it's funny, people either seem to enjoy the "Oh my Demigod!" "Double-smite!" stuff or really hate it...judging from comments on gameplay vids, it makes alot of Internet Men ANGRY!!
yah, played a game of 2 v 2 UB, and it was pretty funny. Basically came down to who hit first, once, ftw...
[quote who="Trigeminal" reply="3" id="1930212"] Quoting lprometheus, reply 2 What is a progress bar in the load screen ?? This is seen in COH and Rise of Nations. Baiscally it tells you how close the game is to fully loaded, and how close others are. When you are 95% loaded, they tend to stop and say waiting for other players. It basically is a progress bar showig how much of the game is loaded. I consider it useful and the race is often the most exciti
There's the space pony! Get him!

also missing are flag names, at least in Atlantis. (I figured I'd put it here rather than in a seperate thread, since I think the devs can't really help but correct it.)
[quote who="Teseer" reply="12" id="1929278"] Quoting Ke5trel, reply 9so this vid makes me wonder if we have our list correct. It features Sedna, Oak, Lord Erebus, and an unnamed samurai DG we've been calling Yoshimitsu, who I think is an assassin The guy with the big Sword is a Minotaur Champion, a General Minion.[/quote] yah, my bad....
Nice work, [e digicons]k1[/e] to you, Teseer Oak certainly seems like the toughest general, so far, and he does alot of damage. Probably means his minions aren't as useful, but I like him too...now if only we could be playing with him in Beta 1b, sigh :P
[quote who="ToxDrawace" reply="25" id="1928620"]wait wait WAIT. I thought this was for Beta 2? Beta 2 isn't out yet! I demand a recount![/quote] just calm down...we are still offering a Space Pony as the grand prize for guessing Beta 2's release [assistant can be seen in background, sneaking along with a giant butterfly net]
ahhh ok, just didn't want to get your hopes up Looking forward to playing with you guys :)
The winners of the betting pool on release date for 1b are *drumroll* Wagnard and Orkimond!!!! Yay!!! Here's your prize!!!! [assistant trots pink and friendly little Space Pony out on stage, audience gasps and claps] See the small print on claiming your prize below: 1. The contest was actually for Beta 2, so we have to cut your prize in half [space pony looks panicked] 2. As there were two winners, we had
[quote]Their differences on how a country should operate are so marginal as to appear non-existant to anyone not living in the modern western world[/quote] The platform is just the tip of the iceberg. The people behind and below the candidate are where substantial differences and starkly non-populist ideology comes into play. Look at the people a President appoints, the ones he surrounds himself with, the ones who control what information goes to and from the Oval office.&
so this vid makes me wonder if we have our list correct. It features Sedna, Oak, Lord Erebus, and an unnamed samurai DG we've been calling Yoshimitsu, who I think is an assassin..No Queen of Thorns..Did they drop her in favor of Yoshi, and does that make 5 assassins and 3 generals?
One thing we don't see in this vid is Queen of Thorns. Significant?

guys, I hate to break it to you, Beta 2 is when they re-open for new users and that's probably a few weeks away...

At first this video was an excession for me, totally out-of-context problem. I had no idea what I was looking at. In hi-def with pauses, though, we see the following: - Lord Erebus is in, and at 14 -18 seconds in he has little red friend
so let me get this straight....we should be afraid that *Obama* will take away our guns and civil liberties? LMAO The guy who just quietly repealed Posse Commitatus, authorized and re-authorized warrantless wiretaps on American citizens, removed due process in the case of suspected "terrorists" (which at this point apparently includes Maryland peace activists), and hugely expanded the powers of the President to the point where the constitutional checks and balances of government
Thanks Yarlen Is Regulus being replaced with another DG?
[quote]Sedna=Queen of thorns. [/quote] hmmm, I'm operating off Lua files here, but unless the devs have really changed things Sedna and QoT are two seperate DGs. Sedna rides a tiger and has Yetis. Queen rides in a seedpod carried by beetles and has Treants. Did they merge? I'd be disappointed if they went with Occulus over Sedna for release, AFAIK she is the only DG who explicitly heals (although I have no idea where I got this impression) and it wo
last general is Sedna, we think, and yes

The Gamespot screenshots show heavier Minotaurs, Archers, and Priests, priced according to level. I wasn't counting on any creep variety at all, let alone the ability to upgrade, mix, and match. (The only thing that could make this system slightly better imo would be if minion creeps could upgrade through xp as well as simply buying better models. That will reward careful micro and leadership) In addition, each general will have unique minions who augment their parent DG's
[quote]Seems like you buy everything at the Crystal of Health using the tabs.[/quote] including minions, under the star tab :D Also, general abilities are synergistic with minions, awesome Nice work, devs... It's been a good night XD
Thanks, Trigeminal The suspense is [e digicons]x_x[/e] me
That answers some questions, thanks guys XD edit: plus a glimpse of Oak in the screenshot...
