[quote who="Frogboy" reply="2" id="2216773"]At least custom games are now largely bullet proof from what I'm seeing and chatting with other people (except, obviously for people who can't connect to anyone). [/quote] This type of situation shown in the screenshot also occurs during custom games as well, on a fairly regular basis.
Custom games work great. It is impossible for me to join a Panthon game. It tries to connect me with 5 other people, then when things are all looking good (everyone connected to everyone else), I am booted out and I get the error "You have been kicked because the matchmaking service has failed". I have sent my Impulsereactor and Demigod log files to you, Frogboy - as requested last night on IRC.

I'm on Vista 32, and I just waited out the problem. I found out about the alternate solution I posted afterwards.
To answer the original question - Sedna's pounce is not affected by armor. The only skill which is affected by armor, that isn't a direct weapon buff type of skill (angelic fury, god strength), is Rook's tower skill, and I'm pretty sure his shoulder towers are also affected..
In no particular order, Queen of Thorns, Rook (with a hammer slam, no towers build), and Yeti Sedna
This has happened to me. I waited it out, and was able to play the next day. However, I saw a post on here from a Stardock person saying that if you delete your game.prefs file, you should be able to log in.

Most developers / publishers would never come forward with this type of information to the public. As always, appreciate the update.
Would be a useful addition to the game. [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]
Say NO to banlists
Bump - this post is too good not to be at the top.
Choice for Random Demigod = good. Hopefully this will be implemented soon.
Odd that you are getting such low download speeds. I typically get 1 Megabyte per second through Impulse, while I'll get about 700 kB / sec through Steam. I'm in Canada, so you being in Europe may have some effect on this.
Nice tip - didn't know about that hotkey / feature.

Stardock is located in Michigan, don't see why they would be going by Central time.

If a player leaves the game mid-fight (ragequits), their demigod should also leave the game. Many times I have seen a game get completely ruined once the AI takes over, and starts feeding thousands of gold to the other team. I really believe that having an AI team-mate is more of a handicap than being short-handed by one player. At the very least, this option should be available in custom games.
After the patch hits on Monday - will you be increasing the size of Pantheon and Skirmish games above 2v2? Personally, I find 3v3 games much more gratifying than 2v2 games, and I think that having pantheon set to 3v3 as the new standard (for now) would be awesome.
Appreciate the update.
I briefly tested this, and it appears that minotaurs / archers that spawn out of your starting portal(s) DO NOT provide any experience. Easy to test, sit in base at beginning of game. I have not done any tests with neutral portals, or higher end creeps (angels, priests, giants, catas), though I suspect the results will be the same. I suspect the manual is incorrect.
Both bugs are extremely annoying! [e digicons]:cylon:[/e]
To get the money from a tower, do you need the killing blow? If not, is the money split to everyone on the team?
Same thing happened to me last night. Was doing a skirmish game, and during the "connecting to players phase" the game completely locked up. I had to do a ctrl-alt-del to kill the program. After re-launching Demigod, I got invalid username and/or password error for the remainder of the evening. I'm at work now, so I'm unsure whether this has been fixed for me yet.
