Demigod is #8 at week 3. Still in top 10 i guess: http://www.cinemablend.com/games/US-PC-Sales-Fallout-Feels-The-Love-17481.html Demigod sales is similar to Sins in a recent blog by Frogboy so it should sell 100k by week4. So demigod should have sold 100k by Today.
I had a similar system to the OP and it's just laggy. It's not worth upgrading as someone already mentioned, he has to buy video, mobo, cpu, etc so might as well get a whole new computer. This game does not run well on any single core processor. Dual core cpu came out 3 years ago. The system requirements are vauge but multicore is a must. So most computers older than 3 years will not run this game well. Does this game have low system requir
This one: http://forums.demigodthegame.com/forum/469 10 pinned posts. I think you can combine some of them to make it less than 5. like "you have a connection issue? tell me" should be combine with "Having a Demigod problem? Read here!" "status report" seems outdated. "Retail release to 0-day update" is probably outdated or combined with others.

you are fine, if you have an older version, it won't even let you log on and play.
yea, it's hit or miss, pretty much random if you can get a game or not.
I don't get it, you already said you tried a friend's copy. then you come here and ask if you can run it?? No, your game will be slow and laggy with your specs.
Co-op video talks about Demigod. They seem to like it. http://revision3.com/coop/bbq/ They start talking about Demigod on 12:30 minute.
This idea has been mentioned in the past but worth posting again. Post this again in the Demigod Ideas section and see if they will listen.
From my experience, the multiplayer issue existing through beta. I had to spend lots of time restarting, rehosting, rejoining to get a game going even at the end of beta. All that was said was the multipalyer issues will be better in the next patch or it will be better at release day. Fast forward 1 month after release, I'm seeing the same thing. multiplayer issue will be better in the next patch, it'll get better next week. Same thing as in beta.</
nerf well deserved!!!! Awesome job gpg.
yea, i got a 2v2 with map brothers, it was extremely boring. I'm just staying away from pantheon for now.
Erebus gets the nerf bat. Awesome. /skipintro!!!!!!!! Awesome, i'm sick of it after seeing it for 4 months. especially restarting demigod after crashes.
I don't know if it helps but make sure you forward your ports 6000-6200 for direct connection. pantheon and custom games works for me and I think it's an improvement. Still not bulletbroof or better than other rts games.
Patch impressions. It's better but still buggy. All last week I would give multiplayer connection a 5/10. Today I'll give it a 7/10 Make sure you forward your ports for direct connection. Sometimes I can get a game going in a minute. Sometimes it can still take forever. Pantheon/skirmish is still set to 4 player max so it's boring so I sticked to custom games.
Pantheon and skirmish is still set to 4 players max. I guess its ok but it's starting to pick the big maps like brothers, which is extremely boring in a 2v2 game. please increase the players or reduce the map selection.
no need to flame or ban the OP. we all have the right to ask. The patch has been planned since last week. It's disappointing to see it get delayed again and again.
I think we will get the clan wars, 2 free demigods, fixes and balance changes. Maybe custom mod support, replay mode, extra game mode (tower defense and capture the flag). From stardock side, you'll get better multiplayer support, group joins, statistics, tournaments. I think you'll see a repeat with an expansion pack within a year. The expansion pack would be cheaper $10-20 like sins of a solar empire.
My guess is like you mention, join pantheon together and look at the connection window. If they are not together retry. They won't be enemies because they are on the same side Light.

Yup, go to sleep, wake up tomorrow and you should be allset after a crash.
The in game timer is inaccurate when there is lag or simspeed less than 1. the game slows down and the timer also slows down. It would be great if the timer reflects the actual time spent in the game. A 30 minute game can actually be 1 hour when simspeed is -1.
In the 5 beta games i played tonight, 4 of them are filled with people with negative sim speed. The reason is finally we are playing with bigger maps and more people. It just takes 1 person with low simspeed to slow everyone down. I would think the beta is mostly technical people or maybe they just have slow computers. Please turn down your graphics and sound to the lowest possible if you don't have a computer with the recommended specs.
I have no issues with comcast. Maybe it's your computer and other programs? try a clean install of windows.
