[quote who="wulagas-wulagaski" reply="7" id="2223981"]it was dead from the start. demigod is just a filler till Q4 2009. more than a month and they r still fixing net code. guess how much time will it take to fix pathfinding , skill activation, balance - issues. i guess ~ 2-3 months. even die hard fans will say "fuck it" by that time.[/quote]Most games take a year + to balance and get rid of all the bugs. SC:BW is 10 years old and still getting bug fixes.

Don't listen to anyone who says flags are better then farming for exp. Capping a flag gives the same exp as 3 minataurs, so a single wave is worth like 2 flag caps. :/ Secondly, if your TB or Reg, just harass and don't fight enemy DG. This means with Reg try to get pot shots off at the enemy (get one or 2 shots off and run). With TB just spam them with fireballs (or ice mode normals) and run if they try to chase you. Also, you can be quite a distance away from the creeps and s
[quote who="ganKing" reply="8" id="2206921"]HoL needs a nerf, you shouldn't be buying the same item in 90% of your games if you can afford it. Once everyone has caught on and everyone has it in every game it's going to seem more nerf-worthy.[/quote]I buy Vlemish and Plenor in 90% of my games. Your logic is flawed.
[quote who="Windburn" reply="17" id="2204941"] Having said that, there really wasn't a need to distinguish a group of people, unless for some reason the OP is only having these problems with Americans (which I can't imagine is true).[/quote]Actually, it is only Americans (or at least ppl living in the US). I only join Aussie/NZ and US games. I don't join EU games, because imo 400+ ping is just too much. Of course, 0-350 is identical as far as the game is concerned. </
You guys all need to work an reading comprehension. See, if the title had been "All Americans are ignorant" instead of "To all the ignorant Americans", yes, I'd certainly call it prejudice and insulting. It isn't though. [quote who="Sly_Squash" reply="7" id="2204707"]Look dude, with how hard it is to get a good game going, I think it makes sense to kick high pingers.

[quote who="G4N35H" reply="12" id="2204234"]It might also be wise to consider that it is the host's lobby. You kinda just have to go with what they say until the game starts, and when that's asking too much you can find another game.[/quote]I wouldn't mind so much if they informed in the game's title "US West ONLY" or "3v3
Well, the game running slowly is someone playing without a powerful enough PC.
Stop kicking me. Seriously. 250 ping is NOT too high. The fact I live in Australia is not going to lag the game. See, this game uses magical thing called netlag. It means that anyone below 350 is, is going to well have 350 latency. This means 0-350 ping is going to give identical performance. The guy with 50 ping is going to be just as laggy as my 300 ping (and laggier if his comp or connection sucks). So, guys, stop kicking me. It just makes it impossible for me to get
Spit isn't the only way to play UB. Everyone seems to think it is, so I decided to find a build to prove that wrong. And I did. The build isn't anywhere near as good as spit against enemy DGs, but it is 10x better against towers. By level 10-15 (depends on gold) you'll be able to take out several towers in a row, solo. What's the build? It's a mix of +hps, +hp and life leech. Add in beastial wrath and you get 450+ dps at about level 10, as well as 20% life leech once you
""ahhhhahahahhaa...woooohahahahaha....AHHHAHAHAHA" I think that wins hands down. Just so funny when Torchbearer starts laughing manically in the middle of a game. xD
Don't know. 810 Most likely. Don't know.
Heh, wait till peak hour (around midnight GMT I think). Usually there's 20+ games in the custom games bit easy.
Focus fire the Oak (he's going to be doing the most damage if he's competent). Once he's dead (which will happen FAST with properly spec'd reg/QoT/reg) you then kill the Sednas, focus firing them as well. Also, you're biggest problem was probably the AI. Having an AI on your team usually means the other team gets 1000 gold for free every minute. :/
Yeh, there sooo imba... >.> You can get 3088dps after crits (with Reg), but this costs 96,300 gold, so if you actually manage to pull it off, the game was over ages ago. Ashkandor + Mageslayer costs 26000 gold, so you fed him. Simple as that. If you didn't feed, I don't see any reason you shouldn't have BOTH had Bulwarks. A level 20TB with this basically has 10,000ehp (ehp = what matters against normal attacks). Also, TB o
Ok, I was gonna be lulzy, but instead a real post. I see 2 ways, depending on build. MotB works regardless of build. If you went a DPS build, you NEED to be able to outrun him (including maim). Unfortunately this is impossible without MotB, Anklets (only if he didn't get them), or Wyrmskin Handgaurds procing. Once he can't outrun you, it's simply a matter of out-dps'ing him. Other option is to hit him a with a mine field then add some d
[quote quoting="post"] How exactly is that calculated? Why me with 5W 0L and 700 favor points have less than one with 0W 3L ??? [/quote]Gonna have to post links mate. Also, it's an Elo rating system. This means it's impossible for someone 5-0 to have a lower score then someone 0-3, so I must assuming you're lying or simply got the wrong data. That, or the system is broken.
Yes, pentitence can interupt.
1. Don't die. 2. Don't die. 3. If it didn't work the first time, it's probably not gonna work the second, third, fourth and fifth times. 4. Don't die.
Ok, Dominate is really bugging me. The problem is it's got slippery slope stuck in it. Lets suppose a 3v3 situation. Team A vs Team B, on Cataract. Team A is doing well at the start, gets a few kills. These kills lets them get map control. They don't get any more kills though. Now, fast forward to the score is 9000-5000 (10,000 to win). Someone Team B manages a comeback, takes the middle 3 flags... Except, they're going to lose anyway, because of the 4000 point lead the other te
[quote who="Lyzra" reply="16" id="2176421"] I suppose a good question is why those people quit, is the gamedesign such that it dosnt really harbour enough intrest for those not steamrolling other side to play it or what. If you crack that puzzle the quitting for sure would be dimished.[/quote]The reason people quit is because games like Demigod half the time have decided the winner by level 10. There's no reason to hang around for another 10-30 minutes, waiting for the game to end, when
Have you ever tried stunning someone already stunned? A little "immune" pops up.
[quote quoting="post"] Unclean Beast: Ooze - Weak compared to Post Mortem. Needs to not cost hp, have increased damage, a huge atk speed reduction, or a new effect. [/quote]Firstly, Ooze already has a ASR (attack speed reduction). It's 40% at level 4, which is HUGE. Secondly, Ooze does 140dps, that ignores armour, to everything nearby (at level 4). Spit does slightly more then 150dps at level 4. And Post Mortem is completely u
Name of Demigod: Dreamer (or TBD) Type of DG: Support Assassin General Description: A master of the dream realm. Specalises in messing with peoples heads. She wears long hooded robes. Abilities: Ability 1. Dream state. Enters the dream realm, becoming immune to attacks (and invisible). 50mps drain. Gains 15% more speed while in this state
Sedna + Fire TB is great, because Sedna can provide that 17% cooldown reduction aura + heals, while TB dishes out the damage. No to mention fire TB lacks an interupt, which pounce provides.
[quote who="chaosbrynn" reply="7" id="2172973"]Just to clarify, since some wrong information was presented: Capturing flags is the BEST way to gain experience at levels 1-4. Each capped flag is around the equivalent of 2 or 3 waves of dead creeps. [/quote]No, it's actually not. A minotaur gives 33 exp, while capping a flag gives around 100 exp. That means a single creep wave is worth more then 2 flag captures.
