Mix :D It's a pity GPG/Stardock and the community made the game so geocentric.

With the release of Patch 1.19 , Demigod finally introduced official replay support. Never too far behind, GameReplays is proud to announce that the Demigod Replay System is up and running, ready for your replays, tips and comments. GameReplays offers popularity rankings via the "wub"
[quote who="Spooky" reply="14" id="2306696"] In my opinion, Demigod does not need new content at all. A good game lives on its repetition, replayability, not on new content. A game that needs new content in order to be playable in the long term, is not a good (multiplayer) game, since it can't live on its own. [/quote] Very wise and true, good to see people understand that replayability cannot be altered by more of the same (linear) content updates.
[quote who="Obscenitor" reply="24" id="2292506"] You're an ass.[/quote] Oh how offensive :( I guess an Ass is not much worse than a mule! In simple terms - If the Fire AA is "fixed" then Ice/Hybrid builds will be virtually unfeasible (self-defeating), unless compensations are made to Ice TB. Fixing this "bug" would make TB nothing more than yet another DPS Demigod. Even with this "bug" TB is not significan
I really don't get this... People are complaining about this because they are only using half of TB's skillset. When will people stop exclusively using fire abilities? At the moment Fire and Ice are pretty well balanced between one another (even though everyone is lazy and plays Fire) but if this change proceeds then Fire would become more dominant than Ice, and you would wipe out 1/2 a Demigod from the game. The Ice abilities are some of the most unique in the game yet people want to kill th
The reso is 1:1 scaled to your display resolution setting. e.g. If your system resolution is 1920x1200, and you resize the demigod window to take up one half of the screen (an A4 page) it will now be 960x1200 (obviously height is actually a little less because of start bar and top bar). Quite sure that's correct? I started using windowed mode so I could desktop without crashing... But whilst actually playing games I seem to be crashing mor
I do find it interesting how GPG are pumping out new versions, but time and time again overlooking replays. It really makes me wonder if they understand the concept of RTS games being played at any kind of comeptitive level. More in game content isn't going to magically change the dynamic of the community, it simply means that there's a bit more stuff to keep you interested for a bit longer, the gameplay isn't bad so it's not really a problem. Missing replays is really straightjacketing poten
Thanks for support in both areas :P
Sure, pick 10 RTS games and we can go one on each!
Yes because getting All Father's Ring definitely implies that the game is serious... I wish I could take casual games as serious as you, must be a real thrill to beat someone 50-5 rather than 20-5.
I've updated the guide list at GameReplays you linked to, was about a month out of date but it's cutting edge now! (Will remember to always update it)
Of course it's viable, but it's less effective because most Demigod are doing >500DPS. Also in a 1v1 HoL is absolutely essential, whereas a 3v3 or 4v4 it has less of an impact. It does however remain the best bang/buck item in the game. You being a HoL hero is not my problem, it's a style of gameplay which will not be around much longer, nor is it very ingenious (oh wow look at my Shield/Bramble + HoL I'm so amazing). If Demigod actually had a competitive scene I was

Cool... Is Permafrost not a % rather 9MPS constant? Again, there's very few games where I don't have Vlemish + Plenor early on, I just happened to sit around farming for so long I had a lot of gold. Or if an ally already has it it's a definite no no. I will get hungarling if I need the extra slot (i.e I can afford another tanking item). In a close game where you need to spend your gold to improve yourself as soon as you get it, Hungarling wouldn't feature. What about with -15%
Never really thought about not going Scaled. I guess I want to stay out there as long as possible (sometimes I could be level 5 or 6 until I go back). In which case I do need the extra mana by then, might be worth trying the +400 armour though. I'm a speed whore and I'm lazy so that's the reason why I go Anklet a lot, if I was really serious then I'd probably Staff of Renewal. I'm just not a HoL player, I know its benefits and everyone is better off with it, I just don't like its effe

There are quite a few Aus/NZ/Asian players on in our evenings, enough for there to be a game open in the lobby at most times. During the day though there's very few, and yeh, pretty tough to convince most US Hosts to let you play.
Honestly, the biggest thing you can do is to create an atmosphere harnessing competitive gameplay. If you can get replays, a ranked team ladder/clan support and can show you understand the importance of competition, 3rd party tournaments will follow. People not involved in Demigod will see this and be attracted to it. For a huge number of gamers these days, fierce competition makes games fun. People are inclined to play mediocre games (e.g Red Alert 3) because if they are the best, pe

[quote who="WickedDemiurge" reply="16" id="2236106"]How much resources does XFire take to record, and how good are the options? I've been meaning to possibly record some Demigod or something at some point, but I remember FRAPS being incredibly resource heavy.[/quote] It depends a lot on your resolution. if you have modern enough hardware you will be able to record with FRAPS (at half-size reso) but you might have to do the sub-optimal thing of dropping the in game resolution down a co
Minions need a lot more DPS, but they should also give off XP/Gold to make killing them worth it (right now there's very few situations where attacking minions is sensible).
Yes, scaling is a massive issue and a detriment to gameplay. There are few abilities/demigods who get much benefit out of doing anything but default attack late game.
[quote]http://forums.gaspowered.com/viewtopic.php?p=594285#594285[/quote] But GPG are known to be a brick wall, maybe it's best if Stardock sends the message.
Obviously this is GPG's area, and it's very disappointing to see that it's been overlooked for 1.01. Surely it's a relatively basic fix and less time consuming than a lot of other things. So is anyone willing to stick their head out and give an ETA on when replays are going to be officially integrated ito Demigod?
