thought about making a stream later on today at night but this is absolutelly awful, there is 10 players to play in my region and 9 of them are new to the game, also this scroll speed bug and the other bugs are stupid, to me it feels like they did this hd version just to sell more copies and get a little more money with it and then leave it and start a new project (maybe a aom hd 11).

Why cant I browse games fron Europe or NA?
There wasnt any type of warning about the game being region locked, and in the original version of the game, there wasnt any type of region lock.
Is this going to change?
Steam's lobby list by default will return the nearest games to you. It isn't region locked however, we've accepted game invites from people half way around the world.

The game is not region locked. We've tested matches with people 10,000 miles away. Steam's browser list matchmaking does return a list of results prioritized by region to give you preference to better matches, but if you've got a friend far away, have them shoot you a game invite.
Felt fine to me.
The Scroll speed is a bit limited, besides that there wasn't too many "unnatural" problems to my gameplay tonight.
There are of course things to improve, I'll talk to Ryzon on skype/steam after a few more days of testing it out and let him know about some crucial things like playing 1v1 on 3 player map size etc.
doesnt work .About the scroll problem :
As far as I know this release still uses Direct X, and in Windows 7 I had the same problem of slow scroll speed, but it solved with the Dxtool that came in the goodies folder of AoK, I remember that the "Use directDraw Hardware Acceleration" option had to be unchecked . Try that one and see if it helps.
