I would say Forces of light could use new grunts and Catapultasauri. They should have more slim fighters with swords as grunts, and actual catapults. Dinosaurs seem evil to me for osme reason :/ Forces of Darkness need different angels and maybe a more menacing giants? For Angels it could be a different flying creature like a Chimera, but obviously the creature needs to fly. <img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c73/OneWinged4ngel/paladin.gif" alt="" width="383" heig

I kinda wish there was more visual difference between the two sides. I mean towers/reinforcements.

Name of Demigod: Dark One Type of Demigod: Assassin General description: He is very mysterious Dark figure with a flowing robe and somewhat smoky appearence (His exact figure is obscure by smoke). He relies of trickery to turn his opponets ability agaisnt him. )Note that all my times are jsut numbers they will be adjusted properly for balance) Abilities: Ability 1. Subterfuge - For 10-25(Scale with rank) seconds the demigod appears mor

Hehehehehe I remember one game where I got so much gold on my Rook I was jsut slaughtering people at their crystal :)

There are general only items, and associated items which assassins might not take (Stuff with +4 minion damage for example). What is missing IMO are Assassin only items! I would like stuff that goes in slots that the general items go, but for assassins. These woudl be debuff items (Like AOE - health items tha towudl be say -300 health for 10 seconds, which woudl work not great vs DGs but wonderfully on minions!), buff items (Like maybe if u activate it it will give u bonus damage reduct

I find LB to have terrible pathing compared to Rook because of minions! Sometimes my LB is not as responsive if I have some minions also selected!

I find it Sedna does great if she can weave in and out of reinforcement wave. If I can catch her in the open she probably can't outheal the damage I can dish out with swift rook. But if I have to go through ton of reinforcements to deal damage to her, she can heal and deal damage back to me so I run or die :/ It's better not to follow any demigod into a swarm of mobs as a rule, but she has healing so it's even harder to down her on the run in that situation.

It was turning into a healthcare debate? Eitherway, you might have not been raging, but peopel that came after started raging I guess. Still if you don't like the game, I'm hoping Impulse Marketplace comes out soon so you can sell it, I would buy it discount lol. Man this marketplace thign will be great, and it will cause more sales for impulse cause if I can sell my old games for $$, I'll turn around and buy new games with it :)

Here is a problem you run into if you do not balance all DGs for 1v1... Dgs will have different playability in 3v3 then 5v5 brackets. Like some DGs may be too good in 3v3 but normal in 5v5. Some may stink in 3v3 but be acceptabnle in 5v5. There will still be DGs that stink in both compraed to other DGs! And like you said you don't even want to discuss stacking DGs! This can all be observed in WoW Arena right now. A format where they had 2v2, 3v3 and 5v5. You quickly

I too had quite a few crashes in demo as well. I can't play Erebus(application jsut closes halfway through the game), nor can I host MP match(Game crashes right after launch). I have specs slightly better than the minimum :/

Lugh I found that even stacking Speed items on Rook, once you are bitten you cannot escape from Erebus! Bite lowers speed :/ Usually I speed away before he bite me lol.

Well to me the idea of it is to kill his minions, if you manage to nail this slippery fellow all the more power to you lol :)

To know how to balance a game you must know what was teh development thinking behind all the mechanics. Then you take what they wanted to achieve and compare it to what you believe was achieved and then you can know if Balancing is waranted. For example, I know I know I shouldn't, but I'll use WoW as example. In WoW certain classes WTF own other classes. But Blizzard has said time and time again that they don't care about some classes instant gibbing the other class, and that's how it was des

Oh wow good move with the marketplace! I look forward to seeing this!

XP Lead is not major on itself. But if you are more experienced player and you can kill the opponent, you probably know how to level better than him (read more efficiently). So the gap will grow. The dying is not really the cause of the gap, but more of a symptom. There are strategies to catch up if your team is behind on XP, like not getting priests before the other team. Yes they have more grunts but that means more XP per wave for your side if you are killing the grunts!

I noted from playing the Demo that poor Rook has really hard time with Erebus. I mean it's impossible to kill the bastard. This may not be true of other Demigods, or it may be true, but I play Rook mainly. One thing that got me thinking is that Hammer Slam should be rather effective vs him, because his DPS is just insane with ton of little minions about (and I'm hoping this would clear them). But I never go Hammer slam, so I have not tried it. My non-hammer-slam build is just so good against

I play the demo, I lvoe the potion drops, it makes sense to me. Otehrwise I would be bussing back and forth to the base all the frikin time. I would say I would end up probably spending most of my kill money on teleprot scrolls, or I would lose all the time advantage I got killing someone. Also the healing demigods would be imba.

Frogboy, 2 of your thumbnails are identical, but when I click on one I get a different graphic. Might want ot ammend that.

What about some sort of diminishign returns on kills. The first time you kill guy u get 100% of the bounty, but if you kill him again within 5 minutes you get 50%. After 5 minutes it goes up 10% per minute or something, so at 6 minutes after first kill you get 60%, at 7-70%.If the person gets a kill however, they go back to 100%. It would give incentive for the side getting pwned to take some risks as well. Because their reward would be 100%, while dyign woudl only give the opponent 5

I withhold my critique till I had a chance to sample and done a bit more research. But from astethic point of view, it frikin rules thusfar. I love the clothmap, but I understand there will be different way of viewing the game, which will be good too.

Well to be honest I don't play rook like most play rook actually. Speed is not my problem at all. I stack speed early on, I don't need HP cause I just hide behind my light towers most of the time. I really shine once I get some more gear mid game where I get enough speed to chase people down. Even faster people will die because I got my independent ranged weapons on my shoulders and of course boulder roll :O <a href="http://s196.photobucket.com/albums/aa211/astax2/?action=view&current=ownage

Damn Im crushed! I play the demo and I love playing Rook. Even though I run into trouble vs Erebus because he is almost unkillable :/

Cool. ANy future plans for some engine optimization? I want to buy it but I fear it won't run smoothly on my machine. Base don how demo runs.

oh well my rush for the mail box was premature!
