if sounds are the only thing you worry about, then you're mightily easygoing. Let's just say that if anyone choose to, they could bring your pc to a standstill, attack the dg server or even get you to jail, depending on your countries laws. In germany some asshole politicians want to implement a regulation that immediatly starts preliminary proceedings against you just for opening certain websites in your browser (that's supposed to protect someone from child pornography, I'm

Reply to Exile: The Worst Map in Demigod Demigod Forums

[quote quoting="post"] The reason this map is terrible is that there is only one way that leads to the enemy citadel. That path is easily cut off and right next to their health crystal.

Lags after latest patch in Demigod Demigod Forums

Played 4 games online after the 6-10-2009 patch. Every single one suffered from massive lags. It's not that the ping of others was especially high (although my chatting coplayers claimed otherwise), but the game was stop'n'go. On the positive side connecting to games never went as smooth before. Anyone have similar experiences ?

[quote who="Lugh" reply="8" id="2255936"] Quoting CitizenKane2, reply 6I have to agree that the ending for the Torch Bearer was a nice twist - I was expecting a god of destruction instead. I guess that was taken up by UB I do like the back-story for the DGs, and I sometimes wished that some of their voice animations could relate to their back story (beyond Senda asking her cat for protection).

Reply to Demigod Update on 6-10-2009 in Demigod Journals Demigod Forums

I get into skirmish games quite fast and often. But 4 out of 4 games had incredible lag .... stop'n'go games. Wasn't my fault, I rebooted after the second game. Might be bad luck in pairing up with the wrong guys .... but then the successful connections might haven been lucky, too.

Reply to Unclean Beast - Best Favor Item: Essence of Magic ! in Demigod Strategies Demigod Forums

[quote who="Shadow_Avenger" reply="1" id="2255259"]I haven't tried this, but in terms of inventory space, you're saying this is better than just getting a Vlemish helm, then Anklets or Blood of the Fallen for favor?[/quote] Yes, because this thing allows you a mana intensive playing style all the time without having to heavily invest in mana items. EoM scales while the BotF bonus diminishes over time (it's still great though).

Torch Bearer - The god of .... MERCY ??? in Demigod Demigod Forums

Just won a tournament with TB on hard and saw the victory animation. Ok, I know TB's tragic lore but that ending surprised me a bit: He gets reunited with his dead beloved and sheds his anger and thirst for revenge. Thus he becomes the God of Mercy and Reconciliation. I kinda expexted the usual cheesy "... and a reign of terror swept over the world ..." thing. Nice.

(BUG) TB Ring of Fire ends prematurely in Demigod Problem Reports Demigod Forums

Using Favor item Staff of Renewal , which grants a 20% cooldown reduction bonus. Ring of Fire has a length of 7 seconds and a cooldown of 7 seconds. However, you can't cast the second Ring of Fire while the first one is still active. You see the animation, the ring flares up, then douses again. The spell fizzled but the cooldown timer resets, making wait again for 7 seconds. And I think you still pay the mana.

Arcane heroes use their mana pool both for spells and ranged attacks. Another tactical choice, although that choice is eas

[quote who="ChromeWeasel" reply="2" id="2253797"] Those are good points but the OP still did a good job. It would be very productive of you to do the research yourself and add it to a cool thread.

Reply to DotA vs Demigod in Demigod Demigod Forums

Demigod can support height levels, too, but doesn't offer maps right now. Once they do the strategic possibilties on those maps will be most interesting. E.g. Rook can't jump down a (relatively) steep slope, but UB and Sedna can climb it. And while they can't climb down cliffs, Erebus can bat swarm down. Interesting prospects, but if the height levels are too large the maps will lose their clearness.
