[quote who="clownkill" reply="21" id="2121024"]To the people that say you have to have steam running to play your games, You are completly wrong. I use Offline mode almost all the time. [/quote] I haven't used steam as much as usual this past year, but I used to use it all the time for valve games and I've only ever had problems with Online mode. It always asked me to go online to sign into my account so that I could go offline. What's the point of offline mode if you have to go

[quote who="Daikaze" reply="16" id="2120235"]I think that after a stun wears off the player needs to recieve a buff that prevents stuns for a short period of time (maybe ten seconds).

[quote who="7hyrael" reply="7" id="2120432"] actually steam got some realy good points. the greatest is that it was the first kind of these system[/quote] See, people do that a lot. How does being the first make you better? Directly? Indirectly, they've had the time to get better, but that's all just potential. How does being the first one make Steam better then Impulse? Also, indirectly/potentially, Impulse could have learned from Steam's mistakes.

[quote who="Trigeminal" reply="6" id="2120430"]Voice chat with overlay. [/quote] *ahem* I said dispairzor... :-P yeah, but would that work while using the impulse reactor? and even so, then you wouldn't be in the demigod irc chat, that could be annoying having two different groups (steam and SD) that couldn't communiacte with each other. Or am I totally off base here?

Reply to Will we be able to purchase Demigod through Steam? in Demigod Demigod Forums

why would you want it on steam? You don't even need to open impulse to run it, wheras you'd have to open steam to run it if you went through steam. You really want to add more stuff to have running on your computer that you don't need? despairzor, im curious, what benefit do you get for having it with steam? EDIT: insanetitan totally just ninja'd my post!

Reply to Any hope for another 'real' beta update before release? in Demigod Demigod Forums

[quote who="DatonKallandor" reply="13" id="2120095"]Public Beta? More like "Public" Beta. It's not exactly a case of "wanna beta? Come right in!" which is what an actual public beta would be. [/quote] It's public as in it is possible for anyone to be in it. Anyone can buy Demigod and get the beta, it's not restricted to people who have experience at testing games or something.

[quote who="Gir92" reply="9" id="2118321"] The last I heard it's $5 + S&H. But that was before the price drop, so I'm hoping all we have to pay is S&H.

Reply to [ Item Balance ] Universal Gadget VS Robust Health Potion in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

moko, the point of the universal gadget is that you don't buy it knowing what you are going to use it for. If you know you'll use it to heal, then it makes a lot more sense to get a potion. You are paying extra so that when you are in the midst of battle you don't go, 'dang I wish I could have hit him with one more burst of damage' as your enemy runs back to base.

Reply to [ Item Balance ] Universal Gadget VS Robust Health Potion in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

[quote who="Micah" reply="1" id="2113325"]The potion can only be used on yourself and only to heal. The Universal gadget can be used to finish off an opponent, heal yourself, or heal an ally. It's the fact that it gives you so many options that makes it less powerful than it's potion counterpart.[/quote] agreed

Reply to Why squares instead of hexes? in War of Magic Elemental Forums

I have absolutely no idea how plausible this is, but do we even need a grid? Would it not be possible to give a unit a number of 'steps' and depending on if it is a person or a mount, each step is a measurment in distance away from the unit. I realize that if you want to step onto a specific space to say, attack an army, that could be problematic, but maybe it could be set so that you have a circle around your unit and that anything inside that circle can be activated. Again, I do not

Reply to Ganking and surprise attacks are missing in Demigod Ideas Demigod Forums

[quote who="PossiblyImpossible" reply="21" id="2112271"] I agree, but I also think that it's not always wrong to draw comparisons between the two, since they are similar, whether people like it or not. I think it's worthwhile to at least discuss whether or not the addition of some aspect of DotA (or any other game for that matter) would be beneficial to Demigod, even if the ultimate conclusion is that it would not be. Open discussion is always better than immediate dismissal.

Reply to [WISH] Surrender button in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

I still think that, since it will count as a loss against every player, then every plaer should have to agree, but at the same time, if not being able to convince everyone just leads people to leaving the game instead, that isn't any good either.
