This is my first Stardock beta and I didn't enjoy the gimped betas. I think if there's another beta, demigod2 for example, I'll just wait for release date. Elemental isn't my type of game. I gladly enjoy the open betas that other companies provide even if it's only a marketing scheme.
The digital download version will not be earlier than the stores. Otherwise Stardock will get in alot of trouble with retailers which leads to game not getting stocked. It will be release the same day. Even almighty Blizzard releases World of Warcraft Lich King digital download 1 week after to not offend the retailers.
The demo will be after release. My guess will be 1 month after so 5/14/2009
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="13" id="2097852"]It's a hot topic here too I can assure you. My personal quick fix suggestion is that generals should get more money and then as soon as it's politically (marketing-wise) feasible you eliminate assassins and generals and rebalance them as one thing where everyone can buy minions and such. The minions are very useful if you know what you're doing. [/quote] I know you mention this before bu
http://www.demigodthegame.com/ The homepage is missing the countdown timer in IE7 and Firefox3. But you know it is still there because you can move your mouse all the way to the top and see it with adobe flash. So it's probably just located in the wrong location.
Nope. Wait for release date 4/14/2009
I think it'll be neither game of the year or disaster. More like sleeper hit of the year. kinda like sins
Wow, a patch today? Is today Thursday?
Perl, Ruby, and Python are more like scripting languages. Not good for a beginner. Stick with C++ or Java as your first language. Out of the 3, if you had to pick one, I'll choose perl.
100 is too many and 8 is too little. 12-20 would be a good number. In dota, every game seems a bit different because you always face a different hero and team combinations. In demigod, alot of games are starting to feel the same because there's not much variety in the heroes.
I think the video is overated. I see people like Leeroy doing stupid stuff all the time in WoW.
I also think the preorder should be 39.99 for digital download. oh well, I wonder if the price will change after release.
Same here. I have no idea what you are talking about. In the subject it says Free for all. Which I'm assuming every demigod for themselves. Then you talk about team play and helping the team. Free for all sounds like a great idea for custom maps.
Is it just me or are there less and less people playing the beta everyday? Maybe I'm logging in at the wrong times. It sure looks alot emptier now than 2 weeks ago. Are most people just taking a break and just waiting for release 4/14?
Aggressive move has been buggy since Beta 1. It's been reported before but worth mentioning again. http://forums.demigodthegame.com/336869 It's buggy enough that I stop using it. I do wish they fix it someday.
Click on the score at the top. If you see 0ms ping and 0 sim speed, then they are a bot/AI. So far, most pantheon games are all computer players.
[quote who="Mistralok" reply="1" id="2088818"]It is a business arrangement. There is also a direct link in Impulse to the ATI drivers site.[/quote] That direct link to ATI is because you have an ATI card. The link changes to nvidia site if you have nvidia graphics card.
Yea I notice most people quit right after the citadel falls. This happens in most online games so I'm not surprise to see it in demigod as well. Great statistics website. I really like the game list page, it shows which games I played and who. Amazing.
I'm just wondering why there's a new AMD startup screen. Is AMD paying for this advertisement? Does this game run better in AMD processors? Does some part of the engine/game use AMD code? I'm using AMD Turion 64 processor myself so I hope its better for this game.
Change log is over in this thread: http://forums.demigodthegame.com/342299 I notice there's like 5 frames per second improvement but I'm not sure if this improvement was in 3a or 3 since i haven't checked in a while. The fps improvement is in low fidelity settings only which is the setting I always play in. Medium and high settings are the same fps for me. For anyone who wants to check there fps, hit / on the numpad
Go download it from impulse now.
In the past 2 days, Demigod has jumped up on the gamestats ranking by a huge amount. It was around 56 all last week. Today it is up to 79.2 score and #8 in the pc ranking. I think there's alot of people watcing the ign video which helps bring up the score.
So you must be exited to be the publisher for demigod. I wonder why you wouldn't want to publish supcom2 as well. You mentioned you don't have the resources. But you just opened a new office. Couldn't you just just hire more ppl. Or you can only handle one game a year and next year is elemental. Anyways, I wish there were more developers/CEO in the game industry like you.
My suggestion is to make a 5 v 1 game. Put 4 AI computer on your team so you have a total of 5 people. Then see if you can win. If you do, do 4v1, then 3v1 until you are comfortable with 1v1. I think this is the best suggestion.
Does that mean it's on schedule this time for Thursday? no more 1 day delays?
