Seriously, the PuG (pick up group) mentality is worse than the random games in d2, unless you get very picky about who you invite.
Quote:So, I come here in search of anyone who has this game and, more importantly, still plays. I know some of you bit the bullet when the game came out and played it for at least awhile, but I also remember a LOT of DS comments. Frankly, I think this is far worse than DS could ever hope to achieve. :P But in the vain hope that SOMEONE here still plays, I would love some company for the early levels. And if it comes down to me needing to start a new character to join you, so be it. Anything to alleviate the horrendous migraines this game is giving me.Unless you decided to leave the guild for some reason (I do remember inviting you and seeing your name appear on the roster), you've already got access to quite a few players who are more than willing to help out on any mission. You just need to make use of the guild channel. Usually the only time you might not see at least 4 of us on at once is during the 3pm - 9pm EST time block. I've completed the game with 3 different characters, so, basically, when I'm signed on it's to help out people in the guild.
Quote:And even if none of you still play, any advice would be appreciated as well. Just keep in mind I don't know where ANYTHING is, so keep references to Ascalon City and the like. :P Seriously though, this game is pushing me to my last vesiges of patience. I'm gonna need a Valium before long if I don't get someone other than these stupid, STUPID Henchmen to play with, or at least someone to tell me "Don't worry, it gets better before long", cause this is just... well, like pulling teeth without any novacaine. :PAgain, I refer you to the guild channel. Even when we're unavailable to help for missions (which would only be because we're in the middle of a mission/quest) we can still offer advice.

I completely agree with you that the AI is horrendous, the only way I was able to beat some of the missions was to put them off until I could get at least 1 other guildmate to help me complete them.
