I'm going to agree with Jara. In a game 100% skill based it may be easier to see if a class is imbalanced (Ala FPS) but in a game with levels, skills, stats and equips it can be harder to see.

The 8 maps together total ~700 megabytes so one map would take a long time to download.
No, I'm all for digital distribution and with Blizzards new "Enter your CD key with your blizzard accoutn and download games whenever you want" deal it makes it all the more easy. See the main difference with DotA characters and Demigod characters is DotA are 100% thought work (Stats, skills, balance stuff, what model I use) and programming.

If they want to easily increase the longevity of this game they ought to make a map maker.

Eenie meenie miney mo?

Thank gamestop.
[quote who="liq3" reply="10" id="2142486"] Quoting Basiliscus, reply 4yea, give it a week or so. Practice with single, experiment with different demigods and builds. EVERY multiplayer based game that I have played in recent memory has had significant server problems at launch.Left 4 Dead was is the best MP launch I've experienced (tho Demigod is my 3rd so...). Biggest problem was it could take 5+ minutes to find a server, and that's assuming you join a lobby and not a ga
