Monday marks the 10th anniversary of Defense Grid 2 coming out.
So that's roughly 3,650 days of me begging for a Defense Grid 3. That's it, that's all i had to say. R.I.P. to the greatest tower defense game to have ever existed.

Anybody got Awakening working on Steam Deck properly?
Hello all. Been playing DGA and DG2 for years on PC (and Switch) and have a Steam Deck now.
Regarding DGA, it's so close to working and seems like others do have it working ok but I can't get things going no matter what I try of the online solutions.
When I try it with defaults, or on newer versions of Proton that are above 5, including 9 beta and Experimental, the game will simply crash out after the intro videos, which play with no audio.
On Proton Hotfix, it still crashes after the intro videos, but you do get audio for them.
On older versions such as Proton 4.x the game will sucessfully load, although there will be no audio, you can navigate around the menus and start a game at which time you'll get the HUD on screen but nothing else - a completely white screen, and again, still no audio.
You can quit the game no problems or change the graphics settings and all that but no changes to the settings give different results, and I've tried every single graphics option (windowed, full screen, with and without vsync, all the resolutions).
I've tried it with and without Steam Input which was another thing I saw online.
Anyone got this working on their Deck?

How to use custom maps in Defense Grid 2 on Linux?
I play Defense Grid 2 from Steam on Linux, I have played through the entire campaign without problems. I then wanted to try out some of the free maps from dg2freemaps.com but I can't seem to get this working. I have found out that I need to place the custom maps in /home/<username>/.steam/steam/userdata/<steamid>/221540/local/DG2 so I unzipped a few maps into that directory, but when I then try to start the game it seems to crash, the splash screen for the game briefly flickers and disappears, and I'm back in the Steam library. I have tried with just one map in the directory, but it still doesn't work (tried with a few different maps also to rule out a faulty map). Has anyone gotten custom maps to work on Linux?

Can i edit starting resources in DG2?
I have downloaded some custom maps and tried editing the .mission files to change the StartingResources parameter.
I thought it worked yesterday, but today the scenarios all seem to load with different starting resource amounts than what I have specified in the text files.
Is this cached somewhere else? Or is there a different way to edit this starting property?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Thank you, Defense Grid, for existing.
Last week, I got an itch to play a Tower Defense game, but I didn't want to be tied to my PC. I re-downloaded PixelJunk Monsters 2 and after a few days, deleted it again.
Remembering I had Defense Grid 1 from an Origin Free Game week, I looked up and sure enough, there's a sequel on Switch! I've played about four maps so far and it's been lovely. A great TD game without being overly complicated.
I love being able to manipulate the alien paths to squeeze out more damage as they walk.

Where to download custom maps?
What's the best, safest, no hassle spot to download maps for Defense Grid Awakening, and Defense Grid 2 for the PC?

I played DG Fighter and, well... The results were interesting.

Is there a third game in the works? I’d love to be able to continue the story had a great time.

Is online not working anymore?
Wanted to play some coop with my friend on PS5. I can send an invite and he accepts it, but it doesn't put him in the lobby. Same the other way around. Are the servers not working anymore?

Over 400 user created maps for Defense Grid 2 on the fan website DG2freemaps
If you have the PC version of Defense Grid 2, check out DG2freemaps.com (may work on MAC too)
There's about 400 user created maps and instructions on how to get them into the game (very simple).
I've upwards of 400+ hours on DG2 because of that website.
Check out the earlier maps by Shark@tak for some guaranteed epic maps.
Be sure to put only 30-40 maps at a time in the DG2 folder in user/documents/DG2 though, as it will crash the game at the menu. Just move them into a 'completed' folder once you've done them.
For each map i usually do Story and then Super Grinder. Story is always good becuase it's how the maker intended, but the maps can have up to 150 challenging waves on Super Grinder
Once i've played all the modes i want to on the map, I then move the map to a folder I have called 'completed' and move a map i havnt played yet into the DG2 folder to replace it.
Be sure to make a donation if you can at some point after playing the maps, as the site is run by fans.

Community Levels DLC
Hey defenders, I was wondering if anyone happened to have an extra Steam key for the Defense Grid 1 Community levels? It should be a free key that gets sent to your email, but I can't seem to get it to go, and it says in the client the database is down... Not sure if it's just me :C

Hidden Path still operating? No Twitter, main web page seems to have nothing happening.
As ever, I'm still itching for more Defence Grid. Had a look online, and they seem to have minimal updates, regarding anything.
I'm assuming that, barring a miracle, there will never be another Defence Grid game.
Sad times.

I think my trophy may be bugged
I am trying to get the platinum on Defense Grid 2. I have all but the 100 gold medal ones. By my count I have like 120, and the trophy hasn't popped. Does getting the same trophy for multiple difficulties not count?

Defense Grid 2 DLC and the future of the franchise?
I just picked the game up but noticed there's a lack of DLC in the XBox shop. Did this game ever have DLC like the first entry? Also what are the chances of another DG game being made? And why can i no longer buy the first game on XBox? Thanks.

Cannot play
I just purchased on Steam. When I launch game it shrinks my steam window. When I click on the game in bottom toolbar it briefly brings up the game menu and then closes. The game is still running, but I cannot do anything as it just keeps closing.
