Sorry to be bothering with this problem of mine again, but do most people here play on bnet? I'm just trying to find out what platform people play on, since garena doesn't have the LAN option anymore. Too bad i cant even buy the game to get bnet, would love to play the new version when it comes out with other people, but unfortunately that won't be happening unless there's another platform where a decent number of people play Gaia's

Well I don't think many people play at all to be honest at the moment. A lot of players like myself are just in limbo waiting for the new version to be released. Having said that when a new version comes out you can bet your ass off that there will be people in Clan ORPG @USWest and the clan still has servers hosting on bnet so there's still a chance you can get lucky and find some people to play with there.

wc3

wc3 didn't die just got ruined by the bot wars in 2008 now we got hundreds of bot taking up space that many people never uses. I guess its all about profit.
the only good thing about hosting bots is they can link severs but back in the old days there were enough people to randomly fill up a room in mins.
and private servers that might out there might have other people on it. and most of the old maps I got don't even work on this wc3 no more cause of some patch.

i play gaias tho i work most of the day and don't got time to wait for a group

Personally I think as long as there are map makers out there like Zwiebel willing to put in the hard work to create something as amazing as Gaias on wc3 there always be a community willing to play it and in that sense wc3 will never die.

I agree that there's currently not much action going on on either platform regarding Gaias; and I have to admit that this might not change over the next weeks; I'm just very busy doing other stuff so that I can't find the time to code much.

I will release a new version with bugfixes and the new armor attachment system in some weeks for betatesting, however, given the nature of this update (fixing/cosmetics), I highly doubt there will be a new "players rush" like we had when 1.2A came out.


If that helps: I have a rather large text file containing all stuff I want to do for 1.2B, including quests, spells, boss designs and map layout fully fledged out. Everything is planned in detail; it just has to be done.

I don't know if Gaias will be a custom map for Dota 2 in the near future. I am saying people like Malygos10 could try entconnect and again be able to play with the population of garena + bnet + eurobattlenet + w3arena, etc. that enjoy Gaias. I'm also wondering why they have to remove Garena LAN for a few countries.

@Malygos10 You can still try ENT's entconnect... it let's you host and be seen by Garena players as well as Bnet and some pvpgn such as Eurobattlenet. You can join Gaias ent hosted game as well, mostly Europe ent bot hosts.

What time are you going to play online?

@Malygos10 the sendspace file wasn't reuploaded for some reason. There's also the embedded quicktime file below the link as the alternate video. For youtube videos, I found this one (it's for Bnet users though): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qT2q1O1aVCU

@Nir try ENTconnect together me, and with Malygos10 if it's ok with you both... others are very welcome to join as well.

Well what time do you usually play at? I can play from 6 pm eastern time. Maybe we can play on game ranger. We can even try garena and get you a brand new character if game ranger doesnt work

U should change nickname and create new character cuz 50% of gaias players play on garena. Moreover Gaias bots on garena and bnet are linked so u'll be able to play with everyone.

yeah they are linked, and if u want to go bnet, you should at least install garena+.

garena plus is a messenger and you can add friends and join gaia groups/clans. which most players are usually on nowadays.

More like a moth because you come back and usually just mess things up and people want to swat at you, in good humor
