Reply to Cancel Beta account and refund in Demigod Demigod Forums

You've offered no reason for wanting to cancel your pre-order. You are simply arguing whether you have the right. Since you purchased the product under Stardocks terms, then you are subject to the conditions they have established regardless of what other companies do or your perception of what should be. You paid for a full product and you will get the full product. By pre-ordering you are also eligible to beta access. The question is

Reply to Demigod Beta 1-A preview in Demigod Journals Demigod Forums

Again, I could care less at this point as we are early beta. The game in its current state (beta 1 folks) is not meant to be played competitively. There should not be so much focus on flag locking at this stage. This is an obvious cry out for either taking it out temporarily to shift the focus of the gameplay, or nerf it to the point that it does not play such a key role. Flag locking would then be re-evaluated for a later beta depending on how the gameplay develops with it

Reply to Demigod Beta 1-A preview in Demigod Journals Demigod Forums

If flag locking is so controversial, then just take it out. The only reason we're still discussing flag locking in place of strategy for capturing and holding a flag is because there is a flag locking item that is relatively inexpensive, long duration, and difficult to counter. I don't believe the focus of the game at any level should be on flag locking. The focus should be taking the other players base, with capturing flags a key role in that.

Reply to Spore in PC Gaming Demigod Forums

I went ahead and bought spore in spite of the DRM, in spite of the mass of complaints etc etc.... and well.... its not that bad. No, its not by any stretch an intense hardcore game. I'm not sure if it ever was meant to fill that niche. It falls more along the lines of SIMS then Civilization. Its a nice break from my other games (currently, COD4, DOTA, NCAA 09, Soul Caliber, God of War, Demigod Beta, and Sins). Spore fits nicely with the Wii theme.&n

Reply to Regulus in Demigod Ideas Demigod Forums

If you get the 2 damage items (+65, +200) and max your bottom 10, you do more damage per second with a regular shot than you would sniping since sniping has a slight charge time. Add a few more attack speed items, and you can drain an AI rook in little time (I say AI, because any decent player would hit you with their boulder, hammer slam you, then slap you a few times for the kill). So yeah, mines, snipe, AOE nuke, etc are all distractions.

Reply to REMINDER: BETA 1 is NOT supposed to be fun. IF you find it fun, you should seek help immediately! in Demigod Demigod Forums

umm... its sorta fun. Its like playing a game of solitaire for me. Fun when I'm in the mood, but there are other games/things I'd rather put my time towards. Its definatly not at the crack cocaine level that DOTA is for me (i'm in rehab, I swear). I suppose if I were playing with a group of friends it would be more fun though we would probably need to set up some house rules before the match. I recognize the game for what it is, beta 1. It runs well

Reply to Joining a game in-progress in Demigod Ideas Demigod Forums

I'd like to see how well the AI is coded as the game develops. Personally, I'd hate to jump into a game mid-match to take a leavers/disconnected players spot. In many cases, that person left because they were losing meaning now you get to joing a match where the other team has the momentum. Would be nice to get back in a game you previously left just because of a lost connection, or other crash/error.

Reply to Putting the Rook in the Rook (Here me out!) in Demigod Ideas Demigod Forums

The rook already seems to be the favored child of the developers. He was likely the first Demigod produced. He's featured in most of the screen shots and takes a good chunk of the trailer. Based on the other Demigods we know of and the role the Rook fills, he already is the largest model, has the most base hit points, highest base damage, and of the 3 in Beta 1 has arguably the most diverse skill set (long range stun, aoe heavy nuke, drop towers, eat structures, and mounted

To me, its like the difference between starcraft and nearly every othe RTS I've played including C&C, SupCom, DOW, Dune (way back when), Sins, etc. In starcraft, every race is very unique. Sure you may say the races have unique things about them in the other RTS, but the unit functions the same in the same category across the board. There are slight differences (maybe one race has more hit points, maybe one has more damage, maybe 1 is faster), but they serve the

Well at least he made an effort to play the beta and come on the forums to make a post. Since he will not read the other posts, and maybe there's a chance he will come back to read this one, here are a few things to remember. As Kitkun has said, this is beta 1. Many of the features, demigods, maps, etc have been removed. Gas Powered Games and Stardock wished to see how the game would run on a number of different systems. Thats it. Balance, UI, Items

No Game Guide, its still beta. It would be in constant alteration and thus is reserved for when the game is nearly completed. View control - press spacebar and move your mouse. There you go. FPS - check your graphics settings, decrease if needed. If your still having big problems, post your dxdiag. Skill selection - already suggested but thanks. Movement speed - appears to be part of the balance that is still in progress. Too early to te

Reply to [Gameplay] Flag locking. Broken or not? in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

Instead of locking, make it a slower capture time (Subject to balance). Perhaps more than one flag lock could be placed at a time (limited 1 per demigod per 5 minutes or such). More Demigods would offset the slow effect. Example 1. You captured the flag and put down your 1 flag lock which has a 5 minute timer and a 5 minute cooldown (per player). An enemy demigod comes to capture. He has to spend twice the time to capture the flag back because of

Reply to Putting the Rook in the Rook (Here me out!) in Demigod Ideas Demigod Forums

Can't let everyone see him, unless he can see everyone. As LOS is shared among allies, then that pretty much negates Fog of war guaranteeing that every team would need minimum 1 rook.

Reply to (Bug) Multiple items in use in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

In this area, items are more patterned after DOTA, then WOW or other RPG's. In DOTA, you can have whatever combination of items in your inventory. Some do not work together, some are unique, but if you wanted to have 4 great axes when it is apparent that your hero is carrying around a staff, then so be it. There's quite a bit of supsension of disbelief since obviously DOTA creators are not able to code in each item in as a graphic, representation. I'd like to see Dem

Reply to Statistics in Demigod in Demigod Journals Demigod Forums

Achievements are great. I understand where innociv is coming from with players in matches purely for the achievement (screw the final outcome), but I really think they are the minority. COD4 has a thorough achievement/challenge section. Even if I enter the game with the attitude of "I'm going to work on my headshots with the MP5, it doesn't matter if I win or Lose", I almost always find myself getting pulled into the game and fighting fiercely for the win, not just the headshots.&

Reply to Rook improvements in Demigod Ideas Demigod Forums

ah, but no one has really talked about throwing the boulder. This sits well with me. I really dislike everything about the boulder skill right now. 1. 5 second stun 2. 10 second cool down 3. stuns everything in a path 4. super long range (beyond FOG even). Somebody really likes the rook (the other 2 current demigods have no where near the tailored skills, IMO). If he threw the boulder instead of r

Reply to Balancing the characters in Demigod Beta Feedback Demigod Forums

Remember Killer Instinct? It was an old arcade fighting game in the Street fighter genre. The thing that really set Killer Instinct apart was the combo's. You could get these killer combos of 60+ hits, if you knew how to execute them. As the opposing player, you may as well just walk away once a pro starts into his combo. Sure, they had combo breakers, but even these had to be timed perfectly to get the freak off of you. My point is, if we buff all
