[quote quoting="post"] Listen, I like this game. A lot. I however DO NOT enjoy it when I get a teammate who says FUCKING FUCK FUCK you suck idiot every other sentence and berates me who whatever. Takes ALL the fun out of the game. Stardock and anyone else, what can we do about these players? I know others must have the same experience and it is not fun. Oh, and his game name is DiesMoor. If you see him around. [/quot
[quote who="Agent of Kharma" reply="20" id="2158294"] I have long believed he equipped a ridiculously OP favor item at start. Yes - I consider it BS. Yes - I consider it illegitimate. I think it's a ridiculously stupid idea to have favor items in the game (outside of a campaign or something, which obviously doesn't exist). Why someone would want to "win" (cough) with such a thing is beyond me. [/quote] You seem to be missing the point. If you pl
I don't believe the OP is talking about not commiting to a side. You still have to commit to a side, either Light or Darkness. BUT, when selecting which demigod to play in a battle, all 8 are avaliable. That is what I believe they are suggesting. I sort of agree. IMO having that game mode also puts a damper on adding new demigods as now you always have to add 2 (one for light and one for darkness). Also with 8 completely different Demigods, the odds
[quote who="spujo" reply="9" id="2147121"]I am shocked not more people use the mist. Aside from being a great way to get good xp early and mid game you can't take damage while in mist. I can typically wipe large numbers of grunts and DGs by using mist in combination with the other damage spells. Mid to late game there is nothing like staying in mist while your team arrives to back you up. I would encourage more people to try it out. I use it in every game I play and typically get top damage u
[quote who="ViridShaman" reply="20" id="2157592"] Quoting Guyven, reply 19Besides, Coven, Conversion and Bite what other skills do you max for a minion heavy build? The reason I prefer to play more assassin like is because I can't find a good minion build that would take all the skills I love as an assassion erebus. Poisoned Blood twice for Vampiric Aura since it affects your minions, and Morale. A decent minion build would be the one listed below in my opinion. When geared with min
[quote who="Dahzeal33" reply="3" id="2157991"]I actually like the look of everyone except QoT. I don't like the beetle-flower thing she's pimpin. I think Oak and Sedna are my favorites as far as looks go though.[/quote] I like all of them but QoT. Her implants go against nature (she would be much more attractive if she had normal/athletic size breasts) and in game her plant ride has too many tenticals/twitching for my tastes. That said, she's fun to play

If im correct there are also items with mana burn and mana drain capabilities.[/quote] Correct on both accounts. There is a gloves and armor that both give you a chance to crit (do additional damage). You also want to get more weapon damage upgrades (usually in the form of gloves or weapons at the artifact shop) attack speed upgrades will also greatly i

AI is bad. Any game with AI in it imo can't be used as guide for either strategies or balancing because it is frankly just not good. Real games, with real opponnets are the only real games.
Was in a game. This was the first game I've played where the whole game felt like it was in slow motion. Not sure if it was just a bad connection or if the other players' PC is not very good (too high of settings) or both. Anyway game was going fine, no error what so ever, just BAM crash to desktop. Really sucks when you're in the middle of a good game. Granted in this case it got me out of a lag fest.

Time and money most likely took a role. Developers often have grand ideas some bad, some good but they don't always make it into the game most often due to the evils of time and money. Sometimes you just have to cut certain aspects of games and usually the developer does not want to but you some times have to make hard choices.
[quote who="Guyven" reply="11" id="2155081"]Ouchy has it down I'd say. Thats how I play and usually have no problems. Bite, Mist, Stun, Vamp Aura is it. I dont touch idol's or worry at all about minions. I've tried all sorts of builds and it takes too much gear/skill points to put your minons up to a competitive level. Play him like an assassin and you're golden.[/quote] While I think that is one way to play. I don't think it's the best way
[quote who="Blakeybastard" reply="1" id="2143361"] I find.. go for speed (you will be hunting down a LOT) - as a rule with generals, always buy rank 2 archer idol, cast it, sell it, rank 2 mino idol, cast it sell it, wait 15 seconds till u can buy monk (or not.. its okay without them) and then grab ur teleport scrolls or potions.. or armor whatever. [/quote] While I could be wrong, I'm pretty sure buying an idol, summoning minions and then selling it for another

[quote who="Annatar11" reply="3" id="2154731"]Which has the architecture of an FPS. In other words, P2P games can't allow this [/quote] Correct. The technology to handle large number of units and keep the game in sync between all players does not exist. FPS are built on a totally diffrent architecture and have less information/units to worry about, so they can do it.
O' and I will say... I'm NOT in favor of the "A Surrender Button" I'm pretty much play games with the Galaxy Quests motto, "Never give up, never Surrender!" There are many games you can come back from, if you don't give up. Hell I had a game I was dominating in and I kept spending it all on gear for my demigod. I was unstoppable! Some people would have quit. Instead the other team saved and then blew there cash on cree
Still waiting for mine as well.
Being able to CHAT with people you've joined a game!!! Being able to chat with people in the game lobby (room that you're in!!!) ---------------------------------------------- For me the things I want to see happen most (besides general connectivity improvements) are: Favor fixed, so that you no longer go negative and items purchased stay purchased. Fix it so that they don't have a gold symbol but a favor s
Venom Spit -- Hit and Run build Venom spit IMO is key to a strong UB (Unclean Beast) build. Start off with just Venom Spit. Early game be sure to put some points in the Health Symbol as it increases armor, health regen, weapon damage, mana regen and gives you more health. IMO it's very worth while. Put points in Speed and attack speed increase. Get Post Mordem as soon as you can, as it
In the beginning I think it's like 15 mins to 1 hour are the average game times. I think as you get more familar with how to play games start going faster (20-25mins). The more lopsided a match is (player skill) the quicker the game will be -- but the closer the skill is the more back and forth the match will have. Games Vs AI, if you're playing Queen of Thorns or Rook it can speed things up as you can take down towers faster than most. -Jara &nbs
Score board should be up, just have to hit the contuine button when you're done looking at it. Yes and Yes, at least for now, the Devs have posted they plan to remove favor gains from Custom Games (too easy to abuse AI to get favor). I personally hope this means for Custom Games you can use any favor item. I believe it's totally screwed up, i.e. BUG.

[quote who="Beaver" reply="14" id="2155411"]Regulus' mines never disappear as far as I know... towers should be the same in my opinion (as a Regulus player). P.S. psykofunk write shorter and to the point and people might read your posts. [/quote] Regulus mines blow up once and then are gone. Towers keep shooting as long as they are around. Towers are FINE as is.
I'm not 100% positive but I believe you get a ton of favor points for: Buildings (towers) destroyed. Flag captures. Upgrading the fortress. Winning the game. If you just have more kills, I don't think it rewards you with much favor points. If you lose, you don't get much favor points.
[quote who="warhawke" reply="22" id="2155274"]Can we get some kind of official dev response to this issue and get it stickied please - this is creating a lot of confusion. Just a simple yeah its broke, we are working on it response would be all thats needed. Is there any chance we could get a patch to just disable favor items until this issue is fixed? I agree with one of the other posters that it does get annoying going against others with uber favor items that you cant get cause the f
[quote who="OrleanKnight" reply="19" id="2155048"]It's not going to be a complete fix-it-all. I still have to repeat this process a lot, and I still get negatives. It's frankly pretty random, but at least this helps me enough to keep getting the Favor Items I wish, even if it keeps throwing me into negative territory.[/quote] Frankly it's not a fix at all. I've wasted my time once to get out of negative and buy back the favor items I should have only to have the
[quote who="Silphius" reply="20" id="2148259"]iirc Frogboy said this issue was on a high priority list to be addressed.[/quote] I'm still not convinced it's that big of an issue, but I'm assuming the developers have more information and tracking tools and have the time to run actual test cases where multiple people try to explote this tactic to see if it really is unbalanced. From my understanding if Sedna is back at the fortress/crystal she's not gaining exp or gold. So
