could u add another info tag in the lobby for a clan tag or somethng. this way those who want to create pre arranged matches can make sure they're facing a team all on the same team/clan. this could also be used for those looking for friendly pub games and would help to boost clan recuitment. a simple box by (or in) the name thats say 5 characters. then when ur in gam the names would come up like: Lig

i have a questions for any modders out there: currently i've been fooling around with the lua script and were wondering if there was a way to test stuff i've done. every time i make even the smallest change to anything in the zip file i just causes my game to crash on start up. i'm very new lua and scripting and trying to learn as fast as i can so whe the SDK comes out i'm fully prepared. any tips or good books i should be looking into?

[quote]There won't be a map editor or Demigod editor, which basically means we won't see new map modes made by players.[/quote] i agree with ur first part however they are opening up modding, it's just not going to be in a Editor for Dummies program like WC3 Editor. basicly means that those who will be able to make new maps and new demigods are going to have a lot of experiance under their belts and probably won't put out crap, buggy mods (which is good). the only draw bac

i agree that $9 is a fair price for having 2 Demigods as DLC, however IMO maps, items, and all other balance and content should be free. then to sort of split it up into versions: X.00 would be new demigods 0.X0 would be new maps, features, items etc 0.0X would be balance/bug fixes this way new demigods would count almost like an expansion pack allowing those who didn't buy the DLC to still play againt each other.

agreed, every time i come on the forums i expect the dev's to jump out form what ever rock they've been hiding under with a grin on their faces and content to be uploaded. however that isn't the point at all of my post. there is a big difference between a game doing bad and fail which i think needs clearing up. i think the game will do bad without proper a developer to consumer relationship <st

Community on the Edge in Demigod Demigod Forums

Many many post on the forums are currently sinking into depression. Cries that the developers have abandoned us.. that frogboy don't care.. or that demigods have been back shelved for newer projects. These are specifically coming from the lack of feedback of any sort coming from SD or GPG. lack of content combined with unfixed bugs and no ETA for any new patches has really stunted the communities growth. Along with other MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) games c

Reply to New Gameplay Element: Line of Sight in Demigod Ideas Demigod Forums

i remember reading that back in early development and Beta of the game they were debating between using "line of sight" or "fog of war". what ever the reason they chose "fog of war" and thus objects can't block you view withi that area. because of the way they made the engine it is actualy impossible to change it to "line of sight" without completely rebuilding the engine. on that note thou i did try my hand at getting around this draw back with an idea for

Reply to How is GPG designing Demigods? in Demigod Ideas Demigod Forums

[quote]but in my experience, game developers very rarely (if ever) implement player ideas.[/quote] see, this is what i'm afraid of. in any other game or genre this would be perfectly acceptable and having and idea section in that sort of game is almost useless. HOWEVER, this is RPG/RTS tower pushing map bases (on many levels) on DotA, and the main reason that DotA is so popular is because of content... its not clan support... or rage quitting...

How is GPG designing Demigods? in Demigod Ideas Demigod Forums

Reason why this is in the Idea Section is because i don't want to know the nit and grit of the design process but what i would like is if GPG is actually taking our ideas from this section and tweaking them into reality or if they have their own super team of designers doing their own ideas? if it is that latter (and i hope it is not) then i think its probably a good idea to let us know rather than have many talented people waste their time and energy on something pointless. how
