Yarlen had me deleted the Demigod folder from My Documents and run the game again. Must have been some residual beta files or something. Everything seems to be working now. I know my computer specs aren't much of anything, but I never had a problem playing in beta but now I get this error after the opening cinematic.... c:\Work\forge\main\code\src\libs\gpggal\DeviceD3D
[quote who="DalzK" reply="24" id="2136092"]Oh and Custom Game Rankings and Skirmish should be under one ranking, imo. Its pretty annoying to have your stats split because you played some in Skirmish, then some in Custom Game, when at the end of the day they are basically the same mode but Skirmish is auto'ed. [/quote] Custom games are too easy to modify in a way to give you a constant stream of wins without requiring a large amount of time. I wouldn't want it mixing with my
[quote who="RiskbreakerRiot" reply="6" id="2131668"]I think they said somewhere that it doesn't work with integrated intel cards. [/quote] I run it on Mobile Intel 965 Express integrated card. Works fine on low settings. So it works. Just not supported.
My favorite is the map with more than two start points. Having to defend both bases would be a lot of fun in a 5v5.
[quote]as with all last minute balancing, I'm sure it will be subpar, and a few days of public play will reveal many problems.[/quote] I'd assume so as well. But oh well, they are commited to continually working on the balance for awhile.
[quote who="AngryZealot" reply="22" id="2127578"]Everyone and their dog knows that Rook is overpowered. Those who insist otherwise are in denial and the subject of my earlier replies. [/quote] No way! You're nuts! I beat 1v1 playing as Sedna against a Rook AI opponent and beat him easily. And it was NIGHTMARE AI, that is like totally way harder than playing a human player! EDIT: Gamma has all the balance updates in it which we didn't get to play with.&nb
You mean Regulus was easy to to kill until he leveled up some? Shocking! You need to work on your game and stop throwing this crybaby fit about Flurus. Notice how nobody supports you? You are spouting nonsense. You let a huge level deficit to occur which shouldn't have happened no matter what and you really weren't supporting your AI teammates. Flurus is one of the top players, you are not. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to get onlin
[quote who="DakinyKilla" reply="13" id="2126726"]Interesting you all just discount that as being juvenile [/quote] Flurus is a well known member of the beta community and we are all having a laugh at him being accused of hacking/cheating. While anyone who has enjoyed a Flurus smackdown can understand your frustration, you should do yourself a favor and better learn the mechanics of the game.
Looking forward to it
I've had a great time with the game and the community. Even with the current state of beta, the game is still a great way to waste 30 minutes. I can see this staying on my computer for a long time. I'm eager to run through single player as well as see how I rank against the masses of new players come release.
On one side is myself and 4 Nightmare AIs against 1 Easy AI. Gold set to filthy rich, war rank set to 10, level set to 20, tower strength set to low, grunts set to high, spawn rate set high, game speed set high etc. I start the game, buy all the reinforcement upgrades and in about 2 minutes or less the enemy citadel is destroyed. I never have to move. Rinse and repeat to online ranking glory. Please tell me this won't be possible with the release version [
I did my taxes a long time ago. We bought a house and had a baby last year so we had tax deductions up the wazoo. Got $3500 total. Good year so I'll be playing Demigod as much as possible.
1. [b]Elemental: War of Magic Beta[/b] - Looking forward to the beta. Everything I've seen so far looks great. 2. [b]Demigod[/b] - I can easily see myself playing for the rest of the year, beta has been really fun. 3. [b]GalCiv 2[/b] - It just never gets boring and sounds like we'll see a new update before too long. Also Sins and Starcraft 2 if it makes it out this year.
It has many RPG elements. When you play it, you'll see.
You get the collector's edition when you order through Stardock
I look forward to it being added to their other games as well.
Respawn after a short period of time? Believe me that is the longest 30 seconds ever [e digicons]:P[/e]
[quote who="WhopperJr" reply="1" id="2118249"]Sure I can tell them to /join #WhopperJr But that means that I still need a different tool to organize the team... aka skype or somthing of the sort. The only problem is that say I want to play against another clan and they don't use skype... Looks to me that they won't be able to know if i'm online or msg me for a match. Am I wrong?

[quote who="WhopperJr" reply="18" id="2116506"]2. Have a solid way people can communicate. Sins is a poor example, btw. There should be a messenger window that you can have up the entire time. When your in the lobby looking for a match or if you are in game talking with another friend about starting the next game. And NO, alt-tab to talk to m8's is bs. So making a shell program is not usefull at all.[/quote] Just press Shift-Tab and chat away. It is
Beta is effectively over, but if you want to do some testing hang out in #demigod and test out the network code with Cari. She has a test application that she has people run.
04/14 is the date we've been told
Thank you for the mod [e digicons]|-)[/e]
Stop trying to glorify yourself
[quote who="TwisTED" reply="2" id="2108938"]If you hold a flag, it isn't just exra war rank for you, it is deminished war rank for your oponent.[/quote] Absolutely correct and it is an element that is often overlooked by inexperienced players. They (and AI of course) tend to ignore flag capture or just go for 20% experience flag. If you can get your opponent behind in war rank it can be just as effective at getting them behind in experience levels. If I'm protected b
