[quote who="lordkosc" reply="3" id="2187232"]I don't think I've ever seen Stardock lock a thread, EVER. [/quote] there were at least two threads locked about 2 weeks ago. one was about steam and i don't remember the other one.

i would say demigod is using ideas from dota while trying to do something authentic at the same time. i think the end product is pretty good. to the OP: my friends and i looked at this game from a spectator's perspective pre-release. we didn't have the beta. all we had were screenshots and dev videos. know what our first conclusion was? there isn't going to be ganking like there is in DotA due to the map design and fog of war. you apparently a
the game doesn't need 93 heroes like dota. it doesn't even need 30. quality can be greater than quantitiy.

this happens to every demigod is and extremely annoying. nothing like dying or missing a kill because of a bug as old as beta [e digicons]:annoyed:[/e]
i'll be playing dota 6.60, but i'll still be very interested in demigod. currently i'm very very bored with dota and would prefer if demigod was less buggy and stuff (the horse isn't dead yet).
why does bite need to be usable on buildings even if nerfed? pentinence isn't. should it be just because bite gets to work on buildings as a result of a nerf? and many abilities working on buildings is a good thing, because there's so many buildings per map.
keep the good multiplayer games on PC please, so we don't have to sacrifice multitudes of features for a gamepad, an overpiced service, and some empty notion that consoles are better for casuals.
great interview
the OP is right in being frustrated by getting matched up in a 2v1 in a tournament mode. getting feeder partners is just a common happening in random team games for a lot of people so it's unavoidable for the most part signed for teamed pantheon.
there's a lot i disagree with, so i'll just go with what i agree with.. i agree with: - bite: i think the MP cost is fine, but the cooldown cycles a little bit too quickly. - sedna's minions are way too costly in terms of mana (for starters) - QoT siege abilities seem lackluster - shambler rank 4 needs to add something more. - bestial wrath seems fairly weak for early and midgame - minions should proc demigod specific abilities when kill
i'm looking forward to starcraft 2, but the lols from an utter failure might be greater than the fun i'd have.
a reconnect feature would be amazing. always wished people could R/C to dota games they crashed out of (assuming they didn't crash out on purpse ^^).
i'll take one copy of sins and its expansion... and... a cabinet full of bees.
well, i will agree that leveling is, in some cases, too hard to catch up on for a team that is even slightly losing, but perhaps that's how it should be. if a team let's itself fall back on levels, then they didn't manage that resource as well as the other team did
there's a difference between asking for leeway in getting destroyed and asking for the ability to shift momentum. there are already ways to achieve the latter.
from my personal experience, the connectivity issues are just about gone. there seems to be a few problems remaining (bigger gamemodes like 4v4 and 5v5 are troublesome), but joining and playing games has become a reliable occurrence for me. i know that doesn't help people with buckets of problems but oh well. also, things like the NAT server crashing (like today) are just going to happen with MP games. sometimes online services experience problems and need maintenance.
i do think there might be an overabundance of speed items in the game considering they all stack. everyone can use them, but it can make for too low of risk playstyles (see: tower diving, mainly). as for rook, a speed stacked team can really make him suffer. the boulder lasts 2.5 seconds at max level, leaving 1.5 seconds (+delay if there is any) to perform the slam. he's slow(er) anyway, so a DG pretty much has to be exactly in melee range to get a full slam off.&nbs
how is early game dominance unimportant
teleportation scrolls are fine as-is IMO. speed items, snares, stuns, potions (quick ones) or help from a team member are some options when forced to run from a UB (he's tough on quite a few DGs early on). exta HP from a chestplate wouldn't hurt either.
*edit actually it just worked for me and took me to host v.055.

click the impulse symbol in impulse -> preferences -> click 'Reset Data' under impulse options. impulse should reconnect or whatever, go to 'My Games', and the update should be available. i'm not responsible if your games list disappears or devs call you names
