Nat Facilitator Issue - 8/15/2011 3pm Est - MP WORKS AGAIN!

Nat Facilitator Issue - 8/15/2011 3pm Est - MP WORKS AGAIN!

Everyone that plays Demigod online is aware that there is currently an outage on the Demigod MP servers (anytime you host a game, you get the Nat Facilitator error).  The issue began on 8/3/2011 around 2AM EST and is still ongoing as of 12:50PM EST. 

I've chatted up a few people at SD (and sent the appropriate emails to support) and they are aware of the issue.  The issue appears to be because many of the servers that were once housed at Stardock are being moved to Gamestop facilities.  The closest thing I've got to an estimate on how long it will take to get things back up and running is "hours yet, maybe a day."  So, they are working to resolve this.  I'd just check back in from time to time and see if things are back up and running. 

Update 8/3/2011 from Island Dog:  "Just an FYI that it won't be back tonight, they are looking at sometime tomorrow."

Update 8/4/2011 from T-man:  "We are still working on getting the NAT Faciliator back online.  But due to several technical difficulties it is unlikely that we will get it back online this week.  I would estimate that we will have it working again mid next week. Our apologies for the inconvenience."

 

Update 8/15/2011 around 3PM EST:  The servers appear to be back up and the issues seem to have been resolved.

Stardock deleted my post asking if anyone had a link for a cracked .exe file so i can get games going on Gameranger. So they are reading, they just can't be bothered to update us, or tell us if the game will ever be coming back.

I've made so many wonderful friends from this game... all that lobby wait time really was just bonding time for all the players.

It's so sad :(

I deleted your post.  It should be obvious as to why it was inappropriate, even if you are frustrated.

Error notext when the game starts?  Might have to delete your games.pref or whatever it is.

Can anyone else confirm?  We back in business?  Thanks.

OK. I have clear my registry. And it works. Test 2v2.

Clear registry!: Delete folder : C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\My Games\Gas Powered Games\Demigod

heh... some of us can't access the pantheon stats from work... someone might be me.  OK.

 

Looks like we are back in business.  I'll make a proper update to the OP in a little bit.

I was not looking to steal their game, I have already paid for it, I just want to actually... Play it.....

 

 

Tried the lobbies, they kept crashing, so a work in progress.

It's working! Almost nice to have a little break from it for a while, makes you appreciate it when you get it back. Still no one playing it though, just Doggu on his own in a lobby, I can almost hear the echoes of him rattling his perspex beakers and bunsen burners around in there.
