years ago i lurked on the forum you guys are talking about. but after they opened the flood gates it became as much a cesspool as any other gaming forum these days. it's a real shame because it had a lot of promise. the last time i visited there it was just a bunch of idiots substituting snark and animated gifs for actual discussion.

[quote] i'm sure it's possible to get this game into the 6/10-5/10 realm with balancing and decent AI but it's not going to be what brad is hoping for. i must admit i always found it a bit odd that galactic civilizations 2 got 93%, it's more like a 75% game in my mind. perhaps it was released during a particularly dire time for strategy gaming.[/quote] so your opinions are worthless in other words.
after the masterpeice that was civ iv, i cannot believe anyone would defend civ v. can they name a single fun improvement over civ iv? at least elemental has a future. without a radical design, civ v is going to be remembered like civ iii.

Hmm. Lots of games. Do people buy games online? I can see why Impulse supports the applications and utilities but games?
[quote who="gmc2" reply="6" id="2647872"] If you read the thread title and still opened the thread then you have only yourself to blame. I was expecting some interesting news worthy something or another instead I get a havta download some crappy flash wantabee in order to see it. blatant and bold if you ask me, shame on you guys.

[quote]I will definately be more picky. They just can't cope with companys like blizzard, relic etc.[/quote] huh? stardock doesn't make demigod. don't you mean vivendi, thq?
[quote] See, what a lot of people don't understand is why Stardock tried to do this. When Sins of a Solar Empire launched, multiplayer was 100% functional. But a lot of people were complaining that they couldn't host because they didn't read up on what ports to forward on their routers and how and thus the MP was "broken" according to them. Ironclad and SD got understandably fed up with that, and included a similar method of connection in a patch that allowed hosting/connecting withou
i'm going to guess 90. boils down to how much people like single player. dawn of war 2 got 85 and the demigod BETA is better than dawn of war 2. (cries)
You're an idiot. I don't mean that in the general flame sense. I mean as in the literal low IQ definition of an idiot.
demigod has turned into a great game. i agree with those who wish the dota nuts would either accept that demigod isn't dota or leave. i have played dota. i did not find it fun. others like dota. that's fine. but this site is about demigod and it's evolved into a fantastic experience.
i like demigod more than dota. besides the dota community being made up of punks, dota's idea of depth is to pile on details that require memorization rather than skill. demigod is much more approachable and has better mechanics.
innociv, isn't there some other forum you can go troll? every post i ever read from you in any forum is always complaining and sayng how bad something is. demigod is fun. deal with it.
i played beta 3a some but last night played beta 3b. spectacular game.
[quote]Do you think that Impulse will ever go client-free like Gamersgate? Put another way: people are reluctant to use another client, even one that's unobtrusive like Impulse, because they've already got Steam. That's the general vibe I get when I discuss Impulse on other forums (assuming they know it exists). So maybe Steam's already won the client war and the best way to compete is through a simple website that offers .exe downloads? Maybe even send an email when a game in your account is
my connection to the internet is through a evdo cell tower. i get around 30k per second download speeds. without impulse i woudln't be able to get these updates. i wasn't able to download the big patches because my connection isn't reliable enough. i'm out in bfe so getting a good connection would mean driving 20 miles to the city to find some internet cafe. so you guys bitching about impulse need to get a life.
[quote]I dont hear any complaining about Stardock products,[/quote] you should read the comments after every mycolors theme release. complaints that there's 'only' 100 icons or complaints that they think there should be more gadgets. from what i see, hyperdesk is getting off easy.
i think their website is deceptive. they never give real looking screenshots just dressed up ones. if stardock put out a $15 suite that only had 26 icons, people would be ripping them a new one. if a stardock suite lacked per pixel skinning they'd get blasted.
[quote]Just guessing, but I bet that most Impulse users installed to play games. Wanting features that many are already used to on another system should be expected. This wasn't a post meant to bash Impulse. I want Impulse to succeed, otherwise I wouldn't have posted at all.[/quote] you would guess wrong about why people installed impulse. i installed it for object desktop.
hah. you haven't lived until you've been barbed wire trapped into your own base in company of heroes.
ai surrendering would make a huge difference in single player games. they'd cut the game time in half in a good way.
i think it is relevant if they gave sc a 9 and sins an 8. sc had big problems at first with desyncs. i remember them well and so do many others. it tooks until the first couple patches to get it reliable. just do a google on supreme commander and desyncs and you can find lots of talk. supreme commander is a good game but like the op said, definitely not better than sins.
just getting warmed up. never played kohan. but this is the closest thing to the original moo 1 but in real time. master of orion is a great game. i see a lot of that in this game.
stardock and fb have always been such fanboys of deviantart. why? the da comparison shouldn't be with actual media sites. how does it compare to flickr and other free public image upload sites?
