The game's kinda fun once you're used to it. Especially if you find a nice familiar group to play with. Since stopping a long while back, I actually miss the game and the company. its true… players of island defense are even more rude and unhelpful to newcomers than dota ive played a couple of games now and usually by end game im kicked still, i dont know what ive been doing wrong which is why like the post above, ive pretty much given up on the game

G: That’s a waste. The game’s kinda fun once you’re used to it. Especially if you find a nice familiar group to play with. Since stopping a long while back, I actually miss the game and the company.

All the games I've been in were not at all noob friendly, and the built-in custom kick doesn't allow new players any in-game experience. I'm sure your games are probably courteous, but the all the ones I've been in--without exception--had not a single sympathetic player to newcomers. It was part of the reason why I gave up trying to learn to play this. Even if I, or any other new player, directly ask for even simple advice, everyone else laughs and is entirely unhelpful/offensive. <strong>G:</strong> I must apologise for the rude natured gamers. It's actually frustrating to see 'experienced' players treat new players with contempt. They don't realise that they were once new as well and that without new blood, the game will eventually dwindle and lose its appeal. Which server do you play on? I've found that most international playing grounds tend to have bad natured people playing. Unfortunately, the server that I'm usually on has been shut down. Else I would have been more than happy to host a game with you. At any rate, I can only say to keep at it. The learning curve isn't too steep (older versions are better for playing single player games to figure out the buildings and controls cause the Titan will spawn and allow you to mine for gold. Too bad the titan doesn't have AI to chase after you. It just sits there at the cave). My experience with Island Defense is that the players are just as rude/vulgar if not more so than in DotA.
