Seriously why is it that 50% of the posts in the "DDoS again" are "Derppp HoN is dieing Dota 2 4 lyf, screw you s2"...
Seriously do you think S2 wants HoN to be down or DDoS'd? Even if they didn't care about customers (not saying they dont care about customers) they still want money and being down doesn't get them any.
Some people are just so ignorant, seriously >.>
If you think its because they just dont put any money into DDoS defence, then you are wrong, look up the mechanics of DDoS
People like the game. When something bad is happening, that's their way of telling that they please want to be informed. It's just wrapped in some bad words. They'll be satisfied too if everythings okay again and continue playing for the lack of a better option.
@FlyntFire, doesnt matter if hon is down, because we already paid for the account, either way up or running or server down, they already made money bkos we paid for the accounts
you pay for a game that has downtime for up to 3 weeks, but its okay cause i hear S2 is very 'professional'
Well, if I was playing HoN. I'd very unlikely even be looking at the forums <3.
OP is the kind of person who if s2 asked him to eat **** he'd do it and then smile and say "hmm yummy"
Until anyone can show us a part of the terms and rules etc that states that HoN is not to be DDOS'd during it's lifespan threads like this will be to absolutely no worth at all, and just removed, hopefully hidden in a dark corner along with other retarded posts about an attack.
A more constructive way to help is to download a good antivirus and search your computer to find out if you are a part of a botnet that possibly attacks the HoN servers.
even if 5% of the community are ignorant haters and trolls, it's still enough to completely flood the forums, you pay 30 $ for this much game play time, everyone have problems, S2's not a big company, normal people understand this, kids/idiots won't
Traha, your complaints aren't about S2, yet you call them incompetent. How do you make a system that knows if an account is boosted, a smurf, a griefer, player is high/drunk (which is often something claimed just to be cool or as an excuse for having a bad game)?
It's just not possible. Most people point to games with good MM that don't require TEN players to be of equal skill. Even then not all avenues are covered. Good players can have bad games, or fail at a character they are not experienced with.
You also comment on the 5% leave limit... yet if you played DotA was plagued by leavers. A leave limit is the lesser of two evils (SIGNIFICANTLY LESSER evil).
That said, HoN is being strangled by these DDoS attacks. Players will leave, regardless of whether it is S2's fault or not, they are going to suffer for it because their players will become frustrated and find other games to play.
just feed the trolls and look how they still play hon till 2013, thats the way i do it
dota 2 wont be released until 2013...l dota2 is like duke nukem forever.. get some balls of steel!
They are incompetent. True, no one can detect if a player is drunk etc. but they can balance teams according to number of games/actual hours played, place players into tiers or allow only players with more than 300...500 games to join Match Making. If u remember the first version of Match Making asked players if they were beginners, intermediate or experienced but i guess it wasn't effective as any kid after 10 games thinks he knows it all. Anyway no one can convince me that a balance based on MMR and group size is even close to fair, as a new player needs at least 500 games to play decent.

Probably the dumbest post in all the troll threads ive glanced at.
So tell me, what was the point of you coming to this thread if not to contribute, you have no argument, no opinion, just an insult.
Generally people that insult are hurt themselves and have nothing more to say than to lash out in anger. Come back when you have something interesting to post.
"General Discussion" is just that, I put out an opinion, and its idiots like you that flood these threads. if S2 and HoN is so crap to you, why do you browse their forums?
Heck of an argument you've got there

Its just epic, i guess i missed the "3 weeks downtime" all people are talking about these days. If you had a 3 Week downtime , maybe try to change your internet-provider.
Feel you OP.
