Well constructed argument. It's amazing to see the players giving these issues more thought than the devs. A punishment system is BAD BAD BAD on so many levels it could well kill this game. gg GPG

I totally disagree with this. It's a cheap mechanic that replaces skill with equality, which is unfair to skilled players. It's like saying in a FPS shooter you start to kill someone a lot so you get less bullets or less HP. How would that be fair? Most rege quit issues come down to differences in skill level. If you want that problem solved then promote a proper ranking system that is reflected in game.
+1 Show me a single game taht didn't have its life extended by years once it was opened up for modding. Replays would be really awesome too, though kinda dangerous. (Remembers watching SupCom replays obsessively for a month straight lol) I really wish GPG weren't a silent big brother on this project, it would be good to hear from them. Why is it I get the distinct feeling that DG has taken a back seat to SupComII and they've just gone 'Let Stardock deal
lol that's pretty cool. I should take a screen shot of my 2 28" monitors :P
[quote who="Speusippus" reply="4" id="2251921"] Quoting drugfreeboy, reply 3I wouldn't mind seeing some rebalancing to a lot of the items in the shop and the favor items. I'm not really gonna give my opinion on what favor items are better or worse, but I think its fair to say that there are some that are considerably less useful. Granted some cost less favor points, but in the long run everyone's gonna have all the favor items anyway. I wish it didn't feel like some of them we
The only logic I can see for this, is it would be killer if this game had a feature liek Diablo where you can SEE the gear they are wearing. It would look neato. But aesthetics can't beat out game play and the current system works great.
[quote who="si1foo" reply="24" id="2251923"]still think blood of the fallen ones is one of the best items espicaly earily on like below lvl 7 it is brilliant[/quote] For sure, i love lane camping whilst a level 1 reg sits there adn crys cuz his arrows hardly damage me. It's lolz.

They need to do a serious evaluation of what Valve has done for TF2. That's a license to print money AND have a wicked community. This game also needs more universal depth to become appealing. At the moment almost all of the DGs LOOK cool but the voice acting etc. is so bad you wanna push them off the edge of prison.
[quote quoting="post"] I'm leaving the Demigod community until they make some serious changes to the balancing of the game. Specifically Regulus, he is rediculiously overpowered. -Mines that cant be destroied even of you see them, taking out well over half your health and slowing you down. -Sniping you across the map, which means you have to turn around and head back to base because you are way to disadvanted to fight anyone. -Ability to shoot auto attac

[quote who="woppin" reply="8" id="2250604"]The suggestion is probably that it favors a certain type of build because proportionally it is stronger than the other +stat favor items. I'm of the opinion that this and the anklet are both examples of items that give too large a stat boost. Consider it takes 3 points in inner grace to get the speed boost of the anklet playing as Sedna.[/quote] And? You miss out on other great favour items. Lot's of people use a ran
blood of the fallen, makes > level 10 oak a lot less squishy.
How is it OP? Anyone can choose to either get it or not. What's the problem?
[quote who="Obscenitor" reply="7" id="2250546"] AI will never be as good as a human without 'cheating'You can download a free chess program that can beat grand masters, I don't think the AI can't be made competitive. That being said, I'd be fine with it just cheating. Just make AI controlled characters give half gold and make them level up faster when they're more than 2-5 levels (the specific number isn't the point) behind the average player level.[/quote]
ermm... why? what's wrong with the current system. Your post is lacking.
or both ^_^
AI will never be as good as a human without 'cheating' you just can't program those kinda complex dynamics. What would eb better would be a handicap system. Say a 4v4 player drops then the opposing team gets a 25% boost to all stats so they could effectively 3v4 without getting default wiped :P
there's nothing wrong with the actual game. The problem is skill levels. This should be addressed not crazy tower upgrades and weird buffs.
.. I'm currently alt-tabbed form a game because my team wouldn't listen. How hard is it to listen to 'Don't 3v1 them you will die.' SMITER. sigh.... fucking retards.
[quote who="ProximityFixed" reply="11" id="2222712"]There is an easy way to curb how much he sucks. Take whatever skill you want at level 1. Take Blood of the Fallen. Buy Monks, cast and sell back. Buy Banded Armor and Scale Mail. You'll have 1000 Armor and 2900 hp at level 1 and be literally unkillable without HEAVY 2v1 situation or dry-humping towers.[/quote] I love seeing a level 1 oak run at me with priests, I just eat them for free xp and gold... not to
[quote who="regabond" reply="6" id="2243747"]Not all premades are all that great. There are plenty of new players that all join up with their friends and they are all so new that probably a single really good player could kill 3 of them at once. It happens. But you'd never know they were a poor premade, you'd just remember it as an extremely easy game against some random people. The same goes with good premade teams. Sure they are much much tougher to win against but seriously we can't win th
Seriously, I hope that GPG doesn't take these threads seriously. Any player worth his salt knows that this is a very balanced game adn every single 'X IS OP' whine is easily shut down or countered by decent strategy. No DG or build in the game is unbeatable. You're just coming up against better players, it does happen!
[quote who="TheGuildfordStrangler" reply="25" id="2243705"] Quoting cilice, reply 23You know strangler, I've been watching you post around the forums, and I gotta say, your not a very cuddly guy. In all seriousness though, maybe if you were a little more polite/friendly about it instead of "after repeatedly screaming at my team to lock a flag they cap" they might consider it with a little more seriousness, instead of being offended/yelling back.
