Let's avoid any misunderstanding so here's some correct pics:

I think this situation is pretty bad:

1. Now even more people know that you can cheat this way (I didn't). Now that it is publicly available, it's safe to assume that everyone will abuse it (or try to).

2. This just takes away a feature without even fixing the bug/exploit. If this can't be fixed, there MUST be a workaround, going as far as kicking out dead players if it comes to it.

To be clear, I am not saying that making this exploit known was a mistake, but a real solution must be found, not something that will take away a feature that many enjoyed while doing nothing to prevent anyone that wants to cheat from doing it.

Here's your best friend

It won't tell you directly if the game is ranked or not, but you can at least check if the host has put some option that will unrank it... you can always just ask while in lobby.

If you are desperate enough, you could just use an AutoHotkey script to bind the arrow keys to WASD.

Well, on that note...

On the topic of transports, I believe this thread on the old forums would be an interesting read for anyone that missed it.

Good to know that it's an option in the client but there should a link somewhere on the site as well, it's still linking to the old version with no mention of this new version anywhere (apart from a spooky mode option).

I'll admit that you'll learn of it if you eventually go to the bottom of the page and follow the link to github, but I definitely would have never noticed that link or clicked on it normally...

This would be pretty impressive if you were 6-8 years old!

It still looks like an audio issue to me, one of your last lines in the crashlog says "warning: SND: Error playing cue 1 on bank 5 [music]". You'll notice it's the same as the ones you were getting in the previous crashlog.

Are you -REALLY- sure you have configured your audio as stereo under windows and not as
5.1/7.1/surround/whatever?

Try looking up your error on google, you'll get some more insights and tips.

It might be a device incompatibility, or it might be because you are plugging it through USB instead of the audio jack, or it might be the device-specific software giving problems (try closing it or double check the settings there).

One of the discussions that you will find mentions deleting the music files from the game as a "fix", you might want to try that (make sure to make a backup just in case, so you won't have to redownload/reinstall).

mobile smd!

@meatyowllegs Try this

Of course, if you get more into this, you'll find people that can easily survive a barrage of 6-8 arties or multiple Mavors, so going by that logic I guess they are actually too weak?

The advice to play different maps is definitely valid, give the matchmaker a go as well maybe.

@thecore you need to install and enable common mod tools.

Please consider using edits instead of posting multiple times.

The mod does the same thing as the command in game—as Jip mentioned, you need to enable it.

I had absolutely no clue there was even a newer version of it.

Why is the site still linking to this old version?

@wikingest ...I really wonder when this got broken. Either well, good job noticing this.

You should definitely make a more detailed thread on this issue so someone can have a look at this.

if you mean this thing about jesters having 0 dps it has already been reported.

What else is off?

Also, posting screenshots is pretty easy, you can just paste whatever picture you have in the clipboard.

@pryanichek said in I cri everytim:

Ladder for beginners is too complicated at all, you still do not know the features of all units, each action takes 3 times longer, and your opponent will most likely already have hundreds of games and will easily kill you

I cri everytim a newcomer believes he can't play ladder because he will only face mega pros that will stomp them. You might get unlucky the first few games as the system doesn't know where you to place you, but after a few losses, you will definitely only play against people as good(bad?) as you.

(Of course, the real issue is that there might not be enough players of your rank in the queue)

Also, I do not know your timezone, but I see a good number of all welcome lobbies when I play, you should only be kicked if you join rank-restricted games (or if your CPU is bad).

Moving the unit or upgrading/cancelling an upgrade should fix the issue (you don't really want to ctrl+k your acu or a mex, most of the time).
