Is it possible to play multiplayer without steam?

[Dhael]

I was just wondering as i wait the game digital delivery. if it would be possible to play DotE without steam eating half of my ram mamory.
is it possible to play the game with hamachi, tunngle, or some program less heavy than steam?

Is it just me or does this guy sound like he wears an eye patch and has a hook for a hand?

You probably shouldn´t play any game with 156MB RAM :P

Sadly, the game uses Steamworks for its multiplayer - you can't play multiplayer without Steam.

I'm almost blind on my left eye, but i don't use a eye patch =p
steam gets +- 500mb from my ram, with is 2gb =/ it make some things hard to play

anyway, thanks for the answers o/

That´s too much :S
There must be something wrong with it. Mine is 78MB right now.
500MB is what the game itself should get from your RAM plus the +-80MB of steam.

A format is always useful xD
I still find odd that it gets so much RAM though it might be because of the age.
There´s some ways to improve the computer performance such as turning off visual effects, turning off real time antivirus and so on. It might help.

It looks like you are using a square screen.
I think there´s no option ingame to change that.
I´d try to change the screen resolution within the OS

[odomi2]

They are also working on more resolutions so you might be lucky...

hum...gona play with this screen for a while then, =/ os resolution is on the minumun to don't get overheat (sunny heat days)
ty odomi2 =]

try to put the next one that you see it´s widescreen. It may look odd for normal use but it might work for the game.
Problem is you should change it everytime you switch from the game to the everyday use, but it would be better than nothing.
Hope it works.
