Default Happy to see Dom 3 is alive and well

Hi all

I just purchased Dom 3 after watching a game here and there, the AAR's from the "Something Awful" forums helped. While waiting for the store to process my details I actually thought to check the Multiplayer page on the forums here and am happy to see that after such a time there is still regular activity and games being organised on a regular basis.

So I have not got in too late

I think to start off I'll play some Allied AI's vs humans games and then progress to an all Human game where the fun is at.

Keep smiling

Yes there are 4 active forums, 4 active servers, 3 IRC channels, and a large number of games being hosted on home machines. Plenty to choose from.

Plus a new patch was recently released! I'm very impressed by these developers and pray they will eventually work towards creating Dominions_4.

Make sure to give the AI opponents a growth scale otherwise you'll recognize they are weaker with time. For a more interesting challenge give a computer opponent some SC's during the start of the game.

Welcome to the forums. And feel free to come back to IRC. It's possible we can make Jurri be at least moderately polite.

Ha! Jurri was fine, I only had 5 mins before work and had no known experience of IRC so decided to check it out.

Cheers for the welcome people

Welcome welcome!

It's far from dead! With modding and regular MP dominions can survive for as long as, say, Jagged Alliance 2, which still has a very active community.

With the 1.13 single click installer, I hope, since with that the game is at least twice as good.
