I have never played any of the BG games in MP (or any other Infinity Engine game) but I would be interested in playing - I always was. Don't know what type of game you are going for (RP or whatnot) but let it be known, the only DnD experience I have, is with video games - I have never played PnP.
I tend to prefer melee classes and my favorite class is Dwarf cleric.
i have been playing baldurs gate since its release and would love to join your group, do u have a prefered class u need me to be, or do i just pick it? please contact me on facebook gunnertyr
The more we are the more exp we will need to get lvl but for later battle it will be easier and we'll have more tank/dps/heal abilities than with only 3-4 player that will be like.. 1-2 lvl ahead.
@Elendar When it's going to be stable for 6 players without hamachi i'm all about playing.
Don't know for sure.. Aosaw said it should be stable in a couple of weeks... but that might be wishful thinking.
As far as I could deduct from reading about multiplayer, Aosaw doesn't work for Beamdog so you can't count on that. I could be wrong but I seem to remember reading threads where he specifically said he wasn't a part of the team, so don't think you can count on his words alone.
Yeah, tried playing with 3 people last Friday, but unfortunately kept freezing and had to restart game multiple times. Was a bit frustrating.. Correct the issues so gaming can commence!
Yeah, we have been 3 people playing multiplayer in LAN.
We have experienced alot of issues (game-crash, usually 2 'joined' players) when zoning, transfering items and using NPC vendors.
We have managed to overcome this duo to very fast load times (good PC equipment), but I would imagine a much larger impact online (more delay between duo to communication etc.).
I would vote to do a long first play of around 2-3 hours at least, and only if it fits with everyone else time in their respective time zone. Go ahead and post what's your free time during the week/weekend and lets find something that can fit everyone for a game once/week.
ps:I won't post my free time yet as i'm in/out of home at almost everyhour of the day.. (job-hunting)
We'll wait for others to post their GMT once that is done we'll find out which day suits everyone WE might play late at night while lordkim will join us the next morning in the early day :P

@lukebagdarrel @bul You two never responded to this thread so I'm removing you from the group..
So we have 2 available slots for anyone who is still interesting in joining.
@InvasorDePastos Edited the first post to add you.. What class will you play? (look at OP to see what is already in the group)
If not a whole group of 6, then less can do it for me. :O)
Blackguard or Ranger....
now that we have six players, we should probably decide when to play... I'm thinking Saturday evenings?
I'm in East Canada, GMT - 5:00
