Reply to Minimap interaction, self-portrait in Demigod Ideas Demigod Forums

Agreed, such changes to the UI would make the game a lot easier to jump into for RTS players. However, I can hardly consider it a top priority.

It will not be used widely in games, as it isn't a major part of the system. It's like building software around a headset, very situational.

[quote who="Ryat" reply="10" id="2237381"] Quoting idunno116, reply 5I am blown away by the awesomeness of that movie. It makes me wish I had played the KotoR games. Highly recommend playing them. They should be easy to find on Amazon and cheap as well.[/quote] If you've ever played D&D, I wouldn't recommend KOTOR. Sadly, it just feels archaic and railroaded, and it never feels like there are enough options for character development, or levelling for that matter.</

Reply to AI...I thought that stood for ArtificalINTELLIGENCE in Demigod Demigod Forums

Totally off topic, but how much is AI war going to go for? As for the OP's post... Have you ever designed AI? I mean, seriously? Try that and see if it doesn't make you frustrated after a few hours, then come back and tell me that you can do better than what Demigod's done already. And as people have already said, first person shooter AI hardly counts, and in fact has to be toned down so that it doesn't destroy human opponents. Think, basic run script + aimbot = win.</p

Out of curiosity, what's the typical drop in startup simspeed from 2v2's to 5v5s? I assume there is one, provided it might be somewhat small...

[quote who="themadmanazn" reply="18" id="2236931"] Plus the average infection time for their OSes is 15 minutes. Too bad MACs suck worse (not their OS but the lack of gaming + custimization, and if more people used MACs, more viruses would be developed for them). And don't try to convert me to Linux... Macs use MAC OS X which is Unix based... same as linux[/quote] That OS is not as smooth as Ubuntu.

Reply to Demigod in Demigod Demigod Forums

Just a warning, Demigod is loads of fun, but it isn't your average RTS. If you like both RTS style games and RPG's (think, controlling only a hero from Warcraft III), then this, good sir, is your game. Otherwise, I'd advise you look elsewhere.

Reply to Microsoft= Epic Win in Everything Else Demigod Forums

Macs are fail. If you're going to complain that Microsoft doesn't cut it for you, use Linux.

Reply to The Sims; Life in the slow lane. in Demigod Demigod Forums

How strange. I don't even HAVE a sound card and my simspeed is always at least 6... but then, I play 2v2's. And I've got a GeForce 9600 so at least that side of the spectrum is well taken care of.

Reply to Microsoft= Epic Win in Everything Else Demigod Forums

Pfft. The motion peripheral, as it was not created as a main component of the system, will never be used for anything but silly gimmick games. In other words, it's just like the Wii's. And no, just because they can build a successful gaming system does not mean Microsoft is awesome. Windows XP = awesome, 360 = not.

Everyone else stops when they use an ability, I see no reason for UB to be different. As for removing the cooldown on it, I assure you that taking away the 1-second cooldown would do nothing but increase your frustration as you spammed the button.

Reply to A late spring cleaning in Personal Computing Demigod Forums

Might I recommend Iolo System Mechanic? It's legit and it does just about every bit of spring cleaning you need. Or at least, that I need. But I don't do constant porn searches and frequently reformat my hard drive, so it all depends on the user I guess... Anywho, it gets the job done.

Reply to Why is there no magic resist in this game? in Demigod Demigod Forums

Err, this game isn't DotA. CoD is not Halo. Age of Empires is not Starcraft. And the Sims is not Spore. While they all have respective similarities and share genres with their partner, the games are as different as night and day.

Reply to Rage Quitting Solutions in Demigod Demigod Forums

Zakariel, that issue has already been brought up, and strongly opposed by the majority of the forum-going population for a number of reasons. Banlists are fine locally, but using a global banlist is stupid, and leaves you trusting the legitamacy of Joe-chows-on-paste's bans.

Reply to Oak shield + Orb in Demigod Demigod Forums

Err, 3k pots and TB fireball aren't channelled, per se. Channeled spells start their effects immediately, and end them when cancelled or the time expires, i.e., mist form or foul grasp. The 3k hp pot is 'casted', as is TB's fireball, because nothing happens until the character is finished 'charging up'. Either way, such effects can be utterly hosed by any ability involving a stun or even a ministun, eg boulder roll, pentinence, frost nova, mass charm, etc.
