[quote who="NoW^StiL ReY" reply="16" id="2288081"]This game crashes or dc's one in every like ten games so a 91 win streak is still pretty lucky.[/quote] I find the people that crash tend to crash often and the people that don't never crash. I've played 50 games post patch and haven't crashed, yet when I play with two of my friends I can count on them crashing maybe every 1 in 5 games. So for him to never crash isn't too much of a surprise. And

Remind me again why you are playing a multiplayer game against AI?

When you quit a game it automatically sends a concede notification for your player so that if the remaining players want to concede they can choose concede to end the game and your AI won't hold it up. Though I believe it shouldn't give you 40 favor if you leave. So for 1, you were just seeing someone leave the game, not press concede. Don't know about 2.

I've got a thread here about it - no response yet though. http://forums.demigodthegame.com/358037

[quote who="regabond" reply="15" id="2287220"]umm whats so hard? Premade != a good team. Me and 1 friend has specifically hunted out some random larger premade teams and have defeated them fairly easily. I have even been in completely PUG games vs a full 4v4 premade and come out victorious. A better thing to add to the game title is what level of players are allowed in. If 4 friends buy them game and this is their first online game, should they put "4v4 Premade" just so they can ge

Let's all write essays instead of game names so everyone knows exactly what to expect at all times. The next game I host will be: "3v3 Not a premade, US, Cataract, I'm playing regulus (mines build), no doubles on the same team please, and someone on my team please get a capture lock to lock the middle flag, and someone else buy tower regen"

I honestly feel that fire TB does not scale well into late game when everyone is decently stacked with HP. Who cares about a 1K fireball when you have 6k life? The vast majority of good TB's I've seen are ice builds which turn TB into more of a support character, but it really helps the team out in big fights.

[quote who="Shadow_Avenger" reply="2" id="2284686"]I've noticed this too. I see pings of under 200 with decent sims but still get lag.[/quote] Yep, seeing it a ton lately. I usually never see lags with 4v4 but recently (post 1.1 perhaps?) theres been a lot of stutter lag despite everyone having 5+ sim and under 200 ping. 5v5's for me went from playable ~50% of the time to mostly unplayable now.

I acknowledge your point Shadow, though I don't see how this renders stats useless. In a team game like Demigod, the win doesn't solely depend on which individual player is better than another in a 1v1 setting. Players A, B, C can each independently be better than D, E, F, but if DEF work together better and plan out their strategy in the game then they can surely overcome individual skill. DEF would get the win, be higher ranked, and in my opinion the rankings would

[quote who="Shadow_Avenger" reply="5" id="2284556"] I don't think using voice is cheating, but I do think that it gives no basis for people who use it a cause to say that they are better players. [/quote] I've got to disagree here. Voice absolutely gives a basis for people who use it to say they are better players. All things being equal, the team that communicates is better than the team that doesn't. The team that communicates more efficiently is better

They've posted that this is a known issue earlier today. Basically if the host disconnects in some circumstances everyone gets a loss but the host. This happened to me last night. I was hosting a game when my game crashed and it gave me the win and everybody else a loss, including my friends I was playing with (who were none too pleased since we were dominating).

I see a lot of discrepancies on my achievement page and was wondering if this was a known issue that it wasn't saving right. http://pantheon.demigodthegame.com/achievements/player/43213/ Things to note: Regulus the Butcher Kill 50 Demigods. I've certainly killed waaaaay more than 50 demigods yet it shows only 8%. Regulus the Master

[quote who="Melric" reply="14" id="2284103"] And another tip, if you want PUG players to comeback for future games, kick people with bad win rates from the lobby so that the PUG at least has a chance. Just looking over your last 20 games, you have several PUG players that have 20% win rates against you. One bad player ruins the game for everyone else. When I host premade games, I make a point of checking the records of the opposition out and punting obviously bad

[quote who="DeadMG" reply="24" id="2283929"]Sylis, if you want to save any face, explain the stats he shows in the OP. How can you be recorded with three wins where everyone else in the game lost? Smells like an exploit to me, and that picture shows absolutely nothing, and can show nothing.[/quote] DeadMG, everything has been explained. Sylis does NOT exploit this stupid bug. Sylis frequently hosts games. The vast majority of the time it works fine but someti

I simply don't get the hatred for premades. It isn't like a premade is a secret organization of elite gamers bent on ruining the game for beginners. I didn't know anyone when I first got Demigod. I played a few games, added a few of the players to my friends list from the first few games and then kept playing with those people since its more fun to play with friends. It really is THAT easy to make friends and premades. Step 1: Play a game

You guys are missing the point of the original question. Let me rephrase it to make it clearer so hopefully we can have some appropriate feedback. There are two elements in play: 1) If you leave a game before X minutes, the game will not count as a win/loss for you though will be recorded as a win/loss for those who stayed and finished (or quit after the X minute mark). 2) If the game ENDS (doesn't matter if there are leavers, conceders, citadel destroyed, anythi

[quote who="Sly_Squash" reply="11" id="2280241"]When the enemy has low hp but is getting away swarm+bite is great for the finishing blow. [/quote] You're crazy Sly. You always yell "Snipe snipe snipe!" and make me finish them off.

[quote who="Sly_Squash" reply="18" id="2278547"]I've played erebus every game for the last hundreds of games and feel the nerf was justified and that I am still a fighting force. [/quote] It's true! Sly is a force.

I can see why they did this but I really really really really really prefer the old way better. Now when the chat pops up it blocks a portion of the action. If I had the option have having more trouble seeing the action or more trouble seeing the chat, I would choose the latter every time. Honestly I think a good compromise would be to have an option to set the level of transparency of the chatbox so if you set it to 50% you could see mostly through it to whats happening

This really shouldn't bother you at all. I'm actually grateful that teams can turn a game around with planning/strategy. If you want to just play a deathmatch you should play with the Slaughter game type. I commend the other team on changing strategies to grab flags and get war rank 10 before you so they could win via creep pushes, since they were clearly getting beat on just straight up fights. You almost lost because your strategy was to just focus on kills while t

[quote who="_Shadow" reply="2" id="2270179"] Poul If you want to have all custom game wins, just host all your custom games, and if you are losing, quit before end ! Game will not count at all, so you won't get disconnect or lose, because you were host This doesn't work anymore. I know of at least two times where it DID happen to me (yes, in my favor), but it hasn't worked like that since they fixed the stats reporting a few weeks ago. razattack1337 is the only pe

Agree. This came up constantly yesterday when I was playing 5v5. -1 sim speeds but great pings.

Play a single player game once for EACH demigod. It doesn't matter if you only plan on being a few of them, you have to know what you are up against.

Why does it matter if retail sales are low if digital sales are so great? A sale is a sale, right?

[quote who="T-Man" reply="2" id="2257397"]I should also point out that we are working towards either replacing this player with an AI Player. After we have that code in then we will work towards replacing that player with a human player. This will take work from both GPG and Stardock so we are waiting until we have all the pieces put in.[/quote] Thanks T-Man. Good to know it isn't intended and is being worked on.
