[quote]The fact is, people shouldn’t have to configure their routers to play a video game[/quote] Thank you Frogboy, well said. To be honest, the Stardock employees that were replying to posts saying they didn't see the problem with requiring users to forward ports, following by links to websites such as www.portforwarding.com. I am now relieved that someone at Stardock is finally admitting that a new approach needs to be taken. Thank you for update. &n

Reply to 40 minute to 1 hour games in Demigod Demigod Forums

One of the big reasons games last so long is because it seems that the time estimation is based on people playing the game appropriately. I don't mean to be flaming people, but... if you are... A) Pressuring towers early and often B) Spending gold on team wide upgrades... new creep units, more creep damage/armor, building upgrades C) Build your team with a good cohesion of characters (ex: Sedna for support/healing, UB for DG/tower

If my college blocks Peer 2 Peer connections... how do I play? srsly..... in Demigod Technical Support Demigod Forums

Hey there Stardock.... I play and love GPG's game... my brother and I preorder'd it when it preorders first opened shortly after PAX and we were able to play together through online means such as hamachi and the like. Now that the online components are actually "working" we are trying to play... however, his college blocks peer 2 peer connections or its firewall is very unforgiving.... he can play games like WC3/DoTA without any issues. So what is my brother supposed to do?

[quote who="Melchiz" reply="6" id="2144880"] Quoting droper66, reply 5 I think it is unrealistic to require router modification as a requirement to play a game online. The average gamer is not a network technician nor do they want to go to that trouble. Seriously? Port forwarding is often necessary, especially with bad routers and P2P netcode. There are hundreds of PC games that require port forwarding. Yes, it would be better if Demigod

Reply to War Rank in Demigod Stardock Forums

That is correct, I would rather that number be my current xp/requirement for next level... and have war rank displayed elsewhere prominently so I know when we are about to rank up and head to the base.

Reply to War Rank in Demigod Stardock Forums

I would like to see a better representation of what your current war rank is, and how close you are to achieving the next war rank on the UI. Currently, it shows how many points you have, but the number needed for the next rank is not displayed. Also, it is displayed in an arbitrary place, (on your XP bar?). I thought the patch notes said this was changed, however, when I logged in and played a game or two I noticed that my War Rank stuff was ontop of my XP bar still.
