innociv, all the upgraded items are a new items at least from a combinatorical point of view, and in a non-hierarchical system you could get them without getting the unupgraded before, thus more combinations - would probably suck with your item ideas, just saying.
I totally agree that it sometimes is hard to recognize regulus or other Demigods and which team they belong to, however I think there should be a better way than strat icons to solve that problem. I am no gfx expert but I am sure you can do it without strat icons.
nah strat icons are not needed for Demigod, they aren't very beautiful and you can see the units without it anyways as they are bigger than in supcom.

Zaisha, in supcom you can zoom in with holding "q" and zoom out with holding "e". most likely the functionality is still there in Demigod just it has no button assigned. That being said, I strongely recommend getting a mouse for your laptop.
any sort of hierarchical system reduces the number of possibilities compared to a non-hierarchical system with same number of items; not saying that is a bad thing, just stating it. Upgrade system pose the very serious threat that people will go buy 1 item and upgrade it to max before buying another one, of course that is subject to balance but if there is any upgrade system i
Trigeminal its about having control over your own creeps not about the portal-spawned one (those has already been confirmed to be not controllable by a general in any fashion at all). Btw if you assume Generals can only build their special unit, Tyo said in that walkthrough video from PAX that as general you can make your own troop mix. I&

about 15 skills for each demigod!
we shouldn't jump to conclusions just yet I think, it may turn out cool and strategical.
well there is also the possibility to be able to give some general orders for all your minions or squads of them like , h + leftclick on a certain spot means "move there my minions", but we will see.
this pretty much sounds like we don't get direct control over minions with generals :/
WarlokLord, afaik GPG already stated that they want to blur the line between Assassins and Generals somewhere in these forums.
I think Recipes don't really add to the strategy as the items you get early on confine you pretty much in what items you will get later on as the very nature of crafted items is that they are stronger then normal items. I think this results in less adapting to the actual situation as the loss to give up the recipe item for the items bought most likely is rather big.
they should vanish after some time imo, however it should be longer than 45 seconds, something between 80 and 100 seconds I think, if they turn out too strong then, damage and hp can always be adjusted.
LoL might become a good game, it surely will be a lot more similar to Dota Allstars (nothing wrong with that) than Demigod. I certainly would like to play it from time to time if it turns out to be a fun game with no monthly fees. There is 2 possible problems I see for them however: 1) too high expectations of the dota community&
I don't see how he can be wrong by always winning with tb :P I've played quite a few 1vs1 games with my Bro and unless him or me made a stupid mistake TB always won. UB also doesn't really have a higher movement speed, both start with 7.0 and UB gets +30% while TB gets +29,5% (should be 27% but the fire aura stacks wrongly)
TB with fire aura is the strongest hero currently I think even stronger than UB, at least before UB gets level 15 and especially if you play 3vs3 and have an ally on the same lane. UB can't really do much against TB because TB with fireaura has enough speed to fire and move away without getting hit.
yep lightning towers give 1000 Gold and archer towers 1600 (or 1500 not totally sure), don't know the value for forts.

in my opinion it should be unit targetted to that degree that if you click on an enemy demigod while being out of range he will slam the position where the enemy is at the moment you begin to cast (I think thats how it is now), but it should also be possible to click on the ground to be able to hit moving enemy demigods.
its not the engine which is laggy in supcom, its just the setting of net_lag 500, if you reduce that setting to 20 for lan play it plays nearly as smooth as starcraft and same is true for Demigod.
funny that you mention 200ms as this is the amount of netlag Demigod has by default - Warcraft III on battle.net has 250ms btw. If you really experience a half second of delay that must be a bug or something. However for Singleplayer games you can change it with the command net_lag xyz in the console - push ctrl+~ to open the console (at least if you have english keyboard layout).
sounds more like you are an anti-fanboy :P on the matter of item recipes , they have the major flaw that you most likely would need to remove the ability to drop items if you don't want the game to get stupid mechanics like "all buy one item which is needed for the most powerful artifact, then one of them picks it up and owns everyone". Item dropping and exchanging is a cool thing which can add lots of depth for demigod (for example you drop your mana regen helmet if yo
It definitely was the activation limit for spore - I didn't buy it myself for this reason nor did my uncle who really wanted to buy it before (he said he'll buy it once and if EA decides to sale it for 10 Euro). Many gamers like to play old games now and then and knowing that there is a 3 activation limit is really a turnoff. It also makes burrowing the game to a friend more or less impossible as it take one of only 3 activations and while that might be goal, I feel violated in my rights as g
Blitz64, I doubt there will be a possibilty to play a ranked 5vs5 match with your friend and 3 randomly added strangers, either it will be completely arranged or completely random (I hope they include both). So if you want to play a ranked 5vs5 with your friend I guess you'll have to ask around for a few teammates. Thinking about it again... I think it would be totally 
Innociv, Diablo is a PvE game and vs Monsters its alot easier to have a "perfect" build then vs players as players unlike monsters adapt; I mean in the end RTS like Starcraft of Supcom also have just a few numbers (a bit more fore supcom^^) and still I doubt there is a mathematical way to have a perfect strategy, Demigod might have only 5 Demigods in a 5vs5 but I guess the amount of possible variations of decisions will still be higher than 10^12 and then there is still t
