Awesome!! :) Atm I am limited to 2 vs 2 games due to my connection but am upgrading my connection to a faster speed tommorow. I've had some great games too, but 2 vs 2 games are not nearly as epic as 3 vs 3 and larger games im sure. Demigod is indeed a very good game and I hope it succeeds at being the next popular tournament game. It is definitely one of the funnest and most unique games I have ever played.

Sins is indeed a Great game. I've had it since launch and bought the beta and still play it to this day. Entrenchment totally changed the landscape of the game for the better. With Entrenchment it has some of the best gameplay I've ever experienced. Can't wait to check out the new Diplomacy micro exp... should prove interesting.
You've played "I wanna be The Guy"? lawl, wtf is that. I don't think I even want to know..... no..ew... no.
lol That Erebus bug is pretty funny, luckily I've never encountered that happening to myself or anyone else in a game. I can't think of any bugs atm that you already listed, but if I see some I'll let you know.
I'm stumped too. Looks familiar though.
Great idea. [e digicons]k1[/e] Some karma for you, good sir. I fully agree this should be implemented. Hope Stardock, GPG, and the modders see this.

Try it. Switch your Demigod process to affinity 0... this should make that core, and only that core focus on t
I came across it once by accident, but for some reason it didn't occur to me what I had just did since I was in the middle of a battle. XD Now, I know. Awesome. In a way, this should help clans and teams strategize to a new level. Passing powerful itmes around to allow a situational build to succeed in a given task could help clans and teams who work together well more options for success.

[quote who="Dead Ghost" reply="20" id="2190773"]No, it's not a software problem. I have dual boot, Vista x64 and Win 7 x64. The Win 7 is on another hard disk and it's a fresh install, without any programs installed, other than Demigod and drivers. Same problem there, very high spikes in 4v4 and 5v5 matches.[/quote] Here Deaghost. I found the Topic I was talking about.

[quote who="Playdoh" reply="6" id="2190814"]The game as it is now has an intentional slippery slope to prevent games where skills are obviously lopsided to not waste time playing tug of war where the game artificially buffs the losing team. I think it was precisely what the devs had in mind. However, these ideas would definitely be nice to try in a mod. yes.[/quote] I've already looked through the Demigod files and the potential for modding looks huge. For a Reverse Domination mode (t

If you (deadghost) can find Xsive's thread on this topic it might give you some insight into what the problem might be in relation to spiking. Mine is primarily my upload speed not being enough. When I play a game (3 vs 3 or higher) my lag is a consistent 1000-3000 lol XD. And I mean consistent. It doesn't spike. So I'm pretty sure yours may simply just be case of some kind of packet sniffing on either your end or another users end. If I can find Xsives thread I'll link here,

I just upgraded my connection, so after 6pm tommorow I should be seeing some better speed and connectivity performance. It isn't blindingly fast @ 3mb download with a 768kb upload, but I hope this will alleviate p2p games not supporting many players for me (it isn't just demigod that I have this upload speed problem).

You get lag spikes in the game, because there is lots of data transferred from you to every other player. And yeah, that's really terrible upload speed. I think you need about 25 kbit/sec per player in the game. So for a 2v2, you need 75 kbit, but for a 3v3 you
[quote who="PurplePaladin" reply="23" id="2190416"]Ok, here are some tips for new players: At first, you make think that dieing to another DemiGod (DG) is not so bad. You lose no money, no experience points (XP), and you only get 30 seconds in "Limbo". So you may think there is nothing to lose charging into towers or several other DGs, because, whats the worst that can happen? Well, the bad news is, the other team gets money and XP for killing you; money they can

[quote who="SkepticalMind" reply="8" id="2190514"]I have the same problem and I use a cable connection with over 2Mb/s uploads on average. People have reported this problem across a wide range of ISPs and variables.[/quote] Now, I definitely don't understand how you could be having this problem as you've got plenty of upload bandidth. I don't even have a MB of upload bandwidth. Yours might just simply be a case of the ISP strangling the connection.

[quote who="Phalnax811" reply="3" id="2190419"] When you die, you should respawn where you died as a ghost. When your a ghost you can move around ilke normal but only do one damage, and have infinite life. Good idea....my tweaks to it -Ghost as you said...invincible -No damage can be dealt while in ghost form, not even 1 -The screen is still dulled out -In order to revive you must float back to the Stone that heals you IN your base (no one

[quote who="tassox33" reply="2" id="2190224"]I guess scouting for regulus would be the only downside to it, but really he gets that at lvl 5. Scouting doesnt really play a huge part in this game bc you have to be able to do something about it in the first place.

Haha. Nice idea, but I think instead of respawning where you die, you respawn back at your base as a ghost and are only limited to walking around base... can't do damage or anything, but can stock up on supplies, check items, and check citadel instead of waiting at that dreaded screen of death with nothing to do. Problem with being able to spawn where you died is: you could walk around scouting as a ghost, and just simply report whats going on to your teammates, which isn't really how
