New Demigods prepare to go out to the public

By Frogboy on October 17, 2009 1:44:30 PM from

The two new Demigods are getting close finally. And we’re very excited to start playing with them. Since we’re going to want to do some “play testing” to nail down the balance before they end up being foisted out on everyone, we’ll be releasing an update to Demigod in the next couple of weeks that will allow us to add these new ones to a person’s Demigod account. They’ll be able to play it online in regular games with others and we’ll see how they work out. As we nail down balance and such we’ll expand out access to it until everyone who has Demigod can access it.

Where does all this hate come from? I've seen some cheaty money grabbing moves by game studios in my time and the amount of hate does not even come close to this. While Demigod is just fine and is even GIVING AWAY Demigods.

tl;dr Celmare shut up, you don't even give arguments for your hatepoasts.

totally agree: has anyone here experienced the money-vacuum The Sims 3 Store?

or perhaps an exorbitant monthly fee to play an MMORPG?

the list goes on...

however, i did notice that after updating the game, my framerate dropped to low levels, and was unchanged by reducing graphics options. (although this might have been cased by something else, as a game that wasn't working recently started to work) i tend to update things in groups so i can't be certain that the game update caused the problem, and i play many other games so i don't always notice changes immediatly.

(troll removed)

id honestly love to see you working with a engine like demigods and produce faster and better results

Well, at first the only people who will have them will be people from Stardock and GPG. From there, it'll be largely people who volunteer and have Ready to Play set up so that we can get ahold of them to try them out.

If you don't already have Ready to Play, sign up on that page with the email your Impulse account is set up on and we'll add you prior to the Demigods being ready for handing out to people.

I signed up for Ready To Play, but there is no available download link...

You get it via Impulse. You need to activate pre-release versions, in order to see it. If it's not there then, then you manually have to add it (with your key) to your account.

Quoting ScythianUA, reply 118omg...did not they produce them until now?Oo

it is actual ridiculously =/

this game will begin to be good only after 20 DGs...and they only do only two in a year ??_??

it must them be ashamed for such low productivity =/

interestingly will somebody reminisce this game when will Icefrog produce a new DotA with valve or not?

biggest DotA-copy fail...

ur so stupid i got LoL and HoN ...and everyone picks the same heroes...theres nothing special about having 40 heroes that are all exactly the same as DOTA just with new names and graphix.

p.s DEMIGOD ISNT A DOTA COPY....

Well more or less everyone picks the same demigod and avoid the same demigods. One reason I started with QoT as my first was so I wouldn't be like everyone else. And I truely enjoyed using her, and still will after the little number of things about her that need to be tweaked are.

take off the should pads, it looks way too similar to erebus on my account...let's make things as unique as possible. WOWIII and IV had those nexus games and stuff similar to that with a whole bunch of unique heros, I am more than confident that we can do better. Please don't let this game go....

in my opinion they look very diff...ereb has very buff shoulders this assassin looks purrrrrfect , hes a assassin nice and sleek look at erebus hes thin yes, but hes also very buff omn the armor side of things.

I see you're point in making the character look buff, but why not "more dangerous"?

I'd love it if it where spikes instead of the pads. I do know that he only looks similar to erebus because they're from the same frame work, so I understand that part. Again, spikes!!!

I found the Ready To Play registration part, but I never received a key. I`m "signed up".

Hmm. As a beta perhaps the roster of users is thus far limited?

Ready to play invites get sent out periodically. It's not real time.

Looks good, indeed. Some other screenshot of it with different camera angle or, if you will, non-that-frontal angle, would be much appreciated. Looking forward to this new DG!

Quoting Colonel_Jessep, reply 28Hmm, I send my request for Ready to Play to you when Frogboy posted about it the first time. Haven't got it yet...

I'll try again.

check ur email? im sure you have... i have 1 for my and 5 for friends in my email if you would like one?..

http://www.stardock.com/products/readytoplay/regrtp.asp once you have the cd key this website will explain step by step how to install it.

for all of you who are having trouble with ready to play and you cant be botherd reading through the post....

I've been playing a bit of LoL. And I had played a bit of HoN too. In my opinion, I like HoN the least, and Demigod and LoL both have their merits.

My biggest beef with LoL, the Ultras being too powerful, has been scaled back it seems. You don't drop in a single hit anymore, which makes for some more interesting skirmishes.

There are 2 other things I like about LoL. The Meta game with persistant 'summoner' levels, Runes, Talents, ect. It's a nice costimization option. The other thing is that the Creeps are mroe then just Fodder. They'll do signifigant damage to you, they take more hits... There's is just less of a varaity compared to Demigod.

Then of course Demi has all the things that make it uniqe, Flagging, Favor items, upgradable creeps, more robust and Specable heros. (LoL heros will always have the same skills no matter what at max level.)

I would like to see Creeps be more of an obsticle in Demi. I havent tweeked with the game options for it much yet, but maybe if there were more options for it too. I know you can make them stronger, but then you'd have to make the towers stronger too... Can some more additions to options there be made?
