Reply to A.I. Frustration in Demigod Stardock Forums

[quote who="Shadow_Avenger" reply="9" id="2265979"]I don't think the actual "I" part of "AI" improves between Hard and Nightmare, so if you want cheating set to "Off" just play on Hard instead of Nightmare. Hard AI might cheat a little bit, but easily overcome. In fact, I barely notice a skill difference even between Normal and Hard AI, but there probably is a little. As this really isn't meant to be a single-player game, I don't expect GPG to spend too much time developing th

Reply to 3v2 Pantheon?!? in Demigod Stardock Forums

Wait...so the way this "matchmaking" system is set up for pantheon, it now effectively guarantees that an experienced player will be stuck with a newbie? To make matters worse, it will DELIBERATELY pit 2vs3 at times? Hmm...I may have to re-evaluate playing pantheon then until that's fixed. This is not a game where you can routinely win when outnumbered.

[quote who="kryo" reply="5" id="2265912"]The AI's job isn't to be fair, but to present a challenge. In a real-time game of this nature it can be difficult to make an AI that can compete effectively by gameplay alone, so the bonuses are used to make up that gap.[/quote] But it does that job VERY poorly on the hard skill setting by nerfing your teammates. Nightmare I can understand, but having nerfed teammates in a team game doesn't make it hard, it makes it pointless.</p

No way, the worst map by far is a tie between prison and cataract. Prison because it's too wide open, and cataract because it's too easy to take/lose your main portals.

Are the devs still upgrading the AI? (this is not custom match related) in Demigod Stardock Forums

While the AI has improved "slightly", it still needs tons of work. Whether we like it or not, the AI is and will remain a large part of this game. Players will inevitably drop/ragequit/crash/abducted by aliens, and their replacements need to be at the very least, challenging. Why do they not have the HARD AI default as a player leaves? Why is it the braindead normal AI? Or hell, give the dropped player NIGHTMARE AI. Anyway, does anybody know if there is any more work be

You know you have a noob partner when he gets stuck in a corner and ends up jittering in place for 5 minutes (yes, 5 minutes) and then comes back and says "sorry, I went to get a drink"...was amazing he was still alive.

[quote who="Schobbo" reply="1" id="2248219"]I'm not 100% sure but I think creeps don't give you gold at all, so you would be limited to the set amount of gold you get from your citadel. I don't think it would be a good option to not get any gold for kills, but the amout of gold for kills should be reduced, by 50%. [/quote] Creeps do give you gold. More gold for the more powerful creeps. As for the gold from demigod kills, this is why I mentioned it would be

An interesting option that could be added to custom games. in Demigod Stardock Forums

I was thinking the other day that with many people complaining about demigod kills offering too much gold, that there might be an option for custom games added that could make it to where you get no gold at all from killing demigods (same goes if they kill you) only experience. Obviously there are some minuses to this, one of them being that matches would take considerably longer if you could only get gold from farming creeps. This would generally ensure an even match throughout the e

Why is it always 3 out of 4 people that connect to each other, but a 4th player isn't connected to anybody? in Demigod Stardock Forums

Question is in the topic. This happens more often than not, 3 out of 4 players connect to each other just fine, and the 4th is connected to nobody, screwing up the chance at connect. I don't play custom matches much (not one for fighting pre-made teams, thanks) so this is skimish/pantheon related.

Anybody have any ideas of this weird thing I've noticed? in Demigod Stardock Forums

If I don't play the game for a few hours online, I can usually get my first skirmish/pantheon game going in under 30 seconds. After that, it takes the usual 15-30 minutes to get a game running. This is consistant and keeps happening every time. What in the world is going on here?

I'd say pantheon is garbage until it works more times than it fails.

Heart of life + heal by monk/priest = stall the regen of the heart. in Demigod Stardock Forums

I noticed it says that any damage will stop the regen of the heart of life once activated, and that's fine. However, it doesn't say that any healing will stop the regen, but I've noticed if I'm wandering past a priest and he decides to heal me after I activated the heart then my regen stops as if I took a hit. It's quite frustrating when you are moving away, activate the item to heal, then some dumb priest heals you are your regen stops. Is this a bug? Intended?

Reply to This game is still a wreck in Demigod Stardock Forums

Since the latest patch, the game connects less than ever. Pantheon and skirmish modes are even more broken than they were at release. Custom matches work a little better, but I don't like custom matches and having to deal with sitting around, waiting for people to join. I'd rather just pick a match up quick and get to playing.
