Reply to Some newbie questions from me in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

You'll have to be a little more specific. What DG are you playing as, what build are you using, and what AI difficulty are you playing on? The hard and nightmare AI get buffs, which would make them level faster than you. But I'll try to answer as best as I can for now: 1) Killing creeps(the guys who spawn from the portals) is the best way to get experience early-game rather than killing other Demgods, as they seem to give you more. You can easily get to level 2 by capping a flag and k

Maybe it doesn't start until 11:59 pm on the date it's supposed to? I honestly don't know for sure, I haven't played Pantheon in a long time.

[quote who="masterkang5" reply="2" id="2288427"] what im getting at is there is no good or bad players. there are only fail stratergies depending on the format you like most[/quote] Um...no. If you continously allow that Regulus to kite you over his mines, if you continously pick fights with the DG that killed you 3 times already, then you are a bad player, because there is no sort of strategy good or bad in that situation, only a plain lack of common sens

[quote who="twifightDG" reply="12" id="2288422"]Aye, I'm just jealous $40 is premium price over there Actually, the irony, one of the reasons I bought this game is because of it's low price. Can't go wrong much with games only costing $40.[/quote] Ugh, I used to play console games, which are $60. And that's not including tax. In fact, the only reason I haven't bought a console game in awhile is because my Xbox 360 got the red rings like 2 months ago and I haven't bothered

[quote who="twifightDG" reply="10" id="2288412"]As you could have figured reading my post I'm not from the US. Prices for games here will be the same in euros as they are in dollars, which at current rates is about a 40% increase alone. That's why the EU gets screwed over and I said the US is spoiled already. Also, the best-sellers tend to be a bit more expensive still, because they sell anyway. I have to admit that the €55 for CoD WOW isn't the cheapest price around, but I go

[quote who="twifightDG" reply="8" id="2288398"]Also premium price? Demigod was/is 45% cheaper than other popular games, like Call of Duty WOW. But I guess the US is spoiled already when it comes to pricing in general [/quote] Meh? That would be true if you were comparing it to the console versions, but the PC version of Call of Duty is $50, and I'm pretty sure it was the same cost at release. So Demigod's cheaper, but not by 45%, although the retail version of DG

Reply to Snipe Damage: Who knows the down low? in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

You're right, it's unclear if the range bonus for Snipe is determined when you target someone or after it actually hits. If it's the former then the limit is 1000 damage, but if it's the later the potential damage could be nearly twice that on larger maps. I'll try testing it in single player, although I doubt I'll get favorable results with the AI.

Okay, apparently I need to clarify something, because people obviously aren't getting it: No one has a problem with premades themselves. We understand perfectly well that the game was meant for team play, even though the game was released with no support for this. The problem we have is with people who don't announce that they are premades, because THEY are the ones looking for an easy win. No one is complaining about you playing with your friends. The problem is with premades

[quote who="Zechnophobe" reply="11" id="2284019"]Doesn't seem to be reflected in the code you posted, but some cap may exist outside the function you posted.[/quote] The cap would be Snipe's range limit. Snipe's range is 90 yards. Since it gains an extra 50 damage for every 15 yards the max damage Snipe can do is 1000 at rank IV.

Reply to Queen of Thorns - Number of Games Played in Demigod Demigod Forums

Anyways, the only times where fighting QoT seems to be common for me is on Crucible. For some reason the matchmaking system seems very fond of putting me against a QoT + 1 other DG(RooK usually) and then placing us on Crucible. I cry when I get this sort of match-up. But otherwise I almost never see anyone play QoT. The only time I remember seeing a QoT outside the above conditions is in a custom game. Overall I'd say less than 1/10 of my games have a QoT.

[quote who="InfiniteVengeance" reply="10" id="2286967"]Unless it's ignoring movespeed boosts. As in it's 66% of your original base. Original base = 5.0 5.0 + 0.5 (boots of speed) + 0.75 (anklet) = 6.25 It would still cap at 3.333?

[quote who="Aeris130" reply="18" id="2285902"]This is not a "game mechanic" btw, it's simply a case of item A being so sucky that B is always the right choice, against every DG. 3000 gold so I can get an extra 30 wpn damage? I can get that at level 2 with Oak simply by putting 1 point into Soul Power. A "game mechanic" would be the HP items themselves, but I don't think anyone wants them out of the game.
