Everytime I log into Battlenet there aren't any games.
I am looking for melee games. None. And if there is one I get booted? Its so fast I don't even know what happened and I am back into the channel.

Okay, so I go to play custom games. All I effing see is something called DOTA. I don't know wtf its about but I can NEVER get into those games. Booted EVERY single time.

If all I can do is play against the computer what a complete waste of money.
How do people have such high level when there aren't even games to be played! Its like seeing people with ladder rankings in SC and there are NEVER any ladder games! DoubleW Tee Ef. (I know that the high ranks are hacked in ladder SC, but those who have like 23 games...seriously)

Did you at least even try the automatic system?

WC III's only advantages over StarCraft are both the world editor and B.Net interface.

But that's beyond the point.

Try it out, or play ladder as the bunny mate said.

@tronga, yes I've tried the automatic games. And they..or it, continues to search for 5 mins +

What is this ladder play I hear about? Not like I care to win or get good at ladder. I just want to play. How do I play ladder. Sounds like thats where the action is at. How do I get to it???

You HAVE to be joking. Seriously, how the crabshoes do you kiddies play?!! There are NO games. WTF
I'm upset. Seriously. I'm not much of a Warcraft fan so the campaigns aren't much to me and single player can only go so far.

agreed with what pan said there, when I go on bnet for ladder game sometimes, I always get a game in about.... 1 min? or less?


It might be your internet connection, firewall? closed port (even though that shouldnt affect your ladder gameplays)? internet protection programs?

yes, it doesnt take that long to find a game for me too! 30 secs for me! Im guessing it might be your internet connection. Or you play at 5 in the morning lol...

wc was by far the best investment ive made in my WHOLE LIFE in terms of satisfaction(no exaggeration)!

I don't search records? wtf?

Okay, I don't know why it takes so long. Usually I play @ 1 am in the morning on Azorath. (USEast) I search for all games! ANd there are hardly any!

Man, I will have to look into this farther. I don't know what is going on, but ports shouldn't be a problem...

Spam Ladder games, download any game that is hosted, just enjoy it. That is all I can say to you! That is how I continued playing Warcraft 3. About 50% of my fun comes from Melee, the rest from customs.

Alright, I tried a bit last after noon. I still had to wait longer than I wanted, and my games seem to be getting worse.
I was trying out some 1v1.

I'm a lvl 1, vs a lvl 6. NE
Next game, lvl 1. vs a lvl 10 HU
Next game, a lvl 1 vs a lvl 14 ORC

Seriously! I lost all those games. They lvl 6 rushed with a demon hunter and a few hunts.
The second game was just a slaughter house.
And the third, I was suprised! I did very well! Then I ran out of gold before I could make another ToL to get more gold. Otherwise I had the guy pretty much cornered. :)

cornering is good, but i can say the way they match you up in between games is pretty pathetic.
