Reply to Can we please NOT show our master impulse login names as our SN in game? in Demigod Stardock Forums

[quote who="Morthvargr" reply="8" id="2147742"] I have never played an online game that forces you to publicly use your mater login as your only public ID. [/quote] Everything using Microsoft's Live platform (Xbox 360, GfW), or anything on a PS3. There. A crudton of counter examples.

Reply to Why does Demigod store my Impulse password in a plaintext file? in Demigod Stardock Forums

[quote who="gaping_maw" reply="6" id="2148873"]It does seem odd. The impulse login should be just to buy/update games. Once in games, game logins should be different.. that's pretty standard practise. [/quote] No it isn't. Games for Windows Live, SteamWorks, these are just two examples of the opposite of what you say is "standard practice".

Reply to Retail Requirements in Demigod Stardock Forums

If anything, Steam is the more obstrusive of the two. In fact, unlike Steam you don't require Impulse running to do multiplayer. And if I'm understanding how Impulse Reactor works, you don't even need it installed to do multiplayer (just to update)

Reply to My Performance in Demigod Stardock Forums

Well, I am able to run it at max settings ("High" on every detail option, plus 16x anti-aliasing with my configuration. And the game looks (and plays) awesome! Noticed only two spots it slows down, and those are spots that to be honest I'm not surprised it did that for. Config is as follows: Custom-built Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit Intel Core 2 Quad @ 2.33GHz (4 cores) 4GB Corsair Dominator 1066MHz memory DirectX 10 Nvidia Geforce GTX260 wi

Reply to Download Stuck on 'Preparing' in Demigod Stardock Forums

I'd say just leave it for a while. Near as I can tell, the infrastructure must be absolutely hammered, because it took me 10 minutes to get Impulse to even log in! (Course then I clicked "Install" and the darn thing starts instantly, so now I don't know what to tell you)

The key wont show in there at all until the release date. If you were in beta, the key will show but it will say it's invalid. Just be patient.

You'll be able to download it when Stardock processes your order. That may happen anytime from 9AM onward (their time, not yours).

Reply to UK E-tailers don't seem to think the game's out for another month and a half in Demigod Stardock Forums

It's the same everywhere that isn't America. Atari is handling sales outside North America, and as a result there is a 1 and a half month delay before we can get the game. You can circumvent this by buying directly from Stardock who will ship out the North American version of the game as soon as they see your money.

Reply to Are you happy with the pre order sales? in Demigod Stardock Forums

[quote who="Moonlightknight" reply="8" id="2136475"]Im happy that I was able to obtain a copy on the weekend but I dont see why retailers have to "hold" the game longer if they already have it in stock. I would have liked to see other retailers (Amazon, Best Buy, GoGamer, etc) release or ship their games by last Friday too so we could have more people to play Pantheon with over the weekend. [/quote] Lots of reasons retailers are asked to hold off for street date

[quote who="Sevenix" reply="10" id="2134560"]Soo. wont the people who bought it pre-release just get a "update available" just like we in the beta get atm? I suppose they could still play Singleplayer but still.. [/quote] Unfortunately no. Retail keys are actually valid right now, unlike pre-order keys. Which is annoying, because I really want to download that update so Impulse stops spamming me about it.

[quote who="despairzor" reply="24" id="2134726"]Damn, called in to all the GameStop and EBGames near me and they didn't have Demigod in stock. Guess Canada doesn't get them early yet :[ [/quote] That's nothing. New Zealand has to wait until MAY for stock. And it's distributed by Atari, so we'll be lucky if the stock even shows up!

Reply to Working in a Dual-Monitor World - Need Some Help in Stardock Software Stardock Forums

This isn't as hard as you think. Basically, just get the image you want (make sure it is exactly the size of both your monitors across!) and set the display mode to "Tiled" in the background tab of display properties. That makes the image span both monitors without a single third party tool.

Reply to Where do the Saved Games get stored, so I can transfer to my office computer... in Sins of a Solar Empire Stardock Forums

Yes, except for one tiny mistake - the old Games for Windows specification says that saved games for Vista go in the C:\Users\ \Saved Games folder, NOT Application Data, and the new one doesn't have any requirement at all for that - you can put them wherever the heck you want! If they're claiming it's because of the Microsoft logo specification, they couldn't be more wrong. Besides, Demigod already violates Games for Windows guidelines by having a shortcut in

Reply to Sins and Entrenchment getting tangled on install in Stardock Games Stardock Forums

I've got an even more confusing issue. I installed SoaSE retail from DVD, updated via Impulse, installed Entrenchment, and now SoaSE is missing entirely from Impulse. Entrenchment shows up on it's own though. If I run Entrenchment/SoaSE, it works fine (no crash or anything). But if I try to verify installation, it tells me Entrenchment isn't correctly installed. I assume I'm missing SoaSE updates too. What gives?

I've already emailed stardock support and await a reply. If that fails, I'll be submitting a claim via PayPal using the category for goods not as described. [/quote] I don't think Paypal will sympathise with you, to be honest.

Reply to What New Beta Members Need to do to get the Beta in Demigod Stardock Forums

[quote who="Ke5trel" reply="1" id="1999009"] 1. Beta 2 is available now, so you will be charged immediately upon ordering, as you can download it immediately. If Beta 2 were closed or not out yet, you would not be charged until it was available. [/quote] Oh, well. Weird, I thought if you hadn't pre-ordered before the phase started you had to wait for the next one? Ah well. First time I've ever wished a beta WASN'T available though.
