1 million dollars is a lot of money. Congrats! However... 18 people...
assuming they're all making a pittance, you're going to need to be making like 500,000 a month. I really hope this succeeds but I am sure there'll be challenges ahead. Best of luck, GGG! Believe me when I say that I am hoping you guys succeed in a huge way!


While I appreciate your sentiment, we do get by on less than $500k per month :)

Until this month, I had never been paid by the company. Now I can eat.

And buy a pair of pants!

...the 0.9.12 patch... focuses on many areas, including:
Arrows are now real projectiles rather than faked long-range melee attacks. This means they can be dodged by running out of the way, as well as by the evasion roll.


Is it possible that this also solves the bug with the crash causing interference with lightning warp? I hope so.

as i told in one of my posts,i m extremely curious to know ....how much/many people participate in third open beta stress weekend?.after two weeks,no single info,exept this.

We've just switched the servers back over to the Closed Beta, after a very successful stress test weekend. We found out a lot of information that will greatly help us scale up for Open Beta, and had a great time chatting to fans! If you played the weekend and would like to gain permanent Closed Beta access, please visit this page.

any more info please.


55,000 people played that weekend. What other numbers would you like?

Yes, that's why I wasn't paid. Because I'll get a share of the profits later on. We founders have worked for free for six years.

Thats good news to hear Chris, you have my support !
So the next patch is supposed to come in several weeks, meaning that Open Beta isn't really coming mid august, it's probably not even coming mid-september, is that right?
We can't wait to see Act 3 either ;)

Keep up the good work. regards
Good to hear GGG is pushing through to a better future.

We're aware of several client stability issues that can manifest in the form of either graphical glitches or a crash. We have never seen this happen in our office (despite it happening occasionally within the Beta community)


However this made me laugh so hard, I crash like every 5-30 minutes :)
This is one of the best gaming companies ever! you are down to earth, providing updates and being honest! I give you my thanks!
