[quote who="ViViDGear" reply="14" id="2317720"]Three enemy players with sim speed of 1 - 2. I played 15 minutes or so and it got even worse. We seemed to lose anyway so I minimized Demigod and started playing WoW. Because demigod needs large ressouces for an strategy game my pc went quite slow and after some minutes I was droped. In my case it was not intentional but I still would do it again (playing WoW in a horrible game). So perhaps h

Could work, but I imagine games would last very long if the teams are evenly matched (or even if they're not). Whats the last part of your post? Are those suggestions to Stardock/GPG, or what?

Maybe, but most of the maps are small enough and the camera is usually zoomed out enough that I've never had any problem figuring out where I am in a game. Maybe you just need to play a bit more. What I'd like to see is the ability to right-click on the minimap and move your demigod to that location. As it is, the minimap is a non-interactive layer, so clicking on it instead interacts with whatever object in the 3D world is behind the minimap.

I know this isn't the exact same thing, but, to dumb it down a bit, it's essentially Left 4 Dead in RPG form and with two teams? Sounds good to me. Co-op FTW (even though it's kind of competitive co-op).

I'm glad it wasn't Zero Punctuation. I've seen some of his reviews, and even though I didn't really like those games, he seemed to be criticizing them for all the wrong reasons. I know it's mostly supposed to be funny, but still. Anyway, it's nice to see Demigod get good reviews after its rather shaky beginning.

What was wrong with the miniature? I have a collector's edition and the miniature is great. It may not be colored, but it's very detailed and generally seems pretty high-quality. Anyway, I'm pretty sure ordering off the website will get you the collector's edition.

How does writing "k thx bye!!!" "make sure [the very big actual problem] was going to be addressed"? Anyway, you'll have to be more specific. Can you not select the abilities in the first place; or does the user interface reflect that they were selected, but nothing happens? Also, if you're going to say "k thx bye", you should do it the proper way, which is "kthxbai".

I can't believe this thread exists. First of all, connection problems probably wouldn't be any better as the game would likely still use P2P. Also, controls would be terrible. As a previous post said, how would you deal with panning across the map, selecting skills to learn, or buying items/citadel upgrades? Not to mention casting spells or even just attacking/moving. Sure, it could work like other RTS games where there's a cursor in the center of the screen, but the game is too fast-paced fo

[quote who="Vespucci" reply="6" id="2160554"] When I saw that my first thought was 'not another marza fanboy' and then I started reading. Surprise![/quote] Actually, you weren't far off. While I wouldn't consider myself a Marza "fanboy" (it's usually one of the last capships I build), I don't hate the design like so many others seem to; it's designed for functionality, not aesthetics, and it's certainly intimidating.

Huh? We can control our "guy" just fine. This is just a matter of being able to press a single button and stopping a Demigod from moving into enemy territory or casting a spell after a target has left the AoE. As it is, we have to tell it to move somewhere else, which can be awkward and annoying. Asking for a (very) small feature that every other RTS/RPG has hardly means we can't play the game correctly.

No offense, but I'm sure Stardock/GPG would've thought of that. There's probably a reason it's sequential (if it is). Of course, I could be wrong, and that could be one of the things they're planning on fixing. I try to pay attention in the daily status updates, but there's so much they're attempting to fix and it's hard to keep track.

Download the Demigod Replay Loader in the first post in this thread, and follow the instructions: http://www.gamereplays.org/community/index.php?showtopic=405375 It's not officially supported, and it isn't very stable, but it gets the job done.

I've noticed this, too. I think it probably has to do with the unpredictability of the human player. With the enemy all-AI team, the bots can "communicate" and execute tactics with each other. The allied AI could very well be trying to do the same thing, but the human player could make it unnoticeable/impossible. Of course, it could just be done on purpose to make the tournament more challenging.

I wholeheartedly agree. I often find mysef pressing S or T in an ateempt to stop my Demigod or Minions. A stop command would be excellent, especially if Stardock is trying to market this to RTS fans.

I just got mine, southeast Connecticut. Loved the figurine (it's standing on top of my monitor right now), the poster, the soundtrack, the manual... I would've preferred one of those large plastic cases just for the feel of it - Nevermind. After a little while I realized the box is just as good, if not better. It also fits snugly into the open spot I have on my game shelf :D

Do you mean that the camera rotates around your Demigod? That sounds like what happens if you hold down the spacebar, so you're either doing that accidentally or there's a bug that's causing the game to think you are.

You embedded the wrong video. That one's full of pointers about how to play Rainbow Six Vegas 2, Lost Via Domus, and DMC 4. The link is correct, however.

How long is it between tournaments usually?

I'm having the exact same problem. Pantheon worked fine yesterday, but isn't today.

[quote]Now if you just have to eat/have internet connection problems this will not be a big problem, you will ignore it.[/quote] Wrong. If I get insulted everytime I leave for dinner or my ISP craps out, I'll quickly lose interest in this game. Insulting players isn't a great way to keep a userbase.

Yeah the middle button is more suited to rotation rather than movement IMO. Anyone here ever play World in Conflict? That game had an awesome camera system.

Diablo III is one. I'm sure there's more, but that's the only one I've been keeping an eye on.

World of Goo is awesome. Found it a few days ago, finished it Christmas Eve, and loved every bit of it. Although, for me, the ending was important and really made me think. [quote]It was made by 3 guys in a basement somewhere. I'm shocked at the quality.[/quote] Actually, it was made by 2 guys in several coffee shops in San Francisco. (the third guy was only there for a small fraction of the development). http://2dboy.com/about.php I would've bought it through Impulse
