[BUG SUMMARY] [BETA 3] - A SUMMARY of reported BUGS post up
Demigod Forums
Hey Guys,
Since MANY bugs are to be expected and I was just thinking in a moment of super efficiency to make a post that summarises the bugs for Stardock to benefit from so DO NOT post your bug here - FIRST MAKE an adequate [Bug] Thread explaining your bug, write your thread and THEN WRITE IN HERE A QUICK NOTE OR SUMMARY INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING
1. Link to your thread
2. (If Possible) a quick summary of what the basics of your bug are (at least I won't have to read it all)
This is just an idea in case we get many many posts and its to keep it tidy... I know OrelanKnight thinks its useless but I just want to help 
Key:
BUG OF INTEREST: A bug of HIGH importance to the game core (in my opinion)
BUG OF INTEREST: A bug of MEDIUM importance to the game core (in my opinion)
note: this is just an idea to point out a level of fatality to this bug to the game

3. Camera (Rotation) Problem - LINK HERE BUG SOLVED BY REBOOT
by Kr3v
Camera will NOT STOP turning as if the Q button for camera rotation was constantly pressed while in game. NO joypad is being used just keyboard and mouse and I assume key bindings couldn't have been edited.
4. Games that Show but SHOULDN'T - LINK HERE
by DalzK
I hosted a game then minimized - I crashed. Got Demigod up and running again and when I went to lobby I could see my game was still up, which it cleary wasnt.

Just a SS showing that I could see my previous crashed game.
5. Alt Tab while hosting has HIGH Chance to CRASH - LINK HERE BUG OF INTEREST
While Hosting a game if you alt tab there is a high chance of crashing. This was tested (SEE POST) and the preliminary results are that as you alt tab while there are people CONNECTING to the hosted game you will crash when tabbing back in at the grey overlay screen.
6. Bug Collection - LINK HERE
by Rackjabbit
6.1 Cinematic Mouse
Mouse cursor is visible during opening cut scene/cinematic. Suggested it best not be cisible
6.2 Textured Brothers (MAP)
On the map, "The Brothers," if you zoom all the way out and rotate at certain angles, the ground textures disappear and so does some of the ambient lighting on the skeletons. A friend was able to replicate this on entirely different hardware.
6.3 Pathing Issues (MAP CRUCIBLE)
On crucible (ALSO experienced by myself) at times if you send your character back to base from the middle or from further away from your base, rather than walk around the circular path to the base the character will instead AT TIMES take a direct line to the base and get stuck.
6.4 Cooldown Bypass BUG OF INTEREST
It seems that there is a way to bypass Item cooldowns by buying a new scroll or potion as tested in the case of Rackjabbit, He was able to teleport to base buy a scroll wait to finish the 5-6 second healing process and port right back into battle adn the same cooldown was bypassed for a healing potion in the same way. SEE POST
7. Joining Games and Password Problems - LINK HERE BUG OF INTEREST
I was also testing connectivity which now seems to be mildly better and more bearable now that you can curse the person you cannot connect to. However ahere are the following problems I discovered: (SEE POST for expanded details)
1. Connecting a second time will freeze the game:
2. Connecting to a Pasworded game and clicking Cancel will freeze the game instantly:
3. Connecting to a Passworded game and clicking OK with no/wrong password will freeze on second connection:
