August 16 Progress Update

Still nothing on the payment options. It's rather silly when you actually want to pay, but can't.

0.9.12 sounds awesome, and I'm looking forward to seeing what 0.9.11k has in store for us. :D

"

Adding PvP, including arenas with simple matchmaking, and dueling. Teams of up to 6 on either side are supported.

Do i smell e-sports/ ELO rankings/ spectating etc?
That could use a preset/fixed leagues with no PVE, stash equipped with preset items and all characters same level (to have equal starting points, progression would be purely rating/player skill wise).. that could simplify balancing it by quite a bit.

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.

Evasion roll .. what is this magix? Care to elaborate?

On the other hand, making arrows common projectiles would mean that faster projectiles support and faster projectile speed item mod will become the defacto new accuracy.

Will this mean we can expect new ability skill gems to manipulate the flight speed/direction of projectiles? Both defensive and offensive varieties pretty please :)

I'm extremely pleased with how the last few months have gone

Me too! ;)

Right above your characters, on the front page (scroll most of the way down, past the news bulletins). =^[.]^=

Poor Chris. He has not got payed in 6 years and if postings time stamps are to be believed he is at GGG 24-7-365. In the USA we have a work release program for prisoners. LoL. But it sounds more like Voluntary confinement. If I had not seen the Pictures of the Office of GGG posted by the real GGG stocker I would swear GGG is in Chris's mom's basement were he still lives. Lol
Many there at GGG have not been payed also; with that much heart and soul put in to a game I hope all the stars Aline for them.

Thanks for the Patch sir may I have another?

Please add Ranked stemmed for PVP arena am a big PVP guy myself and would be extremely happy ifthere was something like that.

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), so we're still gathering data that will let us fix it. This is a priority, but as with all things that require data collection and research, is taking some time to solve.

What about just getting an MacBook Pro (preferably one with 512 MB Graphics RAM) and try the Wine-Wrapper from the forums. If you do not set it to "-gc 1" the problems arise pretty quick and can be probably nicely debugged as Wine has some good logging and dumping possibilities.

thumbs up in every point!

greetings from Germany!

What he means is: We currently can Evade, however the new system will also allow us to manually dodge.

As always,Chris and team you have met and beat all expectation of a dev team.

I can't express how happy I am with your game and all the hard work you all are doing.
I look forward to testing the upcoming changes.

I have a quick question/request. Is it possible to add a link in the supporter area to add more points to the account via real money exchange for in game points. I would like to keep providing real cash in exchange for in game points for a later time of when more items get introduced.

I know you don't have a subscription cost introduced with this game and i like that. although i want to donate for points. :)
