I think its a pretty fair trade off. 1% might be a bit low, but I don't thinkt he life steal is nice enough that in a busy game, it can be about as good as the life bonus items. Whats more, you don't have to waste time not-dealing damage to enemies. Maybe its not very good for general characters, but some of the heavy hitting assassins really profit from even a little life steal.
[quote who="DeadMG" reply="13" id="1985858"]We don't have two sides. It's an entirely artificial construct. Light vs Dark is just there like Team A and Team B.[/quote] but we do have two sides. Like that is the whole story around which the game is based.
I want music. If there is music worth having, I want it! Maybe include a soundtrack? (call me greedy, but I like things that I will use, and I would listen a bonus songmost likely if it were given.)
[quote]And please think about people who got an AZERTY keyboard[/quote] yeah, and what about people like me with dvorak keyboards. I mean, it is an MLA US standard! I do I think the camura rotate options are very minimilistic and could be improved.
I think having more factions would make more sense anyway. I mean as binary as our elections are (USA), there isn't only 2 parties. So while most of the demigod fights might only have 2 sides, there should be some that have 3rd or forth factions for sure. You know, the OTHER demigods that want to be the winning vote in the pantheon. Or even a faction of demigods that want to promote the deadlock between light and dark by not letting either get into wh
I agree with the portals
support added. I know you guys know the lack of cover for the password and lack of tab is a pain, but seriously. Why not have a auto-login feature. I know some games don't have it, and it blows my mind. Like why not? why do I even have to type my password everytime?
I found them to be very useful as defensive weapons but terrible as offensive weapons. This is especially true since they will chain to your pre-defined light towers and basically work as range extenders. So they become really powerful early game.

I have been thinking about it, and somebody suggested more than just 'light' and 'dark', what about multiple teams? I don't even mean they all would fight each other (because that might make balance issues) but like perhaps two different dark citidels on teams that are technically different teams, but still on the same side? Alternativily, you could bring in a 3rd faction that is the neutral party, similar to the creeps in DotA. A group of Demigods that just

These are just the test maps so far. I'm excited to see the more complex maps that will come with the main release. I really hope they mix up the landscape even more.
I agre with the creeps idea. That was kinda fun in DotA. However, they may just not have that part implemented yet (I imagine it to be a low prioty and it would certainly make the AI more complex)
[quote]I do dislike the "Light" and "Dark" names though, it's too simple. Surely there's something complex and interesting from the single player campaign? Like demigods that fight for the Allfather, and ones who rebelled? (I know this isn't true, I'm just saying that you should choose something less cliched than Light vs Dark)[/quote] Well, I'm going to have to disagree there. I mean the whole 'light' and 'dark' thing is the whole point. It shouldn't be any mo
[quote]I like the idea of having two sides that are unique, but that would be the other option.[/quote] Well, Instead of minotaurs, the light side could have golems instead of archers, the dark side could have salamanders (or some sort of spitting lizardman) instead of priests, the dark side could have hierophants Instead of catapultasaurus, the light side could have strange monkey things that spin their arms around to throw boulders instead of
I say this because I really don't feel any different playing one side vs. the other. When both sides look like creepy saurus catipult creatures and fat men on walking chairs, I feel like I'm evil no matter which side I play. However if the light side could get different 'lighter' models, even if their stats were exactly the same it would make it really feel like right vs. dark, rather than just two random groups of the exact same people. It was p
I disagree. I feel it is balanced out oak's lack of other killing moves. I mean I guess he isn't an assassin, but I Feel like he still gets a short of the stick otherwise. Once he goes into it all you have to do is keep him from killing you for a few seconds,. and you know then he will be dead. Maybe I've just played too much dawn of war where the necron lord does that, except he doesn't die as part of the process.
I am not sure if this counts as 'hangs' or as 'interface' because its an interface issue that causes it to hang. The bug happened when a desync message appeared while I (as rook) was placing a tower of light. The result is that my cursor was fixed as the placing-tower cursor and I could not actually move it to click 'ok' and it would not let me close the desync window via pressing enter or something similar (another thing that should be fixed.)
a game doesn't have balanced to be fun. It just won't be fun for long.
Hey, better buggy than nothing. I guess its a good stress test both from users and weather ^_^
[quote]the love of my life[/quote][quote]I meant to give. 'Tis better to give than receive.[/quote][quote]very true. But receivings fun too[/quote] woah... what are we talking about here O.o; I mean, I all love demigod, but not that much! besides, demigod can only give, not recieve.
The above being said, I do hope that, to meet the standards placed by DOTA, we get many more characters in expansion packs. Like more than 2 per expension (unless the expanions do something else really cool) I also am cursed at f or being a noob. Which is why demigod excites me . I like DotA, but I find it frustrating because I suck at it.
See, what excites me is originally* they had 3 betas. We are now into what would be beta 3 I think. That means when they DO release it, we will be getting the whole 9 yards. no more waiting until release (i hope)
I'm about to eat my own legs in anticipation. But to be the 1 supporter of the wait, I am glad it didn't come out this week. Because if it did my finals would not.
because giving people stuff costs money and most companies feel that annoying DRM will keep away pirates rather than constant support.
