[Invitation] Stardock and GPG

Once netcode gets all smoothed out (this Thursday? :pout: ) I'm thinking it would be fun to put together some games of Demigod between Beta players and Devs...Not really a tournament, per se, just a chance to see what's up in Washington and Michigan...

Is that something that would interest GPG and Stardock?

If so, what are good days/times to put something like that together?

Thanks

Yes I think the devs should have to play a 2v2 against flurus and wagnard. I would love to know who wins.

Ke5trel, great idea.  Fingers crossed for thursday update.

Mcmjon: I wouldn't overestimate the Dev's skill in game. I once played a Dev of Total Annihilation and he was sub-par. Someone who is thinking up idea's for Maps and Graphics or animating creeps has no advantage while playing the game.

Just think of it more as a bonding session between the dedicated beta testers and the developers of the game.

Well if a dev do want to challenge us, I take it :banhammer: . Im sure Flurus is willing to do so too.

but bring thursday update and put observer in for letting everyone look that game :thumbsup:   .

hey I want to battle a dev to, though I have no clue how good or bad they might be, I think It'd be fun either way. Also if devs are going to show in mass plz on like friday night or anytime saturday.

GPG is definitely in! Let's set this up once we can reliably get into games.

Why not raise the stakes? Put the replay up somewhere nice and public.

OK Tyo. but just as a note im not availlable next week because of a surgery. so must be this week including week-end or after the next week (if im ok to play computer)

Reply #13 Top

ohh what kind of surgery and good luck with it. Also hurray gpg will play.

Sweet, dev bashes would be awesome :D.  Of course people like animators may or may not be so great, but someone like Tyo who presumably plays the game a lot might be pretty good.

 

Gamereplays can provide a place to upload replays, if the replays aren't bugged :grin: .  Uploading, downloading, reviewing, the works.

Is Chris Taylor going to play? He is my hero! I still play Total Annihilation to this date. XD

Reply #16 Top

total annihilation was the best did chris taylor make it. I remember all the units u could download so much fun. Me and my brother, and my best friend played it all the time. I remeber one of the units we downloadable had so much health that self destruct didnt kill it. When he self destructed it only took out like half his health lol. we figured they must not have thought a unit would have that much health so just made self detruct do a certain amount to user.

Agreed Soccer, Total Annihilation was so fun because of the GREAT modding community that was around at the time. Myself, i was a reviewer/tileset maker at TAMEC and it was an awesome community to be a part of. If Demigod's community was half of what TA's used to be i will be happy with it. Hopefully they release modding tools in the near future to let the modders get to work and build this game up into something massive.

Surgery to confirm if I have a Hodgkin Lymphoma (cancer). And I probably have it 90%+ chance. Its just doctors need confirmation before beginning anti-cancer treatment.

If it is two weeks they will schedule it right after the new beta release and crush us!!!  Also they should make their own dev clan.

I am in, totally. I played with Frogboy but not against a dev yet. GO beta testers.

Omg...I wanna use all the crazy IMBA's on the Devs :D :D
