So I give an order to a unit, what path does it take? When it shoots what random number angle did it shoot at? who does it shoot by default? Granted many things SHOULD come out the same when calculated with same code but they don't always do. And if it was this way... why have a half second delay? Why if one computer is slow should they all slow down? Why if one computer has a bad internet does everyone slow down? Now granted I've never written a commercial RTS engine (I have w

Who said creeps even had to be in the lane? whats to stop the assassins and generals from fighting over it at a part of the map with no creeps (see the lava map in the trailer for an example of what I mean) for a creep in their normal lanes? And plus who ever said assassins can't handle units? Torch Bearer has some very nice aoe spells from the look of it. And I meant it could hit a little harder than a minatour (like 25%-50%?) and there would be only one more unit. While some parts of

I think it should use a point system, what if some one doesn't like multiplayer, or likes playing a support demigods (and therefore getting few kills). With points for each achievement then you know how experienced the player is, and they can choose which demigod appeals more to them. Also unclean beast has fur! if you count bone as fur... and spikey metal as bone...

*Sigh* In supreme commander, evrey unit has a world position when that changes (because the units moving.. duh?) the game updates that in a packet, now I haven't worked with supcom and I don't know the details but I'm assuming like most RTS's it updates everything and then moves on to the next update (which would make sense if you think about the way the lag acts with more and more units) Now lets say a world position is an x and a y (as demigod doesn't do the z and a click is

Does it really matter these days which is more intensive? (I mod with the source engine (i.e. TF2/HL2)) Source spends more time updating animation frames(multiple integers each entity), game states(lots of stuff), health (float per entity), movement(float and vector per entity), world positions (three floats per entity), ammo (multiple integers per entity), freaking eye vectors(I mean thats just showing off), prediction numbers (for all that previous stuff), and a metric ton of other crap that t

Two responses to that reason: First theres more to being top player by dominating with your one 'perfect guy', the top player needs to be able to beat an opponent with any combo (all 16 thousand of them with 12 unique heroes in 5v5), he needs to be able to take the opponents play style and turn it against them regardless of which hero he got. And what if that one hero he chooses evrey game (in your reasoning) is imbalanced (like sera anyone?) in a game where skill (should) matter(s) mor

Reply to Assassins > generals?????? in Demigod Demigod Forums

Well so far everyone seems to be favoring the assassin, and evrey one is also assuming roles, wither troop killing or demigod killing. What I think is wrong with this is the fact that evrey demigod will play diffrent! Take queen of thorns, she's obviously a general made to hold one spot (not being able to move and cast, aoe push back, slow auras). If an assassin tries to attack her, It's probably going to end badly for him. Why do you think she told the rook to come closer!<br/

I said paying respect to slots, but ok, if you mean it that way by in the entire game then there are only 66 combinations, your math was still off there. But yes, a better measure would be how many team combos would there be in a 5v5 (meaning unique teams vs each other) which would be 792 unique combos for team A. Then team 2 would have 21 unique teams (as 5 heroes would already have been picked), meaning there are a total of 16,632 unique battles in a 5v5. You'd still have t

Reply to Can 2 or More players can Choose the same Heroes in Demigod Demigod Forums

Your math is wrong by the way innociv, with 12 unique heroes in a 5v5 its 12!/2!, which is 239,500,800 diffrent possibilities if each player has a unique hero, and you pay respect to which slot he has (meaning player 1 has 12 choices, player 2 has 11 choices). Without a unique heroes option its 12 ^ 10 power or 61,917,364,224 again paying respect to player slots. Either way theres a lot of numbers, just the difference between 61 billion and 200 million either way you'd have to

First on hero selection modes what about draft? (pick one at a time, alternating) what about mirror teams? or all same hero or some same hero? what about random draft (draft from a random selection)? You can't say that those are all the options there are tons more to choose from. Plus we don't even know when you pick your hero. And on the point of the number of heroes, we have 10 confirmed already and its still 6 months to release, so I'm sure theres gonna be more than 12, and

Reply to unit variety in Demigod Ideas Demigod Forums

In my opinion a little variety would be nice in basic units, especially if the team gets to choose, or you get by control points, for example: Team voting near the beginning of the match to decide between the faster creep, stranger creep, ect. but personally I like this much better: When the team captures a 'Manticor lair' they get Manticors spawning in that lane, or all the lanes. Manticors could be flying unit which slows enemy units and hit harder, allowing for that lane or

Well first the keys don't matter just the possibilities, as I am very confident in the fact that your going to be able to bind your keys ... (like almost any mainstream game these days), so the options are all thats needed, but as far the idea, it wouldn't be that bad other than the fact it might be a little buggy or strange in an engine made for an rts...

Reply to Assassins > generals?????? in Demigod Demigod Forums

Exactly diffrent generals will play differently, a general with flying units capable of fast movement compared to a general like queen of thorns with slow moving trees and an immobile casting platform. The first (as there is some sort of angel general I'm guessing from the trailer)would be fast crippling attacks, changing attack paths evrey few minutes, slowly pushing the enemy back, and pushing them where they least expect it, queen of thorns would be about holding a point against an onslaught
