[Possible Bug] Kitty Charge Achievement Malfuctioning? in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

I was hoping to get some feedback on this. Has anyone, thus far, had any particular trouble unlocking Sedna's Kitty Charge Achievement? The achievment in question requires the player to "Kill 7 Demigods in a single game with Pounce"... Now, I only recently emerged from a 2-Vs-4 Domination Pantheon game where I focused my build around the Pounce skill, and general DPS. By the game's end, I racked up 36 kills, and I could've sworn that every second or third kill (if not more) was finis

Reply to Player Replacement Options in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

Being able to jump into an active game would be a rather desirable feature, particularly for those of us who live in "off-peak" timezones. I expect the situation will improve post-release, but at the moment, I commonly find few (if any) joinable games available when I personally have the time to play. Jumping into an active match and inhabiting someone else's Demigod may be a somewhat sub-optimal way of doing things, but I'd take it over not playing at all.

Reply to Severe freezing/stuttering issue in Demigod Demigod Forums

I too have been experiencing some of the aforementioned stuttering, after having downloaded the most recent update. Not as bad as every fifteen seconds, but it's there alright. I'm getting the problem Andan mentioned as well. I thought the game app had frozen up permanently after I finished my first match there... [e digicons]>_>[/e]

[quote who="Mooglepies" reply="8" id="2107200"]Super cool it may be, but have they fixed the whole "2GB for an incremental patch" problem? I've all but stopped playing this because none of my friends can actually download the game due to their ISP bandwidth limits.[/quote] They seem to have fixed this, yes. Last update for me (3C to 3D) required a download of only 1.2 Megs.

Reply to [SUGGESTION] The AI needs to know terror. in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

Yes, it's probably too much to expect an AI bot to ever rival a good human player as far as strategy is concerned, but the idea of implementing some "fear" functionality into the AI scripts sounds like it would be... well... at least relatively easy to incorporate. They already know that it's a good idea to run away when they have low health. They just need to learn to run away earlier when one or more players with a high kill/death ratio is in visual/striki

Reply to [SUGGESTION] While Dead..... in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

Agreed. I originally wondered why this feature wasn't possible from the get-go, particularly with the skill-tree. I could only guess that they didn't want to give dead players an advantage in being able to leisurely distribute their skill points. But that argument doesn't hold much water for me anymore. If you've played enough games as a particular Demigod, you quickly learn to distribute your skill points in the middle of a full-scale melee (without batting an eyelash) and thus you d

Reply to Skills With Prerequisites in Demigod Ideas Demigod Forums

Mmm. Furthermore, if the devs were to implement more prerequisite requirements for a wider array of skills (We already have SOME high-end skills that work that way, after all.) they might run the risk of creating a complicated and distracting level-up system, that may forcibly draw the player's attention away from the ensuing battle. In a game like Demigod, I suspect that it's probably best not to make levelling up overly complicated or complex. If you're forced to sit down

Reply to [Bug] negative favor points in Demigod Demigod Forums

Methinks it would have something to do with the fact that we are actually spending favour points to use favour items now, instead of merely unlocking them with a certain amount of favour. Perhaps you bought too many different favour items? Or maybe you bought a handfull, and were subsequently hit by an Achievement-resetting bug, thus losing the related achievment/favour points and thus sending you into the red? [e digicons]:|[/e]<

[Bug] 3B Audio Issues in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

I've been toying around with the in-game Pause/Timeout feature recently, and I've stumbled upon a minor bug. If I attempt to pause the game while playing in a match that has Timeouts set to "None", (such as a Pantheon game) Demigod's audio start to act... unreliably. I'll usually lose all in-game sound effects, (Except a limited selection of the voice-over commentator's announcements, and the "heartbeat" effect that occurs when at low health) but I'll sometimes lose the background music as we

[Possible Bug] Achievement Killcount Inconsistency in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

The two images below were taken immediately after a single match, while playing as Sedna. Prior to this match, my achievments had been wiped clean (for Sedna, at least) as per the current favour/acheivement bug, so (I assume) I was working from a clean slate when this happened. Take note of the "Sedna the Exterminator" achievement in the first image. Kill 25 Demigods in a single match. Simple enough... When dealing with bots, at least. [e digicons]:blush:[/e] <a

I support this idea. More than once in recent history, I've had a strong desire to play a match of Left 4 Dead, or any other multiplayer-focused game, but found myself put off by the idea of having to socialize with potentially strange Internet-people in order to get that intruiging and challenging multiplayer experience. That's not to say that I'm totally antisocial. Some of my fondest MP memories are of me laughing my head off with a team of complete and u
