As many have noticed Desura forums have been down for a few days. There is no direct news but I believe it is safe to say there is no more Desura. There is a backup available and Red_Rob has more details. I hope you will put a link here Rob. At this time, the only source of updates is via Steam and the Steam forums are the official Illwinter forums for Dominions. I have no information if that will change. At this time, it is unlikely to change. I am looking at options to host the patches here but I have no information of a date or plan for that yet. Stay tuned. |

The backup Maerlande mentioned is here: http://dom4archive.kermodebear.org/www.des...ions/forum.html I'd like to make clear that I didn't arrange this or host it, it was something posted back when Desura started getting flaky but I don't remember the poster. As such I don't know how stable or long-term it is, it might be worth mining anything worth keeping from the backup and porting it over. |

I was about to say the Desura has been back up for a while. (All May, I think.) I wondered whether I should suggest that another backup be made, so I went to look at the number of new threads. I was not too surprised to see that, since this morning, it went down again. So, I cannot make the message of triumphant return that I meant to. Rather, Desura is not dead but most certainly not alive. Obviously, this thread is not meant to track its every up & down, so I doubt there is more to say. (Other then to reprimand me for posting the not-so-useful message that Desura was up for some time that is neither now nor then.) |

As far as I know Desura hasn't actually gone down for any real length of time since it sprang back to life. However, it is noticeably more temperamental than it was previously, sometimes taking a while to load or 404'ing until I reload it a few times. This might be what happened to you, ArcdeSeel. The backup in the post at the top of the thread is updated every few days, so anything new posted is usually there. |

Gah. I had no idea Desura was up. I feel a little like a man who has been living in a bomb shelter while the world lived on overhead. Every time I tried to load my links it took so long and 404'd so often that I figured they were still down. They are definitely temperamental, usually taking a few attempts to get a thread to load. |

Looks like Desura has had another funny turn. It's telling me there is no game content available and won't let me log in. This could be it for good... |

I can log in to Desura just fine, but yes, there the front page states "No Game Results Found". Funnily enough, if you click on the banner advertiseing "The Foolish Brave" game, it takes you to the "Games/Subterrestrial" game page, and you can go up one level by clicking on "Games", which allowse you to browse their entire catalogue. Weird!

Check the top of the Desura page: 'New Updates Coming Soon!!!' with no link to the bankruptcy discussion anymore , Apparently it's been like that for at least 2 days. I also see a poll on Game servers in the community page which I don't remember being there before. |

Desura has assumed a new form of unlife, it seems. |

Definitely interesting. I suspect that their plan to keep the sites separate isn't exactly a long term plan and the three will be integrated to increasing degrees over time. |

It's up last night and today, though. I made a topic there on the Half-Way Inn; it has got replies and another topic come up on the MP board. I also looked at their site's general forum. One topic had been made there. In the Dom4 board and the General board, these are the first posts since 9/16. |

desura seems permanently down, and it is now also included in a list of hacked sites. (see: https://www.troyhunt.com/ive-just-added-2844-new-data-breaches-with-80m-records-to-have-i-been-pwned/ ) if you had an account at desura, and resused passwords, change them. |

[Maerlande] Because it was a smart idea. Soyweiser was right. The irc channel: #Dominions on irc.gamesurge.net | |
