I looked it up just now and your right. I haden't realized the developers had taken such a stupid route, it would have taken 3 lines to add in this functionality to the server command prompt (define the convar, extern it, and change the default map value) But this is yet another reason why TF2 has no bearing on this, TF2 is a client-server game, demigod is a peer to peer game. The archeitecture of server based game allows for people to go server shoping for THE perfect one and

If people aren't trying to get better it isn't competitive! When two people are competing they're trying to be better than the other! You can't talk about something competitive, and then when we're talking about joe schmoe point out that it's unfair to him that it's competitive!

Yes from what I remember demigods have separate item pools, it was never confirmed but a lot of posts by developers kinda hint at it.

Actually TF2 has fast respwn time servers, instant respawn servers, player limit changes, class limit changes, and a ton of other things... Actually TF2 is perhaps the game that has the most options of any supremely popular game. None of these changes is how it was meant to be played, yet pub games can have hugely diffrent versions of the same game. TF2 does actually have an easy mode called fast respawns, ever join a server where the people are like "why do we take so long to respond?" it's

I personally think the distinction is, one has units and is more rts like and the other has one hero and is more rpg like. I seriously think thats the key diffrence, they can all fill diffrerent roles in diffrerent situations. Zeneroth: When he's buying those upgrades I think he was making things for himself! I.E. perhaps when you buy the minatour building, it spawns a minatour evrey 3 seconds or a squad evrey 30 seconds? for you to use as a general, with only an intial

These ideas remond me very much of another AoS style map called DoE which 7 standedized conditions, and all the heros manipulated them(wheather the hero manipulated 1, 2, or all 7 and how is what made them unique), makes for a cool game I must say.

Reply to Assassins > generals?????? in Demigod Demigod Forums

Yes but generals buy units, not items, their abilities give them more units, and they have buffs by default. What hero in dota is all about the creeps, 75 percent of the abilities are based on the creeps? There isn't one, because all the hero's in dota are assassins, some have a smidgen of general, but they are still all assassins.

I totally agree with the above^ But it has been confirmed by Tyo on the gpg.net forums that you can have multiple heroes in ranked, and an option in multiplayer. On the point of my Top Player argument look at sup com there are the 'top 100' and top player, granted it's degraded a little, but those were my lines of thinking. Also that most competitive games have a couple 'top players', and they're the people who decide how the game evolves (look at

Yes one team and I yet again quote the devs gain "Significant Advantages" Those arn't my words they are the words of the devs. I was merely offering up an idea that they probably allready thought of.

Yes but when they said that the metioned other style of games, not other version of the AoS style map.

I'm saying how could you know the size from a screen shot. Any ways so what if a lot of them are imba? be imba back, have your own deadly spell, get some sort of protection, or the second you get through the spell eat them with your dps. Its a decently balanced game considering (most of the game mechanics are forced upon the developers).

So we all know you devs have seen dota, but just to make sure your using other ideas look at other AoS style maps. HoSK : is more about combos AotZ : Is more about skill with the hero (this is most closly related to demigod) DoE : Is more about te

Think about how simple it would be to implement arrow keys RapierX granted theres some header to this but: A nibble one bit for each key on or off, I don't know how the architecture is set up but thats insanely small net wise. If it's a command hell thats small too. In a 32 person tf2 game how many commands do you think there are a second?

Much smaller aoe? How can you quantify that? From what I can tell it has a decent aoe about the size of a small skirmish of minatours enough to hit evrey unit in the skirmish, and rootfelleons aoe is just that size (actually a bit bigger) lasts for 6 seconds, and does damage. Also how long do you expect it would last? 10 seconds? 20 seconds? 30 seconds? Am I supposed to go get a cup of coffee while I wait? you can only freeze some one for so long, players will only take having 0 input i

To be honest we don't know how it plays.

Ever heard of rootfellens aoe root? or siren's aoe sleep? both ult's I'll grant you but what about lina's aoe stun, thats a basic ability.

Yes which is a tide and flow game something the devs have said is much diffrent from demigod: [quote]Defense of the Ancients could almost be described as a game where two rivers are flowing against each other. Each player is trying to get their river to make headway against their opponent's river until the flow enters their base. My analogy may not make sense unless you've played DotA. But if you have, you probably get my meaning. Demigod does not play quite like that. In Demi
