What a week this has been. PAX and Castle Crashers coming at us back to back? Talk about a win-win situation -- unless, of course, the former prevented you from becoming intimate with the latter.
While Castle Crasher's netcode remains bothersome, that's not to say it'll be impossible to get a few Destructoid groups going. The key word here is persistence.
If you're eager to tackle the entire campaign from start to finish with a level one character, you've come to the right place. I'm not sure about the rest of you, but I have already invested 20+ hours in CC and I am still antsy just thinking about it.

Dtoider smerff wants to know if anyone would be interested in a dedicated server for either Freelancer or Counter-Strike: Source. Well, would you? Leave a comment with your thoughts on the matter.
The following hosts are European, and may or may not still be hosting by the time you read this. Alternatively, if you want to get your gaming done earlier on (say 5:00 p.m. EST), these are the people you'll want to talk to.
Wow PAX is cereal. I think I hear crickets... anyway, have some tasty copy pasta I wrote earlier.
If you want to share weapons in Castle Crashers:
1) Drop your weapon buy picking up a new one from a treasure chest or loot drop
2) Have someone else pick up the new weapon and once they touch it, they can access it at the frog.
3) Repeat step one if someone else wants it, or if you want to give it back to the person who dropped it for you.
But be careful though if you aren't a high enough level the weapon will just disappear and go back to the frog.
be very, VERY careful about playing online. i don't know what i did, but somehow, all my weapons and pets were erased from my characters after playing an online match. my character data was ok, but i have no idea what the F-CK happened to everything else.
it just depends on ur luck i guess. i couldnt get any games to work on launch day but i havent been kicked out of a game all day,just got finished playing 3hrs straight. so it is possible just not very common it seems. :/
i need castle crashers but dont have a gold membership. so gay microsoft. charging for online game play. pc has done it free for years, ps3 does it. gay. just gay.
We came so very close to doing a full play through of Castle Crashers. Made it all the way to the final level. We gained and lost people along the way sure, but for the most part it was the same four guys.
Once these server issues are resolved Castle Crasher's is going to be even more amazing.

Um, excuse me, have you even TRIED to play Castle Crashers online? Don't even bother. Seriously. It won't work. Just go play CoD or something.
I think I'm beginning to see the irony of the name of Castle Crashers.
@ sharpless
it just depends on ur luck i guess. i couldnt get any games to work on launch day but i havent been kicked out of a game all day,just got finished playing 3hrs straight. so it is possible just not very common it seems. :/

Castle Crasher awesome confirmed! Best tip is to start a room and invite people you know. That will at least start you off moderately well.
Might even be good to go back to the map between level, to make sure things get saved.
Happy Crashing!
