Could use an extra coupon for a 2nd friend if noone has any use for his as well. Thanks in advance.
[quote who="Gallifray" reply="14" id="2215650"] Thats like if I went to store and there was a girl selling cookies outside. I eat one and it tastes like crap so I yell. "AHHH What is wrong with you!! AHHHH!!!! Look in that store at all the companys that sell cookies and why do yours taste like crap?!?!" She's new to making cookies she didn't know what the hell she was doing.[/quote] And so what? People will see noone is buying her cookies because they taste like crap and go buy t
[quote who="Xan" reply="6" id="2215571"] Frankly, blaming it on the user population and saying WC3 is 3rd in franchise with millions of users is a weak argument. What do you think I'm telling my friends right now following your answer? "No, don't come, not enough people to get you a match going in less than 5min". And most likely answer "Ouch, sucks, used to be able to play in 30s on WC3". I would say you need to learn your numbers. If one game has 5
Ironically the pirates helped make huge free advertising for Demigod. It doesn't excuse pirating the game, BUT it seems it had a positive effect. Stardock realised pirates would pirate regardless, but some of them might buy the game, so they went with no DRM and it seems to be paying off slowly, but surely. Realitiy is, some pirates are potential customers.

[quote who="Tidus1492" reply="24" id="2215358"] I somewhat agree but the latest updates of the past week make the matchmaking pretty decent. Also, you can't expect any company to compare to Blizzard. That's like asking a ball player to hit as many homeruns as sammy sosa on steroids. [/quote] So just because Blizzard is that much better, they can't be used as comparison? Kind of a flawed logic if you ask me. Demigod is in direct competition with Blizzard

Random Team 3v3 on Warcraft 3 takes less than 30s to match 2 teams of 3 and without any lag. Just playing evil advocate here, but you get what I mean. PS: Can I dissect that turtle for my experiences? *evil grin*
I swear Tom and Alice must have owned their network teacher at some point to get mentionned in any networking exemple ^^
[quote who="Aezuth" reply="22" id="2211707"]The only Nerf I see oak needing is letting you cancel his HoL when he's shielded. Too many times I've had to slowly work an oak down to negligable hitpoints remaining, only to have him shield up and HoL while continuing to fight. It's ridiculous. He's easy enough to deal with normally, but I do think there needs to be something done to stop this clearly unfair advantage over other demigods (at least the other demi's need to retreat a bit before popp
I'm more in favor of voting for Surrender. If majority agrees, game is ended, if not it continues and anyone quitting will get NOTHING. You must NOT reward quitting. Quitting is a deliberate choice and someone legitimately leaving because he doesn't have time left to play does not care about rewards, he really has to go. Ragequitters are just sore losers, they must not be rewarded in anyway and need to learn to accept defeat. If someone leaves, then rest of tea
I think you meant Surge of Faith, Daniel, not Soul Power. That said, I'm an Oak player myself and in the hand of a good player Oak is very powerful. Penitence might have been a bit overdone in the damage department though. I'd lower the damage done and buff up the damage increase and the snare on target (5% per level for max 20%) to lower spike damage. Oak should be powerful for staying alive long enough to deal his damage, not because of Penitence constant burst with good man
[quote who="danielb23" reply="18" id="2208714"] Quoting DalzK, reply 10 as I mentioned before, if someone casts spit on you when you have a shield on then yes it will do damage, but if after being hit by spit you cast shield it will remove the debuff. Just wanted to note that shield does not remove debuffs until you have the 3rd shield upgrade (level 7). I play oak all the time and the first two levels of shield do not counter spit except to the reduce the amo
Spit is only borderline OP because of it's range, not because of the damage/mana ratio. UB is a melee DG and therefore his Split ability range should be reduced to something just slightly out of melee range at most.
Could do with lowering the range a bit, but otherwise it's fine in my opinion.
Yeah, this needs to be fixed. It's just stupid.
From the organised games we've done, Erebus is still a threat, but not a solo powerhouse killing machine anymore. It feels much more balanced than before. Our Erebus players are actually quite happy with the change and don't feel anything has to be nerfed more or unnerfed. concerning Bite. They do say however that mana regen should be halted while in Mist form.
The biggest sources of lag are unstable connections (ping going up and down) and slow computer. Just try to educate people. Ping is almost never the culprit.
Stop it with everything should be fair and what not. Someone who has been playing for 3 months will always destroy someone who just started with or without Favor items. They just add an incentive to keep playing and are a nice little reward for your efforts.
[quote who="angryandroid" reply="2" id="2208582"]This wont work because not all DG's have healing abilities. e.g. a TB could not get this unless they spent a small fortune on universal gadgets. Seeing as I have seen a few super fast mauler animals in the form of Sedna who do huge damage and win the kills award, no. Sorry [/quote] Irrelevant. Non-healing Demigods do more damage than Sedna and naturally get Favor associated with it. Adding Favor bonus for Healing
Scaled Helm and Vlemish Faceguard. No mana means no ability.
I only buy HoL with Oak and only if I pick up Shield.
There is no excuse whatsoever. If a technology is available, they can simply ask or pay to use it instead of making everyone suffer. Saying they had only one month and Battle.net has been out for 10 years is non sense. It is THEIR fault they wanted to come up with their own thing that's not working. Noone cares if it's P2P or Client/server or a mix of both, people just want to click connect and play. They could have gone with the classic working approach THEN attempted
Amulet of Teleportation is far superior.
