Haven't had time to try this out yet, has his model/animatiosn been improved? They seemed lacking compared to the rest of the demigods when I tried him with the mod.

Right now they seem a bit lacking, I hope he's not quite done. He just seems very rigid. Like he's not really alive like the other Demigods. When the Demon Assassin is standing still he moves and breaths, Oculus just sits there like a statue. The same goes with is death animation. Just goes limp and his staff falls and clips through his throne. Even when he moves around it feels clumsy. Heck they could have at least made his pyramid/throne slowly float up and down a bit to give it a sense of

[quote]Opening up the new Demigods to everyone will ensure that correct balancing will take a hell of a lot longer; first, you have to get past everyone playing the new Demigods. This could take weeks depending on if they're over-powered or under-powered at release. Then take into consideration of ease of play; if they're as easy to play as UB, for example, then you're going to be waiting quite a while before you begin to see normalised match ups appear.[/quote]

Looks pretty good. [quote]The two new Demigods look pretty good. The visual quality is absurdly good. The demon assassin is definitely something that I think will be very useful in a team based game. I’ll try to get some screenshots up shortly.[/quote] I'd love to see those screen shots... [e digicons]O:)[/e]

[quote who="ItchyDustbin" reply="28" id="2356936"]Forcing anyone interested in matchmaking to play only light or dark side? That is the only thing I can see that's bad about making Pantheon the only matchmaking.[/quote] Hmm...I think that would be the only good reason against getting rid of Skirmish.

Sounds good to me. I only play Skrimish when the Pantheon is over and I'm waiting for the next one to start. I like Dawn of War 2's setup. The automatching system is reserved for ranked play. You want non-ranked you play custom or private matches. (Post 1.2? How about some more 1.2 info? Like some more specifics on the new Demigods ;) )

[quote who="floodiastus" reply="67" id="2353303"]Because there is an assassin demigod on the way as well, so it will be 6 assassins and 4 generals ? Generals are the pushers of the game, and pushing with just idols will be next to impossible cuz he only got morale as a buff-skill.[/quote] I think it's great that Oculus will end up being a different kind of General. Playing as Oculus will just have to rely on idols more, but that's just fine because Idols will give Oculus st

[quote who="Speusippus" reply="42" id="2348918"]A couple of people have said this general doesn't have non-idol minions. But he does. The ball lightning is his minion. He summons it, and it fights for him until it dies, at which point it explodes.[/quote] Eh, you target it like an ability and it hits everything in it's path pretty much. A Minion implies something more permanent. Something you can control.

I really like this style of General. I always thought controling a horde of minions in Demigod was more of a chore, and half of the Generals don't even use their unique minions. A General with no unique minions that gets stat bonuses from idols sounds great. It's more of an Assassin/General Hybrid. Idols giving stat bonuses that an Assassin would normally get from just getting more gear. Althought he is still obviously a support class. If Blast off doesn't do damage this guy doesn't see

They aren't that bad in my experience. I just get annoyed because they are most often used like "grenades" and not "land mines" If any nerf was coming it should be adding a 0.5-1.0 second to the arming time.
