Absolutely love this game, the community is just so appallingly bad.

Anybody been able to login for the past 2 days?

Can't get onto the forums or login to the game.

Trying to work out if its me or on S2's end as they have had DDoS problems lately.

Yesterday it was down, thankfully not ddosd.

I'm pretty meh at this game, around 1600 psr (can't do MM due to leavers atm

), if anyone wants to play feel free to add me.

Username - Purdy , or Purdy8 on steam if i ain't on there much

Same, i had the same issue, site worked, forum didn't.

try this, http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/

It is working for me but sometimes it can only be certain people with HoNs crap site.

Tried flushing DNS. no luck. argh haha

So what happened to the idea of running an OcUK clan? Did that take off? I play HoN quite a lot with some of my buddies, but it would be cool to be able to play in a clan - get some matches going, I guess.

Not heard anything about it but I'd be up for it. Not playing much HoN atm but I'll probably start playing more when DotA2 nears release

Utnac · 8 Jul 2011 at 16:15

I'd 100% be interested, I just quit this game because the couple of people I was playing it with got bored of it, and I just get sick of the complete and utter retards random matchmaking puts you with.

CliffyG · 8 Jul 2011 at 16:24

I play most nights still, just never seemed to get enough steam up between members to kick something off.

jahujames · 9 Jul 2011 at 08:05

Actually fair point about the DOTA2 thing. I'm thinking I'll probably stop playing HoN soon anyway, the community is really, REALLY started to grate on me. It's impossible to find a game where people are actually nice to others :\

I'm really hoping DOTA2 isn't plagued with that sort of issue, it'll just kill the enjoyment for me

Astaeri · 9 Jul 2011 at 09:59

I stopped playing this as I couldn't find people to play with, community was always trash and even in beta it was terrible.

I'm mainly waiting for Dota 2 aswell.

CossackNoodle · 9 Jul 2011 at 10:54

Ive played nearly daily since beta with a group of friends a lot of them are looking towards dota 2 now but I think dota 2 will not be what hon is to dota and be more like LoL i hope it isnt but I think thats the direction it will go

You're probably right.

HoN at next NASL, could be big.

From what I've heard DotA2 will be a DotA clone, same mechanics and everything. probably with an 'easy mode' that will have similarities to LoL and HoN Casual Mode.

The HoN community is awful, even though I have flamed people in the past. I'd imagine DotA 2 will have a similar community

All Mobas do, and will continue to have awful communities, you are so heavily reliant on your team mates, it isn't like counter strike or something where you can clutch/carry based on your skill alone, if the other team kills your team mates they get put at a huge advantage and will always lead to people whining.

Mind you i try to avoid playing pub as much as possible these days.
