New Player Unable To Play Because No Match History

game hosts keep kicking me before I ever have a chance to play

September 30, 2014 7:02:29 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

Hi, I just started playing your game.

But it takes hours to get a match and when I finally do get one I am kicked from the room for being a "noob" because I have no games played on my account.

What can a new player do to play with others when he doesn't have a record of 1,000+ matches?

It gets very frustrating to keep getting kicked from rooms over and over. I usually end up playing another game on my computer instead.

Also I prefer big matches. The only match I played so far was a 1v1 and was extremely boring. I never saw the enemy for 3 hours and eventually he just left the match. Worst gaming experience of my life. So I am hoping to eventually play a big match with many players and teammates before I give up completely and regret wasting my money on this game.

 

Sincerely,

New player

Try hosting yourself on a tiny map until you get a few games. Once you get a few games you're less likely to be kicked, plus you'll likely get better experience from small maps where you have to fight the enemy early.

Not necessarily, though you could do that. I just meant a match on a tiny map should not last 3 hours and you'll certainly need to fight your opponent.

? Is this another alt that Seleuceia created so he isn't embarrassed to reveal he never played multiplayer?

If you want to play a fun game, follow these instructions.

 

1. Get 30 games exp

2. Use names like sinkillr or seleueucia.

3. If name is taken, simply press alt 255 at the end of the name.

4. uninstall sins

5. Install hawken

Play vs ai on point blank. Rush a vasari star base and bomb ai

planet with vasari siege cap. Takes about 5 min. Repeat 100 times.
