Frogboy... I've used it before, but I still don't see it to be extreamly helpful. OK, I can chat in a general lobby... But lets just make a example: Say I'm in a game and I have the irc window up. And lets just say that I'm in a clan (I hope this game will have support for clans btw) And lets just say that during a heated battle another clan member logs on and see me in the chat lobby... Now here are my questions: Will he know I am in a ga
WhopperJr
Don't tell me that the irc window is the best they can do. Is there a way to make a friends list? Make private chat rooms? See who is online, even if they are in other rooms? I'm telling you it's not cutting it. How many people can be in the chat room before it becomes a stream of unconnected conversations? Yes it is good for chatting about the Beta, but when the game goes live with hundreds of people online, tell me how it is useful... please enlight
So... what we have for chat is final? big misstake
See the issues!
I really don't understand. Do all of you want this game to be successful? Do you exspect the average joe to chat with other players online with irc? Like myself, the game, no matter how good it is, it will be piontless to play if no one plays online. End of Story. If the average person has to know irc to play the game, then there is a problem. Chating, adding friends, creating clan rooms, whatever... should be transparent to the user. No is goin
I saw that post... but it looks like to me that it will open a shell chat window like the crap irc that we have now... Or even worse it will min your game and take you to Impulse. Everything should be ingame.
I've responded to another post about not having a solid way to message friends online. Check out the Pospone Release thread. If the game gets released like this... no one will stay very long.
Yeah... there should be limitations for sure... I just cant stand people on my team leaving me to get the loss. Maybe if the person who surrenders get's the loss and those who are left high and dry don't. There just has to be harsh treatment to those who don't see the game to the end. And if you are a consistant DC'er then your account can be reported and banned from ruining everyones exsperience. We are talking about asending to a god? Right?
Right now, with the game in the current state, is not something that will keep people active online. One being that there is no way to open a chat window, add friends, clan members groups, see who is online and who arn't. Invite friends in a game... the list goes on and on. And sorry irc chat in the lobby just doesn't cut it. I feel like I'm playing a single player game online, very little has been implimented to create a community. Forget the patch
It seems to me that there should be one more layer. Those were some examples. Plus in late game wouldn't like to see a massive creature of some sort to drop from the heavens to create a push in your favor?
As far as I am concerned, I think all stats should show. There should be a surrender vote... and if no one votes to surrender and you quit it should be noted in your stats as "dishonerable surrender" or something... If your computer dissconnects then you shoud have a stat on DC. Regular gamers like myself will know that not everyone will have a perfect record and will allow a couple of DC's to pass, but if you have a third of your games resulting in DC
The many time that I've played this game I found it to be pretty fun but there are a couple of things that I think would make the game a little bit interesting. 1. I feel like you should have to control your demigods stances. Meaning Defend, neutral, and Attack mode. Defence would give you a bonus on armor, ect. 2. I think you also need one more layer. Yes you have upgrading your fort and yes you can power up your Demigod... But what if there were somet
One thing that kills me in any RTS are the people who either leave the game or Dissconnect. There has to be a stat for those who constantly dissconnect to protect their records... That way when playing competively you can KICK those who will hurt the team. Also, there need to be better ways of communicating in the game; i.e. leaving the chat window up all the time, placing beacons, maybe do a deal with Skype to have voice chat. Otherwise, people will just not get into
