Support for Demigod nowadays consists entirely of moving this thread out of the forum? Oh well...

Oak Teammate attacks enemy Citadel mid game then dies, comes back to life and starts chopping again. Thundercles: "Hey man... what are you doing?" Oak: "Don't worry... I'm a Suicide Oak!"

Right on, thanks guys! Oh yeah, forgot to ask... hows the networking? I don't have any trouble playing DoW II, where Demigod used to be a nightmare of randomly laggy days for me. Guess I'll just have to try it and find out.

Why is everyone but McShane telling this feller lies? Play Fire TB. -You'll learn the basics of the game with an easy Demigod to play. He's got natural speed so you can get out of bad situations easier and "decent" HP for a ranged Demigod. You won't have an interrupt, but when starting out you wouldn't know when to use it anyway. All your burst damage should be a little easier to figure out when and where to use. -You don't

So Erebus used to be the best general? Who the hell was abusing Bloodstone Ring? GPG actually put effort into balancing this game at one point? So Erebus used to be the best assassin?

Bummer... was hoping to play a little today, but its really tough to know if theres enough people around to bother firing it up. You think it might be intentional? Is the party over and they're saying you don't have to go home, but you can't stay here? Don't worry buddy... me and Hedgie got a new game for you if Brad needs the servers for Elemental multiplayer.

I bet the poor guy was lied to by Chris Taylor. "So... did you guys put in any work on the AI like I asked you to?

100% Agree with McShane. I remember one of the last Random Assassin games I last played with the boys where I was talking out my ass about how it would just be an auto-win for our team if I ended up as UB. People were commenting on how it wasn't as easy to play him as I thought, and having played mostly only TB during my Demigod days I figured they were probably right. And the game started and to my absolute horror I saw that I was UB and that the teams

Reply to Demigod: What would you do? in Demigod Demigod Forums

Demigod is a beautiful game, which as someone said previously was part of its downfall since it was impossible to mod thanks to the price of the graphics program a potential modder would need to purchase. Would the community favor sacrificing graphics quality in Demigod 2 in order to make modding and mapmaking possible? Angry Birds and Plants vs Zombies are pretty popular nowadays, so I'm thinking it might be a sacrifice worth making.

You guys had a potential gold mine on your hands, but any opportunity to make Demigod the huge success it should have been is long gone. I would focus on just making a Demigod 2. Anyway, should Demigod 2 ever happen, here are my suggestions: -Make It Moddable. For a genre born of a Warcraft 3 mod, its ironic and frustrating that it would take someone $15K? to buy a copy of Granny 3D and make models and new maps for the game themselves. -Make Getting A Mod O

Reply to [Mod] Favormod - Revision - V2.3.3 in Demigod Modding Demigod Forums

Ok, thanks, I think that makes sense. Since the Nightmares give an aura of 7% evasion, they don't do anything for Demigods without any evasion but if there is a demigod with 10 evasion it would be 10.7? I'm not sure I'll be able to find a use for Gaurdian Platemail, even once it gets changed to stop protecting me from getting healed. Unless it synchronizes with straight up damage reduction abilities like Bulwark, Acclimation, the Assassin Set etc I don't think its useful a

BotS DA and BotS Sedna have far from infinite mana even with a helm because of a lack of efficient AOE mana harvesting abilities to go along with BotS.

Queen of Thorns + Blade of the Serpent: I disagree with your assessment Exxcentric. Queen with BotS not only has infinite mana and thus health through shields and mulching, but I think she takes better advantage of being able to use the new item sets since she barely needs 1 mana helm and doesn't need to stack hp like other demigods. Generals who have infinite health through healing abilities/idols just weren't meant to have infinite mana IMO. But please don't throw th
