We get it, you don't like nickels and dimes; full expansions are the shiz-nit. Drop it already. [/quote] LOLOLOLOLOL!!!! Great reply. Thanks Brad for clearing things up.

[quote who="Seraphim_" reply="1" id="2508181"]oculus sux. No point taking him in realy tough fight [/quote] When you're given something free, just say thank you. When the first reply is a negative post such as yours, do you have to wonder why Stardock would rather just move on? People thought DA 'suxed' too, but now I watch players rip me a new one with him.

The PARTIAL list looks good. But I do hope there will be more buffs in there for QoT. jorune
Kevin, you know what else would make people stop playing Demigod? When someone hosts a game, picks Erebus and Crucible map, and than, when it appears he's going to lose, the person chooses to exploit the map by batswarming into the enemies base from the side of the 'cooldown flag', capturing the enemies portal, lock and batswarm out. Than batswarming in whenever needed to recap the flag. It circumnavigates the point of the long hallway on Crucible. It may be different using portal scrolls tha
It's been happening to me lately. Just started a game, the player on my team Reg gets killed, leaves the game and we get the Desync error. Jorune
http://pantheon.demigodthegame.com/game/747368/player/23298/ He concedes and leaves and the system decides the game has ended when he left. It continued for another 15 minutes and my side won, yet EVERYONE got the loss EXCEPT for the player that left. EDIT: just realized he also got 90 favor points?? And everyone else got zip. Whoa boy. I can understand the connectivity issues, but I hope by the time th
I know you have SO much that you want to go into this game and have to stop somewhere, but has their EVER been a discussion on bringing in Unique Characters into the game, like Master of Orion 2's Admiral's, Planetary Governors, etc. I always loved the personality it brought to the 4x game in general and have always been perplexed why it hasn't been brought into other 4x games. This editor is for races, but if something were tweaked, we could create unique generals that give bonus' to the arm
I've searched and found posts about the subject without actually giving a concrete answer. It 'seems' SD is a bit hush on this which may be because they are still trying to fix Pantheon. jorune
[quote quoting="post"]Was part of the beta, was unimpressed. Actual game mechanics aren't as tight as DOTA. [/quote] Good post, you stated in a mature manner your issues with the game. That said, I have HEARD (cannot confirm), that DotA has a high learning curve. Is that because of the gameplay itself, or because the community is so advanced? I never played games online before UNTIL Demigod. I find it easy to get into. Perhaps they made it too casual for
I'm just curious IF the AI is on the list of fixes coming down the pipeline. Or is this game viewed as a Human Multiplayer Only game (by the developer/publisher, not the community). jorune
[quote who="T-Man" reply="6" id="2179716"]I have just made a tweak to the match making system to try and limit the chances of getting in a 2v1 match. But its not entirely possible where it could happen based on skill levels. [/quote] Much appreciated! I hope the doubters read this and realize that GPG and Stardock REALLY ARE trying to whip this game into shape. Jorune
[quote who="Despayre" reply="2" id="2178843"]Yeah I just finished a 2v1 10k dominate map on crucible. Worst matchup on the worst game type on my least favorite map..Luckily I was on the winning team and got 210 favor but who cares when favor is broken? If a player drops, then they MUST get replaced with a hard AI at the very least. [/quote] that's the thing, no player was dropped. It set the game up as a 2vs1. in another thread I just found, it app
I just got into a game with THREE players. That's right, THREE. Two Rooks vs. Erebus. Well, Erebus didn't win. No AI for the gimped player. How is this EVEN possible. I give credit to the Erebus player. He stuck it out all the way through. He told me that it was happening to him ALL night. I felt bad for the guy. All he got was 10 favor points to show for it. I heard the matchmaking was f-ed up, but I thought they meant connection problems. I didn't know they meant THIS kind of proble
No doubt Demigod is a GOOD game. First game to get me to play online ALL the time. But since I play on my laptop, I'm mobile. And I don't always have the inetrnet. Combined with a flakey MP experience, when a player drops I've got an AI teammate. Or should I say, when a player drops, its game over. What happened to the AI. I know its a GPG game, but I thought with you on board, we'd have a good AI to go along with it (like you did for SINS). On Hard level, the enemy AI is tougher, whi

[/quote] What's REALLY funny is how much people seem to have NO PROBLEM with a crappy AI. Let's not belittle a good SP AI. I'd rather people learn how to play in SP than have a noob on my team in MP. Also, there are times I want to play, but cannot get online. And for the MP snobs, what do
Thanks for keeping us informed and treating us like intelligent and mature gamers. Wish other companies did. Jorune
[quote who="Tsunamirain" reply="14" id="2171228"]Oh and I also want to add take your time with new concepts. I love how each original demigod is solid in their own unique way. Not saying you won't use any R&D, but I believe this game has a huge potential to stand above the crowd. And yes, I know this is only a blueprint concept. [/quote] Totally agree. A 'classic' mage is like, bleh. I think Brad's been too long in Elemental ;-) I would wan
I love the game and consider it my game of the year. Too early in the season you say?? What about SC2?? This is the FIRST game that has me playing online consistently. I was a single player only kind of guy, but now I'm hooked. You don't forget the gateway game that did that (btw, mid-thirties, playing on the pc since mid twenties). That said, I do feel for those with connectivity issues, of which none do I have. So I have no idea what the experience is like from your end, and would p

I buy the second cheapest helmet (forgot the name) that regenerates 35 mana a second. Or at least thats what it says. I've timed it, and I'm not getting 35 a second as far as I can tell. More like half that if even. Was it something changed that didn't make it into the item notes? It seems it takes more like 3 seconds to recoup 35. Jorune
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="15" id="2157899"]Stardock NEVER abandons games. We still support online games for The Corporate Machine and that was 8 years ago. We still do free updates to Galactic Civilizations II. We don't look at our games as a product alone. We look at them as a service. ... Once we do that, we can start to talk about things peopel would like to see. New items, balance changes, new features, and so on. [/quote]<
[quote who="ZehDon" reply="7" id="2152044"] Posting a positive opinion about a game I can't play is as dishonest as reviewers posting negative reviews of the same game. [/quote] I am in no way suggesting that those who dislike the game, or those who are having problems playing the game should go out and write positive reviews when they ARE NOT feeling good about the game experience. But there are many of us (I'm not saying all of us, or most
[quote who="LogicX7" reply="3" id="2151965"]I bought this game, and I'm honestly regretting it right now. I enjoy the points in time where I'm actually able to play, but that has included single player, and exactly zero multiplayer games in ~2 hours of trying. The fact that Stardock is taking full responsibility for botching the release is, to be fair, pretty much owning up to the fact that they DO deserve what they're getting. [/quote] I am starting my
"Now, while the reviews are likely to have a pretty serious impact on sales, it does not affect our plans to continue to release updates and enhancements to the game nor does it affect our plans to release additional free Demigods." &nbs
