Big update today, the first step towards the overhaul of matchmaking and parties. The new matchmaking system is not live yet, but we are rolling out the beta of the new party server which should alleviate most of the issues with partying up.quote:User Interface

Well, 3 times I tried to play and 3 times in a row the game APPCRASH'd during the "Finding best match..." of matchmaking. Is this a problem or am I specifically hosed? I cannot play the game at the moment.

I'll keep at it and see if there are any more occurences. I will note that the one game I joined into had a 0 / 0 score on the first round and a 5 / 30 score on the second round. I joined for the last 2 minutes. Never seen that happen before. The Crusher fucked around with this message at 02:05 on Aug 5, 2014 |

The party system seems to sort of work, but it isn't smooth... but anything is better than the old way of inviting and praying. However, shitlords using aim-bots and the occasional speed hack seem rather common and its really draining the fun out of playing random matches.

This is really retarded how much EVERY game is bugged now that one side is permanently stuck with 3 players and never being able to get a 4th. This is the sort of poo poo that once the free weekend comes will throw people completely off the game. That and the still not fully functioning party system.

Good luck with the free weekend! I dunno if it's in the works but I'd suggest some sort of UI dongle to show Party Server Connection Status and a button to refresh it/reconnect. Though hopefully it's so seamless in the future that it isn't required.

Free weekend is up, good time to start out with a bunch of other new people. Parties are still broken. No way to leave a broken party available, how do you leave a party without quitting. Even if you get into a group, groups are dumped in the engine. Gotta quit between failed invites because the matchmaking is broken. Grognan fucked around with this message at 06:35 on Aug 8, 2014 |

I've played this game a lot the last couple of days and I love it so much and pretty much everyone I know likes it. That's pretty rare. Everything about it is great, looks great, feels great to play, easy to learn/hard to master, tons of room for strategy even in the TDM gamemode, etc etc... I think it's going to be pretty big. It's great to watch too which is a pretty big deal in the age of esports/streaming. THE PWNER fucked around with this message at 10:54 on Aug 8, 2014 |

Hi, Nosgoth alpha tester here. I should probably have more but I don't remember where they are. FEGOFA-705-BAZOCU-231 BEJOLA-225-JAVOVO-215 CEPOME-907-COMOCO-025 These are from like June, I think they still might be good, I didn't see a date. PS I have never seen a community bitch and moan about stupid poo poo as much as the Nosgoth community. "My team lost because we went up against a party of 4! FIX IT PYSNOIX!!1" When I first started out and there was like, one or two games going at any time during prime time and you took what you could get. If that meant fighting the top players at the time, it's what you did, and it made you better for it. These new party system changes are a reflection on that and it kind of irks me. I've never seen people act this way in a game before. I'm also getting pretty sick of people saying the game is pay to win when you can unlock abilities after a couple games. Never mind that most of the base poo poo is perfectly fine. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I hate everyone everywhere. edit: vvvvvvvvv I haven't spent a dime on this game. I hope you're being facetious vvvvvvvvvv Dazh fucked around with this message at 20:32 on Aug 8, 2014 |

So I got surprised with the Warband pack by a friend and already gave out the invites, but I have a question. How do I actually reserve a warband name? I mean that's what Warband Name Reservation means, right? Set it now, ensure it can't be taken?

Pay-to-Win only really has meaning if what you buy with your real money is A) A significant upgrade compared to ingame currency items and B) unobtainable by non-paying players. MWO's Clan Mechs are a prime example, being both exclusively premium and a straight upgrade in all aspects compared to "free" mechs. Nosgoth ain't pay-to-win, guy. hth

It surprises me what people think "Pay to win" means. Did you pay real money for it and does it give you a noticeable (or any) edge over others? Thats pay to win. But ugh,  I ain't going to convert nobody.

It's pay 2 win If unlocks don't play a large part in the game, what real reason is there for there to be separate brackets between levels 1-10 and the rest of the game? Even the OP says quote:only available between 1-10, its designed for new players to not get crushed by well geared veterans. The only things you should be able to buy are cosmetic items ala dota 2 or path of exile, poo poo that doesn't affect gameplay

Because people who have played enough to reach level 10 are more experienced at playing the game, know the maps and playstyles, and will stomp newbies. Like any multiplayer game. Unlocks are sidegrades and playstyle options. I play with default loadout for many classes as it suits my playstyle.

They're all just simple trade-offs in the fashion of "more damage for lower RoF/utility" or vice versa. That's generally fairly straightforward to balance, and as of now I haven't seen anything that would be strictly superior to the default versions.

It's a good ability too, no doubt, but the thing I love with shadow bomb is even if it doesn't land on all the guys (or hell, if it hits no one at all), the smoke itself blocks sight, so you can use it to create a "can't see poo poo" barrier between two people that if they try to cross, fucks their vision up something fierce for a while.

I struggle to imagine a scenario where the lack of an ability is what loses you the match. Edit: Like, FOR EXAMPLE, Shadow Bomb and Choking Haze are useful in pretty much the same situation (enemy team is grouped close and defending a small area), but each is useful in a different way. Haze scatters while Shadow Bomb provides cover/blinds, and it really depends on how you or your team prefers to engage rather than one simply being better than the other.
