I think it's a real shame that FB is reported to no longer be taking so much of an active role in the DG forums. The level of support and feedback has been awsome. Enjoy the break FB, you've no doubt earnt it.
[quote]We'll have to wait patiently while other more critical issues are sorted out.[/quote] What, like adding select random Demigod to custom games? [e digicons]:rofl:[/e] Sorry, couldn't resist.
A few evenings ago, I got the penultimate favour item I really wanted. Do I care? Yes. Do I care that much? No. I actually in a way like the decision, strangely.
I feel angry sometimes (well, all the time, but thats another story), about people who rage quit and those that refuse to listen then rage quit. e.g. A Regulus stands toe to toe with an UB and EB, they die. Fair enough. I say, dont go two against one, wait for help, or come help us, or stack health if they are a rook with less health than my fairy build Reg. Do they listen? Nooooo. Fair enough, they have no obligation to listen to me - however, when they then QUIT after feeding the op
I actually like the sound of how this should be working. With a bit of time and some experience, a lot of players should change their behaviour to suit. Either way, I am more than happy to play a full game and not concede unless everyone else wants it. 40 favour points for taking a loss, bargain. Anyone who is quitting now are just too stupid to figure o
Seeing as everyone seems to have a different view about dropped players, cant custom games come with an extra option to choose what happens? e.g. No AI take over, 0% reward, 50% reward, 100% reward for killing them if they stay? Would that solve the problem or just create more bickering in custom games over what is set? My issue is, seeing as someone has likely fed the other team anyway before they quit, anything other than 0% reward is simply going to compound the already losing team
Superb feedback to the community AS ALWAYS. I don't usualy bother using caps, but it really needs to be said. DG is an awsome online experience for me personaly and the game has a lot of possibilities for the future. To help fund some of the 'wants', I really hope an expansion pack is in the back of peoples minds.

This is another great solution to a big problem. Either a. remove the AI from taking over, which has been suggested many times, or b. this, which is a reall good idea. No feeding on silly AI to get easy wins. Like someone else said, its a big enough advantage as it is. Fed on a stupid human player, who quit, leaving 3 v 2 (+ AI). Thats already a huge advantage so no, no reward at all for killing the AI. Please, GPG, do something about this, for the love of god.
Having a locally stored banlist would be a great idea. Person tries to join a lobby, host computer checks the name against a list, its on the list, connection canceled. Simple, easy and something SD could do themselves.
[quote]That should have been near 2k-3k total snipe damage at the end.[/quote] More like 4k with 4 of them from long range. But yes, this does just go to show that stacking DGs is not overpowered. Skill and planning will overcome even these crazy situations.
[quote]Itt's just plain unsportsman like. His quit caused another one of this teammates to quit and left their poor UB to fend for himself. It was lame. He singlenhandedly ruined the game or his team mates so yeah, maybe he deserves a little calling out.[/quote] Agreed, completely.
You know what really 'sux' is when people use the word 'sux'.
I too am worried about the community peaking and then dying off. I really dont want that. Demigod is the first game in a long time that I have bothered playing online with any interest or conviction. At the end of the day, it is going to be a three pronged attack that keeps it going. Marketing to get more people in, more content to keep people interested and also draw new in, while finally providing that interactive, feature rich environment that many big games have. I really
Yup.
One of each sounds nice to me, but anything would be good.

[quote]They are STILL going to give away 2 FREE demigods. Read the Dev Journals, Frogboy talks about it a ton. We are addressing a completely different question here: how do you want your expansion packs?[/quote] Thats what I thought. I thought, stupid n00bs dont bother reading the dev journals. Silly people saying we should pay for whats already been promised for free. I see now I should have read the whole thread properly instead of getting it all wrong lol.

I'm willing to pay NOTHING for 2 new DGs and new maps as that was part of what SD said would be available for free as part of free DLC and continuing support. After that, who knows, $20 for a decent sized expansion pack would seem appropriate. Seriously, if they dont provide some of this free content that was lorded around the time of release, my oppinion of Stardock (not GPG, I bought the game from Stardock) will drop.
I'm hoping for 10 DGs with the current game and around 16 with an add-on (buyable, obviously). More would be great, but being realistic, each new DG is going to cost exponentially more in terms of testing time. Adding a 17th means testing against 16 other DGs and ALL those combinations, ouch. Same sort of thing with maps, a couple of extra maps for free DLC but then LOADS more with an addon pack. It would be nice to get a slightly different class of DG as well, perhaps a holdi
[quote]SD has stated that they are responsible for all digital downloads.[/quote] Okay, thank you.
[quote]exactly wat i did... practise[/quote] Then I look forward to playing you online sometime.
So does that mean because I bought the game on Impulse yet live in the UK, I should go on the Atari forums? Other than that, an interesting post.
Oh dear, it's usualy beaten by a DG in mulitplayer then come onto the forums to claim its overpowered. This time, its beaten by an AI and come onto the forums to complain. Crikey. I'm an average player at best, I can hold my own but thats it. Against AI though, sheesh. I remember when I first started and did a 5v5 all hard match. It lasted well over an hour and I quit because it was a stalemate. Basically, I was a complete newbie and needed to learn the game. So instead of letting eve
[quote quoting="post"]This item sucks. It can only kill creeps, and the only beenfit it has over normal attack is range, but you don't get XP/gold for the kills, so there's no value to it at all. You can't even kill general minions with it, the best use I can think of. The damage badly needs increase or the CD decrease. [/quote] Wrong. This is a superb weapon that helps you level super fast in early game.
Right, so thats it. Thanks Fuzzy Logic. Now I am pissed off. Been spending all morning scanning the computer with various programs to find where this mysterious virus is. It's just a "functional" part of the website. SD, please get in here and remove this utter crap from the forums. Really appreciate the responses guys, thought I was going even more insane.
