[quote who="DalzK" reply="26" id="2400369"]Am I the only one not excited about these 2 new Demigods? For some reason im convinced at least one of them is gunna fuck up the balance...just because everyone is bugging them so much about it and GPG will be concentrating on SupCom2 and not the balance of them. The Demon Assasin sounds like he could really mess balance up if GPG arent careful. Of course its pointless to talk about balance before we even see them Just a bit worried, thats

Reply to Im Starting To Hate Stats.. in Demigod Demigod Forums

I agree, the stats are pretty much totally meaningless at this point, and ranking especially. I play about 50% pure PUG and 50% with my brother (though most of those are 3v3), so I hardly ever play full-on premade, and as such, I feel pretty good about my slightly >50% win (though I wouldn't call myself an awesome player at all, probably closer to average). I have had a fair amount of PUG games where we beat a PUG stomper group who are all ranked much higher and have an amazing win% when m

Reply to ISP Throttling Suggestions in Demigod Technical Support Demigod Forums

I would leave if that wan an option, but to do so would mean getting DSL. Unfortunately, only Comcast and Qwest are available in my area, and Comcast is by far the faster of the two. I realize that speed often times depends on what you are connecting to, but I have pretty much ruled it out. I have also noticed the throttle with torrents. However, the vast majority of my p2p connections are via games.

Didn't Brad already mention that the new demigod models were taking much longer than suspected (correct me if I'm wrong)? Aside from that, I don't remember reading much on what has been holding it back. Two nights ago, however, Frogboy said in game that they had just recieved a beta of 1.2.

ISP Throttling Suggestions in Demigod Technical Support Demigod Forums

Lately, I've begun to suspect that I am being heavily throttled by Comcast during "prime-time" hours of internet usage. This has resulted in totally random drops during game play (though since the stat-reset I only have 7 drops out of close to 100 games I think) which is very annoying. Has anyone else successfully argued thier case against Comcast, and if so, how did you go about doing it? Speedtest.net shows far higher download and upload rates than what I usually get, and when downloading f

Reply to New Crash since patch. in Demigod Technical Support Demigod Forums

I can verify as I was in the game. One more note about the game: the connection screen upon bjorking the game showed that I had ejected the disconnected player (Kyogiro), but that no one else had. DrSlotch was the first to cntrl-alt-dlt out of the game, and I was second. According to the game list (which may not be reliable; http://pantheon.demigodthegame.com/game/1006789/player/13293/ ), the game continued after

Reply to Solution for Lagproblems? in Demigod Demigod Forums

Is your connection being proxied or are you directly connecting to most players? In my experience, proxied games tend to lag more than global direct connections. Also, one bad internet connection among the bunch (either slow or high-ping) will cause lag for everyone.
