting?
 
I couldn't have less idea what is going on in this game just seems everyone jsut runs to the middle and randomly presses attack until they are dead. Tactics/skill seem to take second place to anything. I've only seen the princess be rescued once, since it's virtually impossible to get through the middle deadlock.

Would the game not be better with smaller teams?

I don't even know who is hosting the 32 player games tbh!! I have 1.4mb upload and I can only do 22 players. I can't think that many people in the UK have an upload connection capable of hosting 32 player servers (assuming it is about 2mb upload needed).

Anyway more promises on the Titan Studios blog:

We’ve received a flood of emails in the last 36 hours. We’re humbled by the incredible outpouring of appreciation and support from the community, and by the number of fans who have invested staggering amounts of time and effort in writing thoughtfully about their experiences and offering suggestions.

Ninety-five out of a hundred emails are from gamers loving the game, even though some of them are experiencing varying degrees of networking problems and other bugs.

What is this AoE they are referring to?

Also, if we see any of the changes I have highlighted in Yellow within 2 months of this post. I will change my name to "fatprincess2000".

Last time I buy a game based on other users here banging on about how great the Beta is/was (especially as I don't even see those 2 people playing the full game!!). Gonna wait a week or so next time, like all the smart people on my friends list who message me before buying this game :)

AoE = Area of Effect. That would be the big ring attacks with the priest and mage. :)
 
Please dont quote it guys.

What is it with this Kinder crap? Some guy on here has some signature asking for votes as well.

The AoE they are referring to will be the ice mage.

Its way to easy to play as the ice mage and go to the top of the leader board by spamming the ice aoe.

Ah yes, Dinakin does this to me a lot and skippi90 is always banging on about it on his headset. The only penalty for having your Ice attack fully charged seems to be you walk a bit slower, but anyone comes even close to you they get frozen if you release the charge.

hehe nah the more the merrier - its mad fun. It seems chaotic but its tactical. I'm undecided on what is my favourite class. Ice mage does literally haemorrage points non-stop. But like going Dark priest and killing warriors wi my pointy stick ;)

Best bet is to get workers to collect resources to upgrade stuff asap and then upgrade the catapult thing - use that with a group of others - kidnap princess and then use their own catapult (if its ready :D) to get back hehehe.
 
More fun if you made the bet for something a little closer. No one is going to remember it in 2 months.. how about making it for 2 days? :D
 
The ice attack is handy, look at when we had the princess and you lot came the other way with ours, was 2 a piece, so i froze ur group allowing us to deposit the princess and win the match.

Bah, u froze the other people in the team. I came back for them, not fully understanding how Ice attack works, else I would have beaten your team back with the Princess (Although at that point you prob had 2 ppl on our Princess and I had 1 on ours so i would have run slower, I guess).

Those changes do sound great, but as you say they need to get them in quickly and working straight off.

I like it, I can see and hope it will get better - it is random without teamwork and comms (this sort of game would pickup a lot easier on LIVE in my experience) but I think you just need to find the right 'game friends' and take it from there.

Ill be playing most nights from 10 till early morning so good to see anyone from here on there too.
 
Right I downloaded it last night and had a few games in sp mode. Should be on tonight if some folk fancy a game, probably from 7.30 onwards. Should be a bit more active on psn now since I have learned to never use the wifi on my router with the psn.

Add me to your list if you fancy a few games...
