Finding ways to keep retail sales up. Sales are good now but let’s be real here, updates are fueled by new sales. If you guys have ideas on what it would take to get more of your friends to buy copies at retail and on Impulse let us know. Frogboy, Three thoughts on the matter: 1. Replays! Replays! Replays! This is a feature that will really shine in reviews, and will really create some bonus points on forums. Replays that work will *

Not at all, I understand there is a difference. The issue is that it seems like most of the community has conflated the two. If you quit a game, you are often labelled a "rage quitter", regardless of the reason you quit. The predominant "emotion" in the forum seems to be that quit=ragequit, regardless of reason. My feeling is that the vast majority of quitters are not actually rage quitting, but are conceeding. It's very, very rare that I see a tr

It has been acknowledge as an explot/bug by the Devs. The Generals *are not* balanced around 24 normal minions, that are balanced around 6. Particularly with Sedna, with her aura-based minion buffs, 8 priests is simply over the top. She has a priest healing buff, attack speed buff, and +24 hps minion buff, which combines well with the +4 hps crusader plate buff. No melee DG can deal with this; and few DGs have enough AoE to kill all those ra

Now, not to start a Flamewar, but Get Over It. While I do agree that people often drop games before they are lost, you are being absolutely ridiculous if you insist that players remain in the game to the bitter end. Have you seen pro Starcraft games? Watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qr2Mr-JqHLM from 4:50-5:10 GG-> Quit before *any* damage is done to their base! For that matter, have you seen any decent chess

Meh, I've had more than my fair share of comebacks (against me :) ) after dominating a team in the mid/early game. Played game last friday. Played as a hammer-slam rook. Something like 18 kills, got Ash, was totally unstoppable. Had their citadel down to 4k hp at one point. I probably only had 1 death. They pushed us back some (started playing in a more concerted fashion, while our team was trying to push on the side f

Early game, however, there is nothing (besides another rook) at level 1 that can take down two Rook towers. The best way to play Rook, in my opinion, is to start with tower spam until level 7 and then switch over to boulderroll/hamerslam. This stun/smash tactic is more viable later in the game when longer stuns become available and you don't have to time it as perfectly. That way the Rook plays all of his strengths at each stage of the game.

I've been trying a similar Erebus setup lately, and I really think it is a good way to go. At level 13, with 10 nightwalkers in this build, you should be tearing towers down like nobodies business. Bat swarm/bite are still potent tools, and the potent blood upgrades are worthless past one. Two thumbs up :)

Frogboy, Is Comcast's 12/2 Mbps tier insufficient? I'm guessing so. How about their 22/5 Mbps? wwwolf

[quote who="Kitkun" reply="22" id="2203592"]I'd like to see somethin other than a tower Rook sometime... I'd actually say to tone up Rook's base armor and Hammerslam, and tone down towers very slightly. Like, 100-150 health lower or 50-75 mana cost more at max level. [/quote] I agree complete. Leave the health the same, but increases the mana cost, and double the cooldown, but increase the amount of time they last. <

Meh. I love my Tower Rook, but unless you win by level 12 or so, Tower Rook builds are useless. Tower Rooks builds are *terrible*, and I mean *really terrible* by late game. Your damage is extremely mediocre, the shoulder upgrades AND tower's damage is something that any demigod can just shrug off, and rook is significantly more squish than any other DG. His only "defensive" skill (eat tower) is easily interruptable, and tak

Open your ports, and you will connect to all the other players in 5 seconds or less. I saw a 5v5 assemble in about 20 seconds yesterday. Everyone had their ports open. I cannot stress it enough---- *open your ports*. In fact, the only time it takes awhile to connect to other players is if two players do not have open ports, then you have to go through the NAT system.

I highly recommend Sparks Plus :). Malt Beverage + Energy Drink = Win. Recommend holding off on consumption till after leaving the office. :)

3 am, and you're going to sleep, huh? I think you mis-understood the directives from God. You're supposed to get 1-2 hours of sleep per *month*, not per *night*. Get back to work! You're not scheduled to sleep until June 1st! Har Har Seriously though, sounds like you guys are burning the midnight oil. Hope you get a chance to relax in the very near future. Multiplayer seems to have gotten much better for me lately (v

Hi All, I've really been enjoying the Rook tower builds; I think they're incredibly fun, and useful. I basically treat Rook like a catapult. I build tower farms, hold flags, creep, and past level 10 I destroy towers like theres no tomorrow. That being said, although I usually have no problem holding off an UB, Oak, QoT, or TB in one of my Tower Farms, Erebus seems to ignore them altogether. I haven't played with Erebus, which is something I mean t

[quote who="_Pedro_" reply="22" id="2175716"] quoting post The reality that most PC game publishers ignore is that there are people who buy games and people who don’t buy games. The focus of a business is to increase its sales. My job, as CEO of Stardock, is not to fight worldwide piracy no matter how much it aggravates me personally. My job is to maximize the sales of my product and service and I do that by focusing on the people who pay my salary – our customers.

Hi Frogboy! First time poster, long-time lurker. 1. Love the game! I'm a happ-ish customer (will be happier as the multiplayer issues become less and less frequent). I'm a huge stardock fan, ever since Stardock released the original Galactic Civilizations on OS/2. Please consider releasing Linux/Mac stuff, too, perhaps in conjunction with Wine, Codweavers, or Transgaming! 2. I have to admit, I do pirate some games, from some of those "other" companies. T
