Reply to Teamspeak or Ventrilo? in Demigod Demigod Forums

[quote who="Freche" reply="3" id="2168958"]I have not used vent or teamspeak with demigod yet, but in my experience the sound is way better in teamspeak. [/quote] That's not my experience. The codec ventrilo uses is much better than teamspeak's codec, allowing much truer sound decompression/sample rate ie. the voices you here over ventrilo are much truer to real life than the voices you here in TS. As a result, there are like 3 possible voices you can hear in TS. Those

[quote who="Random_Guy" reply="16" id="2168991"]I don't think the concept is OP, but the execution may be slightly too powerful. Frankly, it doesn't take very long to get through the towers, capture the flag, and lock it. This isn't really that much of a problem. The lock lasts just about long enough for a creep wave. Again, this isn't really a problem. The problem is that once the lock is worn off, you can lock it again. This may not sound like a prob

Reply to Erebus is OP - end of story in Demigod Demigod Forums

I've played against ridiculously strong torch bearer more often than I've played against ridiculously strong erebus. Ridiculously strong erebus doesn't come about until late game when he's earned at least 20,000 gold (enough to get the 6000g boots, 6000g gloves, and a mageslayer 8000g). I've seen torchbearers who can 2 shot you with their fire ball and ground pound thing, move faster than erebus, and have 8000hp to boot. Everyone who is claiming him to be overpowered has to look at hi

Reply to Making flags uncappable in Demigod Demigod Forums

Uhh this is a completely fair strategy, and in fact the only map you can really do it on is cataract. First off... do you have any idea how much money/time it takes to produce giants? If you've let them get giants, chances are you've already lost. this strategy minimally needs catapults before its even remotely viable. Second, cap locks only last 30 seconds. That's enough time for exactly 1 full wave to get through the portal. If you don't respond to them taking your p

Reply to Rock paper scissors or all equal? in Demigod Demigod Forums

It's both, as each demigod/assassin has several different tech trees they can choose to go down, some tech trees work better than others, and on top of that there's always citadel as a back up strategy. Don't underestimate the power of the citadel. There may be some demigods who have slight advantage over others, but not significantly enough to the point where a good player can't adapt their strategy to counter.

Reply to Please nerf Lord Erebus and Oak in Demigod Demigod Forums

So here's the deal with erebus (and oak to a lesser extent). Erebus is decent, but in order to for him to be godly (which he can be) he needs to be an extremely selfish player who only spends money on himself. There is an easy counter to that, and that is.. spend money on your army. Erebus doesn't really have good AoE (mist really doesn't do very much damage). If you're playing against a crazy erebus simply pour money into your army, and rely on your giants to take down his citadel.

Reply to [WAI?] Regulus can snipe unlimited range in Demigod Technical Support Demigod Forums

I haven't had the issue so much with TB, but deffinately with regulus. I don't know if its working as intended, but he deffinately does seem to have infinite range. In fact, he can sit in his base, while his partner sights people in the middle of the map doing ridicerous damage. I think that's a little ridiculous if it is intended. If it's not intended, please fix it... eventually. D:

[quote who="cybane" reply="1" id="2159559"]ok i found a temp fix that seemed to work but iam not 100% sure. I have this issue and my points are in the negative. What i noticed is that after a few matchs your characters reset correct... Well when they do and you see that switch to a different one and then so on and so forth. This should give you a steady flow of favor points and keep your playing skills with most characters on point. But like I said I truly dont know if this is that reliable I

Or is it a good idea to spend them whenever we can afford something in case they dissappear? [/quote] It doesn't matter if you do or not, because it just deletes all the items that you have, and the money you spent on them sends you into the negatives. I'm currently at -750 favor points.

Reply to Favor Points Vanished in Demigod Technical Support Demigod Forums

So I have been playing all day, and finally got my Favor points out of the negative, bought a few new items. I went to play pantheon again, and on my second match once again all my points and items were deleted, and once again I was in the negatives. This is a bit ridiculous. Out of curiousity will those points ever be returned? Not having any favor points or favor items puts you at a huge disadvantage. Please fix the bug or whatever it is.

Favor Points Vanished in Demigod Technical Support Demigod Forums

So I noticed the other day that all my favor points from custom games dissapeared. This seemed to happen the first time i played pantheon. All of my items also dissapeared except for the blood of heroes, which launched me into the negatives for favor points. So not only did all my prior purchases and favor points disappear, but now i have negative favor points. Also, I didn't seem to receive any of the favor points from the recent pantheon matches I played. Maybe it was because

Reply to Favorite Vasari Cap. Ship in Strategy Sins Forums

I think the evacuator is deffinately a good starting ship, because with the quick expansion it allows, you could easily build a strong economy and either go down the warfare tree or decide to rush to Dark Armada. The only thing is, if you do decide to do the latter with the evacuator, it leaves you a little bit crippled military wise, where as the carrier is an excellent support ship for your fleet in every stage of the game because of its multiple strike craft and its repair cloud. Also, there

I think my favorite 2 vasari cap ships are the Skinatra carrier and the Evacuator in that order. Carrier: I am a big fan of the carrier for a starting ship for a few reasons. 1. Their strike craft make it easier to fend off against LRM spam strategy (which so many people seem to do these days) their healing cloud is an amazing ability that almost always gives you the edge in a fight, and their replicate forces technique is just an amazing and convenient. I will usually bui

Favorite Vasari Cap. Ship in Strategy Sins Forums

So i've been playing around with the vasari cap ships lately trying to figure out which ones are the best for which strategies. Obviously, they are all good in their own ways, and each one seems to be geared towards a different style of play. What is your favorite cap, and for what reason? What strategy do you use with this cap? What is your build order, is it your first cap ship or do you build it when you have more funds? What ships do you pair it with?

Reply to Trade posts? Refineries? in Strategy Sins Forums

I found it on another forum, but it seems to be accurrate. However, I have found what might be a bug in the game (or intended) in that my trade port chains tend to cap out at 4, I don't know if this is supposed to happen or not. (Trade ports will report their longest chain when you scroll over that planet). I believe refineries effecting planets also report back info in this way. If not, it will be under your economic tab ingame.

Trade port income is based on your longest line of connected planets with tradeports. The longer you chain of tradeports is, the greater your income will be from each individual tradeport. x - planet with a trade port o - planet with nothing o-x-x-x-x-o This means your longest chain is 4, so each tradeport will generate that much cashflow according to that multiplyer. If you place 2 on one planet, it give the same amount of cash flow that your other tradeport on th

Addendum. I've tried hosting a game without going through my router, and connecting directly through my cable modem. We still had the same problem so it can't be router related. Any idea what would be causing this bug?

Also let it be said, the problem to my knowledge (being said friend) is specific only to sir tex. I've never had this problem with anyone else I host games for. In fact, in a game with multiple players, tex will be the only one to drop, and then the game will progress normally with all of the other players.

Someone gave me some good advice in an earlier thread like this. I was having the same issue where I was not hosting through a router and all of my anti-virus firewall software was turned off, disabled, or configured properly. I was able to fix it by downloading a program called CCleaner and giving my drive a through cleaning. As it turned out, I still had some old symantec (norton) network drivers installed on my computer from when I had had nortan installed a few years back. CCleaner
