Imported Sly's logic [quote who="Sly_Squash" reply="4" id="2205988"]Umm... if playing with people halfway around the world isn't what causes MP games to lag, wtf do you think does? And don't give me some bs about "netlag"... Playing with people in the same geographical location is one of the best ways to ensure a smooth, quality gaming experience. Period. Aussies, play with aussies if you don't want lag the rest of us down. High

[quote who="landzin" reply="16" id="2306497"]it is true that a ping of 280 doesnt lag the game often, but the occurence is much higher. ive played games where everyone has a good sim speed, good ping, and yet for some reason the game would still have lag spikes, there is no magic number but even if the game lags a little at 280, your probably waiting longer in the lobby than time lost from lag.

[quote who="Melric" reply="4" id="2305849"]Pings under 250 won't lag the game either. It may be true that you can push that to 350, but why should I take that chance when I can simply replace that player with someone else? It has been my experience over the course of several 10s of games that the higher the ping, the more likely lag will be introduced or a player will drop. Further, there are any number of reasons that a player can reach a 350 ping other than distance.

350ms ping or less wont lag the game in Demigod Demigod Forums

Just as the title says, pings under 350 wont lag the game out. Its my effort to help ppl get more games going, including myself, and stop the hate towards ppl with 280. Once a guy enter a game I created (no description from where in the world I'm hosting the game, no one would join if I did it) and said to me: "ffs man, you should never host a game, look at your ping" and left the room. So, again, 350ms ping wont lag the game. If you

Reply to Why not doubles? in Demigod Demigod Forums

[quote who="Epiphenomenon" reply="11" id="2304724"]We should host a doubles tournament. One team doubles/triples and another team counters. Then the other team plays the double and the original team plays the counter. If one team wins both rounds, then skill is probably a contributing factor. If the doubles win each time, then this would suggest that the double was better against the counter. If the counters win both times, then the counters were probably proven to be stronger than the double

[quote who="InfiniteVengeance" reply="9" id="2304598"] You need the data to show that on average, less skilled players win against more skilled players consistently. Agree? The only way to gather data regarding the supposed OP-ness of doubles is to permit their usage. [/quote] Yes, now I understand what u said. :)

[quote who="InfiniteVengeance" reply="5" id="2304561"] Actually, the idea of "doubles" being imbalanced can be technically "proven" It would require much data. Data that no one has gathered. Data that is not a screenshot of a game where you beat some doubles team. I'm not saying it's not possible, but don't pretend like any of us have access to the metrics that we would need to assert an verifiable conclusion. [/quote] What?

[quote who="Schobbo" reply="8" id="2303170"]With that much gold you had and such a big level advantage, you should have won. IF you didnt, you did something wrong, and it doesnt mean the game needs some extra items that make you win more easily. With that much gold ahead you could have easily have giants first. Not enough warrank? use capture locks all the time. To me it sounds like your loss was just a combination of bad teamwork and not enough citadel upgrades. [/

If the counters are too difficult to execute for the average person then it's not a bad thing to make them more accessible. [/quote] What u say is not easy to counter? Let me try to give an easy solution and than u say if its not easy enought. And yes, it is the same as the chess example.

[quote who="InfiniteVengeance" reply="8" id="2302543"] No, No, No, No. If bad players can't counter something that is in fact perfectly counter-able, its not the game's problem. Not true either. Consider a ninth Demigod who had an ability that fired a moderate-speed projectile at an targeted place on the ground while painting a huge bullseye on the spot. This projectile if it hit any Demigod at the target location would kill it instantly. Balanced?&nbs

[quote who="csebal" reply="15" id="2300645"] As for the rest of the thread: Come on people.. you still dont realize do ya? Its not even about balance. It is a simple powergamers vs casual players argument. Some people simply want to have fun. Playing against demigod combinations that are way out of proportions compared to other combinations (and yes.. this does not only mean doubles) is simply not fun. While looking for strong combinations is a big part of competitive play..
