[quote who="Azrailx" reply="2" id="2158740"]yeah its a nit pick i noticed the same thing to but wut do u proprose metacritic do, and this would affect more than just stardock...[/quote] I'm not talking about any other game than Demigod, Im purposing metacritic reevlauate what a C is. I'd buy a game with a C rating, I would almost certainly pass up a game 50/100. Others might too.

Demigod is rated as a "c" on 1up. Metacritic has that rating as 50. I can understand they use A thru F grades and a C is half way between, hence 50 but their grading system is akin to school where: A=100-90, B=89-80, C=79-70, D=69-60, F=59 and below. If i was reading the 1up review, i would interpret it as in the 70's. Stardock and GPG might want to look into this to both raise the mean metacritic score and loose the lowest review (by 15 points) on metacritic of their

Let's say The Rook was fighting on the dark side, he should have darker bricks and maybe red mortar. Or if TB was on light, his armor could be gold or silver. The demigods appearance should reflect what side their fighting for in skirmishes where they jump to the other side.

Demigod pirates, if you enjoy the game you should buy it. $40 may seem insignificant to a corporation, but as in democratic elections, it adds up. Purchasing Demigod will support 2 companies (GPG and Stardock) who have confirmed a dedication to improvement. It will encourage updates and expansions. It will lead other companies to follow suit. It will help in bettering a product you already enjoy.

Thank you stardock and GPG for creating a game I haven't put on the shelf and forgot after a few play throughs. The single player game is a great primer (and challenging enough at higher levels to maintain my interest) for multiplayer. The multiplayer comes in short bursts of entertainment that is perfectly suited for someone who doesn't want to spend hours playing a game. A stumbled release might have persuaded some developers to jump ship and cut their losses, but if

[quote who="Solyaris" reply="5" id="2142654"] Quoting Zubaz, reply 3 However, the single player game is fun and educational. I'd buy it now for that and be even better when I played with others. Says mr. bias! I must confess that I am tempted to buy it now, however with all these issues I am also tempted to pirate (I know...) the game until some of the bugs and issues are sorted. I do want the game, I just don't want to spend more

[quote who="kryo" reply="2" id="2137982"] If the game is hanging after the intro vids or when going through mutiplayer menus, there is nothing wrong with your install. Those are due to the excessive load on the pre-release servers being caused by the early Gamestop release and the many pirates. We're hoping to have the production servers up tonight or tomorrow, and likely on different IPs so that the pirates will not be able to bog them down. [/quote] Thanks

I'm happy that Will is leaving a big corporation, it sounds like his vision for spore was killed by EA and it was reanimated by EA into what it is, then there's Sim City Societies... Hopefully EA survives, it'd be terrible to have more people unemployed.

[quote who="Chucrute" reply="7" id="2131137"]I'm concerned about this subject too, Supreme Commander runs fine in my pc, i hope Demigod does too [/quote] I'm running a nvidia 8600mgt 512, 2 gb ram..., vista home premium 32 bit, 2ghz dual core and the supreme commander demo runs fine, and the demigod beta ran even better (and if i ever upgrade my ram, even better than that).

A favor item for the general that would make minions immune to stuns and slow downs while increasing health and armor. OR A favor item where minion attacks slow down the opponant. EDIT: It would increase the usefulness of minions, encouraging more variety and less non-minion'd generals play style.

[quote quoting="post"] ...When stunned by Boulder Roll, Mass Charm or Freeze a Demigod becomes immune for twice the duration of the stun... [/quote] Does this affect the shatter mechanic? Will it just not freeze him? Edit: Some very nice changes in there too!

I had a 2 v 1 (2 ai vs me), pretty fun game. I was level 20 sedena with lvl 9 erebus and lvl 10 tb. By that time, two auto attaks then a pounce and they were finished.

I've found that Erebus's bite ability wont work. It's cooled down, I have enough mana. Erebus wont walk into range, and if in range will not bite. Really throws a wrench in the works of my swarm/bite/stun/bite/auto or damage wand/swarm/bite combo.
