Reply to Pantheon - Can a new lobby solve the problems with matchmaking? in Demigod Demigod Forums

I played a few Pantheons and by a few I mean very few because I constantly ended up in games where a player had dropped, comp stomping matches, uneven pairings (2v1 Domination, YAY!) or really bad matchups (2 tower rooks on Crucible). The experience was so great that I decided to never, ever join the Pantheon queue again and only play custom. In custom you can at least be sure that you won't get teamed up in uneven teams, no AIs (if somebody drops early you can rehost), no stupid maps (Crucib

danomanox, you spent way too much time on php.net... ;) A 320 ping can work for 3v3 games without problems, same goes for 3v3s with one or two proxied players. I would not recommend to allow proxies in 5v5 unless you get the impression that the player knows his connection can really handle it (just ask him nicely and see what happens). What I really dread are the few 'poison pill' players who can only connect to one or two players and turn an 'all green' lobby into a a yellow

Pantheon - Can a new lobby solve the problems with matchmaking? in Demigod Demigod Forums

What are the main problems in Pantheon, why do players drop or leave the matchmaking queue early: - Connetivity: I hate to say it but some players still can't connect to others sometimes despite proxies. It works for 95% but sometimes it won't work for some reason no matter how long you wait. - Friend not on the team: Well, you are obviously in the wrong multiplayer mode then. Off you go to Custom! - Not the right map and game mode: Yes, it's supposed to be random but

bump Please remove the AIs at least from all ranked games. Just to give you an impression: I think the screenshot gives a fair impression of how the AI performs in comparison to a human player. And I'm by no means a 'pro' player. Btw, those were 3 cheating nightmare AIs - not the 'farmable' AIs like Rook or QoT. There is no place for AIs in a competative mat

Reply to Please un-ban Shadow in Demigod Demigod Forums

I was/am admin on two SupCom related forums and both have different rules. I haven't seen a post from Shadow that would call for a ban IMHO. Sure, he has strong opinions and he isn't afraid to speak his mind but as far as I'm concerned nothing he said was meant as a personal attack or not within the limits of reasonable critizism - which doesn't mean he's right btw... Frogboy, please unban Shadow. A ban without warning is a little harsh, even if you were understandably hurt by what he

Quite possible. I have trouble interrupting Sednas healing or other 0.3 second abilities too. On the other hand, if you could reliably interrupt Sednas healing... Speaking of Sedna, I find her Pounce interrupt even more annoying than than Penitence. At least Oak cannot heal all the damage you did every 7 seconds. One interrupted Spit isn't too bad if you have enough Ooze.

Actually, some players can use the interrupps very well. I've encountered an Oak player who interrupted my UB 'Welcome to the party!' spit a few times because he anticipated it. The first time I thought it was luck, the second time I became suspicious, the third time I waited for his Penitence before spitting.

Reply to Looking towards Epoch 3 in Demigod Journals Demigod Forums

First let me say that I don't care much about the stats. What I do care about are fair and good games without AIs. I want to be able to play with PuGs when my friends are offline and in team vs team matches. Then another question I have: Why is Pantheon ranked at all? How can a game mode with AIs and premades/PuGs in the same match have any value for stats? Pantheon also forces you to play all light/dark in your team. This will actually make the outcome of the game more random. How ar

I would like one additional mode: Sandbox : Exactly like Custom but no stats are recorded . It would be ideal for new players, players testing new builds/demigods and doing crazy stuff (5v5, on Cataract, strong towers and creeps...). I don't give a damn about my stats but I don't want to ruin somebody elses stats if the new build I'm testing turns out to be less than favorable.

Reply to Pantheon - Premades, please do something in Demigod Demigod Forums

Honestly, I don't understand why most PuGs prefer Pantheon over Skirmish. Pantheon: - is down for 2-3 days sometimes - you can join as premade team - the light/dark demigod seperation leads to really boring/annoying match-ups sometimes Skirmish: - always available - much harder to play as premade, better chance for PuGs - more variety because light/dark side demigods can be on the same team -

Demigod has so much potential and it would be a shame if it would die because communication between the publisher/devs and the community ceases and important content (team matchmaking, bug fixing, replays, modding...) is released too late. Let me say it again: Demigod has great potential but it needs developer and publisher attention to make up for the unlucky start it had. I couldn't play online for 2 month after the release but I stuck around and waited patiently because I saw progr
