Oddly, it didn't let me choose during this last reset. I was made to play for the Evil side without any input from me. Are Pantheon teams supposed to be all from one side (light or dark) or can they be mixed together?
I gots a UI question. When I hit my teleport hotkey, is there a further hotkey I can use to have it target my citadel, or my item shop, without my having to scroll the screen over there and click on the building?
[quote who="Phazure" reply="1" id="2219233"] Reduced 77% Original 439 x 569 [/quote] Pretty sure OP is asking how to get to that dialogue. OP, is there not a Demigod folder in you Program Files? If it has demigod.exe in it, create a shortcut for that file, and right click the short cut and select properties. You'll get hte dialogue Phazure just showed you.

Here's some evidence that UB is OP in some sense. I usually play as Oak. But I suck as Oak. I am simply not that quick of a thinker, or that much of a multitasker. And Oak requires both. As an experiment, I decided to try UB for a while. I made a build which I didn't really mean to take seriously. I was just trying a minimalist experiment. The build concentrates on Spit, Inner Beast, Stats, and Plague. With this build, I only need to know one hotkey--'1' for spit.
In a game I just played (in which my team won) one of our team-mates kept lambasting me for what he believed were poor strategic decisions. I in turn thought he was making poor decisions. Based on the end game statistics, he seems to be a better player than me. (I took far more flags than him, but killed fewer buildings and far fewer grunts. We each killed a demigod twice and died once. It should be noted that I was UB (spit concentration) and he was Rook (tower concent

I was wrong about one thing--it turns out it [i]wasn't[/i] the same memory address each time.

I've gotten the following error three times: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) at address 0x18016432 attempted to read memory at 0x0010d94c. To my recollection, the "attempted to read memory" address was exactly the same each of the three times. Does this mean I have bad RAM? Here's the rest of the 100 line log from the most recent incident: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) at address 0x18016432 &nbs
[quote who="ragequitter" reply="4" id="2212308"] I don't understand how you are doing HoL + Shield wrong. [/quote] My point was that if it's true that stun interrupts HoL even when Oak is shielded, then I [i]wasn't[/i] doing anything wrong. I was just being interrupted.
I would think it would be better if the player is replaced by an AI, but that AI no longer awards exp or gold when it is killed. Why get rid of the DG entirely? If AI isn't giving enemy gold and exp, then surely some AI is better than no AI. If the DG is simply removed, the game is definitely over. There's no point in anyone continuing on anymore.
Was in a bad mood last night when I posted the OP, due to a more experienced (I presume) team-mate piling on the insults, thereby distracting me, thereby causing me to commit even more errors. Though I made mistakes, we were winning for a long time, and I chalk up the loss to the distraction caused me by my team-mate. You're right there can be a little more than brief information or advice. Even aside from planning, some comeraderie-building bits of chatter can probably also be approp
This is something I've wondered about. People have told me that HoL is a must-get for oak. Just use it while shielded and you're good to go, right? I tried it, to little success, decided there was something I was doing wrong, couldn't figure it out, and went on to try to develop tactics I could handle. But can HoL really be stopped while Oak is shielded? If so, then I can't see how HoL is supposed to be the end-all be-all must-get item for Oak. Just like everybody else, he has

I got the same thing tonight, and also, every DG game I try to play online today has unusual stuttering* and people dropping out at strange times (i.e. it doesn't look like they dropped on purpose, no reason no warning). *Is stuttering the same thing as lag?
Game froze up and I got the following in a window labled "Unhandled Exception." Would this be a problem with the game or with my computer's memory? Is it possible to tell just from this?

[quote who="Jaradakar" reply="16" id="2204503"]I have to agree with many of the other posters and have to ask the design team, why? Why impliment this feature? Who is your target audience for this feature? What percentage of users do you think will use this? As I've mentioned in previous posts, I think other match making features allowing a team to be formed up prior and a system similar to Microsoft's True Skill to match up your team with another team of equ
[quote who="GuyNice" reply="11" id="2204419"] Quoting RegnorVex, reply 9 I love this game and most of the things that you guys do, but this idea is really loopy and needs to be retired. Adding a way for players to segregate the community is just such a bad idea for a thousand reasons, including that you're feeding griefers a great new tool. News that an official "ban list" is coming this Fall makes me shake my head and wonder why you aren't focusing instead on maki

The game runs playably with all settings on low on my laptop, which is: Intel Dual Core T3200 2.00GHz Intel 4 Series graphics (want to say something like Intel 4500HD? Can't remember, and system info doesn't specify) 3 GB RAM. That's pretty damn low end.
