Reply to Beyond Beta in Demigod Journals Demigod Forums

I believe this game can be amazing, it just needs work in terms of code (bugs, performance, certain mechanics). My primary belief is that abilities in general are a tad too strong, and that there is no benefit to splitting up or a drawback for piling onto the same small spot of ground in group battles. I hate to bring up DotA but as it is DotA provides those benefits for splitting up and not crowding together like kids around a soccer ball in a 7 year old's soccer (football) game.

[quote who="DalzK" reply="3" id="2092569"]Or maybe its because its closed beta so there are no new players at all going into the game, and most people who have the beta are expecting something more polished like the RA3/DoW2 beta's.[/quote] I didn't stop playing because it wasn't polished, I stopped playing because: * Empire Total War * "We aren't writing C code anymore" It's a beta with performance, gameplay, and balance issues (beyond script fi

Reply to [BALANCE]Oaks Spirits (2) in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

The last thing that needs nerfed right now is tower damage Dalzk. I think spirits are pretty well balanced now, they should probably be able to hit a moving target (below a certain speed, say 6.5-7.0?).

That was a HUGE part of the fun I had in that game and it got a whole lot more people involved in competitive play as it was integrated directly

I'd like to add that it seems the AI rooks use the 2D targeting system for Hammer Slam still, they tend to hit regardless of distance.

You have natural mana regen that is also in effect during the 10 seconds it is active, my assumption is the TB has 25 mana/second regen naturally? The item merely adds 300 a second over 10 seconds additionally.

Pelor Crown doesn't give me unlimited mana, I usually have to grab it and the 1750 mana regen hat to keep myself topped off. 2 out of 5 slots devoted to mana is quite a chunk when you look at it.

Reply to [BUG]Warpstone in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

It's a pretty common bug which is caused after using an ability, I call it the "stuck bug". It can be remedied almost 100% by issuing a move order inbetween abilities, you don't even have to move necessarily it just has to "reset" your Demigod. I hope they fix it.

Reply to [Balance] Warp Stone in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

Removing warpstone completely changes the dynamic of the game. If it needs balancing or cost increase I'm all for it, but taking it out will most likely require a rebalancing of DGs.

You just answered with exactly what I said... you basically must do the frost nova -> rain of ice -> deep freeze combo... otherwise you will not be a threat to anyone, or kill anything (as Ice TB). Ergo 'one trick pony', the only difficulty in the whole thing is getting people close enough to you so you can pull it off. That changes in t

Reply to UI things, Rook, etc in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

I feel the same way Wagnard, I don't like the minimum distance in it's current state. If you click to the side outside of minimum range the Rook will turn into that direction which sometimes puts the point you clicked inside the minimum Slam distance, at which point the Rook's pathing AI goes nuts and no hammer slam. If the Rook could hammer slam at his feet I would be happy :)

I dunno, I liked the ELO system in SupCom [e digicons]:\[/e] Do you think a "hybrid" Elo ranking system would work? You'd start at 0 that lets you gain points up to some arbitrary value (say 1600) at which point the Elo system takes over?

Little list of things... in Demigod Ideas Demigod Forums

I have a list of suggestions I think would better the gameplay as it stands. Oak: -Spirits should have decreased damage as they travel farther from Oak, as well as having lower base damage or lower HP to begin with (or a combination of both) -Give Oak's banner a slight health/mana regen aura as well as armor aura making it useful out of combat (like +3/+3 last level) -Oak's morale could be changed to give AoE resistance to spirits (against towers

Reply to [Cheese/Balance] Regulus range in Demigod Demigod Forums

All Demigods can hit while on the move (it is hard to get Rookmoving that fast for obvious reasons). I don't think the outranging of towers is necessarily overpowered, it is just a good way of forcing the opposing teams reaction in a battle. The UB can run around spitting on towers all day which does a considerable amount of damage when you look at the fact that the UB doesn't even have to hang around, he takes one hit from the tower and delivers 800~ damage at level 4.

Reply to UI things, Rook, etc in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

Rook is still very viable, I like the ground attack hammer it adds some fun to playing him. I have no problem landing hits with him occasionally... it certainly gives added bonus to use teamwork to land the powerful hammerslam.
