would it be better if it had limited uses?

[quote who="DalzK" reply="6" id="2043446"]Trust me quoting games in real life always gets the girls [/quote] Its true

but I like the sniper guy's current voice. [e digicons]:pout:[/e] it makes him sound super cheesy and fun to mimic.... the 2nd best voice is oak. I disagree a little on the minions. I like having huge swarms of minions when I play generals, though I understand why you might want to have a few strong minions rather than a swarm of weak ones. If only there was a good way to let us both have our way.

(you know, he isn't any faster when he has his wings... but that is a discussion for a different time) One of my favorite parts of select RTS games is quoting the characters. Maybe I'm a freak, but I like to quote units in RTS titles all the time, even wher its just the normal responce "This Gun's heavy" and "Least I have Job" are good examples from Red Alert 2. Are their any quotes in Demigod that other people are probebly going to say like a demigod charact

I'm finding when I try to play Demigod on my Win 7, in addition to the normal (fixed) crash I get another psudo crash. I say psudo because it just randomly closes Demigod. I don't get a "this has stopped working" or anything like that. And it happens AFTER the game has started, even when effectively a single player game (all bots, I find that is normally very stable). <span style="white-sp

Now that windows 7 has a slideshow feature that cycles through wallpaper, my demand more GOOD PC wallpaper has increased 100 fold (because now, my computer goes through them on its own). I 2nd this, in fact.... if we get more than the 1 map we currently have in the next beta, then some fan wallpapers might be in order.

right now DRM is preventing me from watching my Blu-Ray movies. I just got a Blu Ray player for my PC and I bought some Blu-ray movies to celebrate. Now I'm home with this awesome HD movies... and they don't work! I have the codecs used by Blu ray Movies, but apparently I need to either use Power DVD (which keeps telling me I need to update and/or crashes) or to use pirating software to rip the Blu ray out of its BD DRM.

Well, if you need to hire people for afformentioned games team. Let us know

What do you call the effect on the camura when you zoom in all the way? Where it distorts the image into a strange angle lens or something. It is really neat and I never noticed it before. Does it happen on all maps? Right now I can't rotate the camura up so I can't really view much of the battlefield with that on, is there a way to do that?

sign me up. I'm down for crash testing the tournement feature.

speaking of amusement. I was amused that I somehow clicked on the torch bearer in the achievements/awards screen... but there isn't a torch bearer to click on. I counter your dispatched teams for my own.... team BEAR CAVARLY (curtiously of the elemental forum) [e digicons]^_^[/e] [e digicons]*_*[/e] [e digicons]*_*[/e] [e digicons]*_*[/e] [e digicons]:digichet:[/e] [e digicons]*_*[/e] [e digicons]*_*[/e] [e digicons]*_*[/e] [e digicon

I strongly disagree. In Demigod, my minions (especially the yetis) can break off from my general all the time to take out a tower. I run my general back to heal up, and they often are still alive by the time I get back. (unless there is an enemy general or AoE assassin)

This is for those who are not already trolling the elemental forum, but still frequent the stardock forums enough to catch the general off-topic page. There is a contest being hosted by some crazy fanboy that has real prizes being awarded. He's paying for shipping too. All the prizes are shirts, and there is only 5 of them with limited size availability, but that is still pretty awesome I think. here is a link <a href="https

Man I was hoping for some REAL slang terms. Like "you been dog'd" meaning that the unclean beast blew up on you. I gues "touchy" works for the touch bearer. sniped > hit by the sniper of course Rocked > hit by the rook's ball (i.e. stunned) tower'd > hit by a tower beam and killed [he's] oak'n > [he] has gone invincable right before death. [I] am being oak'd > [I] am being attacked by oak ri

I'm under the impression that there is going to be a single-player campaign. I do hope it is co-op accessable (everybody one 1 side) Tower defense missions are almost a must, even with multiple sides.

so what help can we do to better help you (SD) fix some of these network issues in time for the thursday Beta 3?

[quote]Betas are not meant to be fun, they are meant to -test- and ensure a quality product. Seems a few too many open betas have warped the view on why beta testing exists. Fun is a byproduct of quality. The D2 Open beta was act 1 & warriors, not exactly fun or remotely the powerhouse it came to be.[/quote] yeah, I guess its because the demigod beta IS fun, just not as fun as it could be. So people forget that it isn't the finished game. As I said, I was expecting a h

I think there should be several options for the highlights over the characters. You should be able to change the brightness or opacity of the highlights, you should also have several color options. You should also be able to play with color options. right now all good guys are green, all bad guys are red. You should have bad guys be a certain color, and then maybe players be a different color as well. You may want all players to be colo

I definatly agree about the login screen. I forgave it last update since it was still early beta 2 (internet test) but now its late beta 2 almost beta 3, that isa really annoying login screen to deal with. I wanted to add I really like the UI highlights for the characters behind things

Ok, I am talking about the icon at the bottom of the screen that shows the player's demigod, just to be sure. To explain the situation I first need a story: I really like the new highlights that show the charecter you are selecting and targeting, it really helps especially with generals as it helps pick out your guys from the enemy's of the same time. Now there is also a healing general with big units that are easy to watch, so I've been trying her out. I find I'm us

Man, for the record this past discussion is really awesome to read. Especially Frogboy's retorts (I like the part where he goes and looks up another stupid post by the same user and points out that there is some logic flaw there). Anyway, just to voice my side. I find that for a Beta, Demigod is REALLY fun. Like, I wasn't expecting to enjoy Demigod's Beta 2 at all really, I was expecting it to be super buggy (more than it is anyway) and feel incomplete. H

I'd like to imagine this forum wouldn't flame you just for asking. I'm not really sure what to say about the servers. Right now (as its in beta testing) the population of online play is much lower than say, Battle.net for Warcraft 3. However once the game comes out I'm sure you'll be able to find plenty of UK servers. Though I suspect that also means you will find plenty of french servers (sorry french people, but its true)&

[quote]I suspect it will be possible, but modelling and animating a new character is a process which requires a lot of time and skill[/quote] Well I've seen some mods that prove that the 2nd thing isn't always required, but time and detication certainly it is. It makes me think of the movie "grandma's boy" where a guy models, animates, programs, and play-tests an Xbox game all by himself, with a "good collision" engine and fantastic particle effects. Not

did you try uninstalling and reinstalling? I had an issue on the starting match loading screen there when beta 2 1st started, and that fixed it for me. I couldn't repeat the issue, so I left it alone.

my feedback is just make it look pretty. It doesn't really need fancy pictures per sey. But just maybe a good boarder and a easy gradient on the edges or something that is easy to still read the text over. Whenever I get a manual that seems nice but is all black and while, I feel cheated. Like, out of everything involved in making a game why skip out on presentation by making it have a lame manual right? Ink shouldn't cost t
