[quote]Makes the mobs a real mute point though. That doesn't make sense to me to make last hit and mob kills pointless.[/quote] They're not pointless, they're there for xp. XP is gained on a tactical level, gold on a strategic level, and I see no problem with that at all.
Copy and paste from the save option in dxdiag.
[quote]has anyone else tried to boulder, then warp scroll and hammer immediately, its almost always a ko for a torchbearer. Its sooo over powered but i don't know of any way to stop or nerf that without ruining so other fun[/quote] It's not that overpowered. Think about how much gold you spent to get that warp scroll for that one battle. That should buy you a big advantage. If it didn't, that would be a problem.
Screenshot? If the icon turns into a red circle, it's because the icon variant wasn't included in this version.
It's an annoyance, but it doesn't even matter. Torchy's mode is going to be a toggle for next revision, so this problem won't arise.
No, it's the physical maximum resolution. HDTVs are built to ridiculously resolution standards compared to monitors. I'm still not sure why they're more expensive.
[quote]Yes, you can differentiate by adding special bonuses at the end, but 72 different ones? Sooner or later, some poor "top-tier" item is going to get stuck offering protection from disco music or sweaty palms.[/quote] Then don't add too many, it'll make the buying process easier, spread the complexity out better, and all sorts of other benefits.
Balancing the need to go back and the need to fight is an essential game mechanic. You can make going back quick by buying two teleportation scrolls for 200 gold, warp back, warp up front again quickly. They can't push that far while you're gone.
I think that you're having those problems because your card doesn't support the proper Shader models. If that card is what I think it is, then it only supports shader model 2, which this game apparently doesn't. I'd look into getting it upgraded, but with a computer like that, I'm not sure if the upgrade would be very easy. I don't know if you have an AGP or PCI-e slot to put the card into. You probably have an AGP slot, which limits you to older cards, but you'll be able to run the game. Sor
[quote]The sudden spikes were exactly like what we were seeing without the high load on the drive, only more.[/quote] In that case, then the loading scripts should be optimized as the game continues production and features begin to settle so that your computer can maintain a steady level of loading instead of bursts.
[quote]They are told to move at it when their hp is low, but not to go back and attack whenit's full probably..[/quote] This makes a lot of sense. The enemy ones tend to do better, though, which is odd. I think that it may be the boundary case is wrong, because they will go back a lot of the time, but if they're not moving and fully healed, they aren't moving for the rest of the game.
http://demigod.kryofx.com/ has all the bugs listed with links to threads with them in it. Now you know, and this one's already on the 'to fix' list.
I don't love these either. The current ones are more exciting and interesting (even if rook roll is imba). Turning into a wall would be intesely boring for the player, and serve very little tactical benefit because creeps will auto attack him (and consequently be stopped by him) and he'll take less damage if he just kills them.
And the devs have said they're looking into it, so it's a non-issue (unless they don't, but then the riots will be a bigger issue).
[quote]I know people have their own thoughts on how fast a game should play but is there a way to speed up or slow down the game speed? if not, I suggest the "+" and "-" keys be used to adjust the game speed.[/quote] Game speed adjustments would be good for games with only one player, but they could be abused with more than one. I'd say implement them for 1 person comp stomps but have adjustments that take place before the game starts (in the lobby) and can't be changed for multi-pla
[quote]So it's like that, everyone would HAVE to buy an anti-stun item because stuns are overpowered. I don't think that is the right solution. But balancing out stuns and having items that manipulate them would be alright. But stuns need to not be where it's like everyone must buy an anti-stun item to play the game, using up one of their equip spots.[/quote] This. A game that offers choice is only fun if the choices are choices. If it's too automatic, then most of the fun of makin
[quote]I'm not sure though, but it'd make sense to so they just dont get 1hitted when your enemies are lvl 15.[/quote] This. I wonder if minions will gain in stats as their general does, in number, or in both? That's an important question.
Yep, that's what's always been discussed. How close is it going to be to this thing which provides the best comparison? It's natural to want to compare, it lets you make points more easily, but the question of how accurate the comparison is keeps coming up.
[quote]Those are 6 things off the top of my head that I think the game needs to reach above 4/5. I think missing any of the 6 items above would automatically disqualify it from much above 4/5. Miss two things and it would be lucky to get 4/5 unless it made it up big time somewhere else.[/quote] Perfectionist. I think that if you hit all those things you'll have an excellent case for 4.75/5 or the equvalent. but perfectionism's good, it's why I love your games. I kind of meant
OMG WTB edit. Forgot to say this, the first thing I said is unclear without it, but I think your computer thinks it's on a lan, but isn't. Very strange.
Hmm, that's very odd. Make sure you have a profile, but I think it's an issue with your connection.
[quote]Failed assertion: localClientIndex != -1[/quote] There's your problem. Do you have a profile set up and everything? It seems that the game is adding you to the list of local clients wrong, and a missing profile would explain that, because that error seems to indicate the computer thinks there are no local clients (null indexed, so no clients means that the index would be -1). Hope this helps.
[quote]That wouldn't be good [/quote] No. This is the most intuitive way to fit that much depth into the game while still letting the player process it slowly enough that they can make good decisions in game. What about putting in the tooltip what attributes of an item can be increased? So underneath the bonuses it gives you immediately, it has in one color the tier 2 upgrades and in another the tier 3 upgrades. Does this even make sense?
