This would be a very interesting development, to say the least. :)

I have to say that the connection issues appear to have vastly improved (at least for me). The past 2 nights I have been able to connect to Panthenon games (although it was a bit laggy). Well done, GPG and Stardock. :)

Hi SyDaemon - yes I was referring to League of Legends. (I stand corrected - it's a Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA)) - Im no sure about the mechanics of whether that is p2p or server hosted or both though. I'm not online much these days - apart from work, I don't seem to see many Singapore hosted games (and Panthe

Ah, thanks for the correction Lugh. I think I probably misinterpreted TB's quotes as relating only to his abilities (fire / ice) as opposed to his back-story. But you are probably right - they do also relate to TB's back story.

I 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 :P 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 1.1 - Continued discussion from Frogboy's Dev Journal in Demigod Demigod Forums

New maps / new demigods and/or interface changes aren't slated for v1.1 ?

No idea :P I haven't tried today's patch yet. In any case, a discussion of Demigod on a Singapore gaming board can be found (particularly for Singnet users) - http://forums.gameaxis.com/showthread.php?t=1515553 It does look like the competition is going to heat up for Demigod - with a new Dota patch released and a new MMO Dota like game scheduled to be released this year.

I have to say there are some great posts in this thread. :) Quoting RegnorVex for truth : [quote]Dissent and "flaming" are not bad things. They reveal problems and perceptions of customers that give a leader an opportunity to improve his product or service. The unhappy customer didn't have to bother posting his complaint. He could have walked away from the product and just given up, and never given the developer any idea that there was a problem. Instead, the unhapy custo

If anyone is interested, there are GPG forums for Demigod - http://forums.gaspowered.com/viewforum.php?f=38 Some of Frogboy's posts (aka Draginol) on that forum are quite interesting. P/S I haven't been online lately because (apart from connection issues), I've been very busy at work. Hope the rest of you guys are having fun. :)

[quote]My own presence on the Demigod forums and journals will be decreasing after v1.1 pretty dramatically as I begin to focus on Elemental.

Kurooon, from what I understand (and it may be wrong), one cannot play on Game Ranger with another player if he/she uses a different version of Demigod. Legit Demigod players (like us) would have upated versions. Pirated Demigod players (who apparently form the majority of Game Ranger Demigod players) would be playing using an older version.

This post caught my eye. I'll let you guess who made the post :P It's quite amazing to see such candour. But the acid test is whether (and when) Demigod works the way its supposed to.

That's one of the reasons I took people off the Elemental project and put them onto this is to help address problems / fix issues on this game. In my opinion, too much "stuff" was licensed and not vetted. If the Stardock/GPG teams can't address these things soon, the game deserves to go down in flames. I know it's a lot lot LOT better now.

I have given some consideration to Game Ranger, but apparently few legit Demigod purchasers actually use Game Ranger. If that's true, that could be a problem.

Question about Orb of Defiance in Demigod Demigod Forums

Quick question about Orb of Defiance. (a) Does its use cleanse negative effects (such as an UB's spit) ? (b) Can you capture a flag with its use (i.e. when one is invulnerable for 5 seconds, do those 5 seconds count towards flag capture) ? (c) Can one use other trinkets / consumable while invulnerable (i.e. use a flag capture lock while invulnerable) ? Thanks in advance for any replies.

[quote]Modern triple A titles typically require some months of patching to stabilise, more so if the game is multiplayer-centric. One month is actually still young. I'm not advocating that games should be handled this way, but given the immense complexity of modern games, it takes a live environment to fully find out all the kinks.[/quote] I think we have to call a spade a spade. Demigod has a wonderful concept - the game play is fun and relatively balanced, the graphics and s

Reply to Minor update in Demigod Journals Demigod Forums

Just out of curiousity, are there proxy servers in Australia, and are they turned on ?

Reply to Greetings From Singapore in Demigod Demigod Forums

I tired it both ways - with and without the "proxyserveonly". I couldn't connect either way to other Singapore players - I could enter a game lobby, but both ways there was a Singapore player I couldn't connect to - and it was random. I.e. Attempt 1 - Got into game lobby with other Singapore players - couldn't connect to player A. Attempt 2 - Got into game lobby with other Singapore players - now cannot connect to player B, but can connect to player A. It
