The problem here is people have grown to expect betas to function more like a demo of the final product than an actual technical bug fixing stage. A lot of companies do betas that are nothing more than marketing stunts. This is a real, actual, beta build. If you are not comfortable TESTING something that is incomplete (the new AI isn't even plugged in) don't download it and wait for the final release. As to the current state of features, it needs more wo

[quote who="davidjc_af" reply="8" id="2777659"] Quoting Frogboy, reply 5What is happening specifically in battles? I.e. it is just crashing or is something happening at the time? the CTDs seem to be related to special ability usage in battle. For instance an air elemental uses it's special ability in battle. I see the start of the animation (hand go up in the air) but then it CTDs right there on the spot before it finishes. [/quote] I'm seeing the exact same thing. &nb

Right now you can only upload maps, the others aren't enabled. I think the eta was 1-2 weeks for quests and campaigns, at which time I would imagine they'll patch the mod tools.

Brad was kind of back and forth on what to expect of the initial campaign. What I gathered was that it would be primarily demonstrating what the mod tools can do (the whole campaign was made with them) while doubling as a tutorial and kicking off the first chapter (or book). This game is set to grow organically in a way I haven't really seen before. No doubt why it's getting so much criticism right now. What we've got is a framework and some content with a lo

Ah. That explains why my injured 4 man group turned into a single soldier with the strength of 4 men. It does seem to be more of a graphical glitch. My single soldier hit just as hard as the original group.

I assumed this was done for balance reasons but it has bugged me since beta that children mature faster than puppies. Of coarse going for realism means your sovereign has to age much faster or your children much slower. I'm not sure either scenario would be more desirable.

[quote who="OMG_pacov" reply="9" id="2707391"] Certainly would have been interesting. But, that said, I think demigod shaped up to be a great game... they just never ironed out a few things (well, more than a few, but oh well)... anyway, that said, very much looking forward to this... if it really is more from the mind that brought us demigod, can't be half bad.[/quote] Certainly.

I'm buying it the day it comes out. The lead designer is Scathis (John Comes). Demigod was his baby but he left to form Uberent midway through development. Demigod ended up going in a different direction and I've often wondered how it would have ended up if he had been able to stay through till the end. MNC, if not a spiritual sequel, is definitely a close sibling to DG. Scathis has also hinted that a port to PC is very likely. Probably hinging on t

[quote who="Rincewind57" reply="9" id="2687542"] Quoting dolphan13, reply 5No one else has this issue? It's still doing this through the past two updates. My PC is rock solid, I have no problems with any other games. This game shuts my machine off within 5 minutes of starting it. I find it hard to believe that the response I got from Stardock is that my PC is bunk and it has nothing to do with their game. I'm supposed to start replaing parts in my PC in hopes this game eventually works?

I had the exact same issue through pretty much all of beta 2 and 3A. I too assumed it was an overheating issue but monitoring my temps showed I wasn't running any hotter than other games. PSU could be failing but I doubt it, I'm running a high end 750W psu, and again nothing else triggers it. I just figured it was a nasty bug that would get sorted out. 3B seems to have fixed it for me though. I've played this build for several hours now and had n

I've been a ghost on these forums pretty much since the beta started. Just quietly playing each new version and marking the games progress. I felt compelled to post my thoughts on the current state (3b) of the game. I know there's still a lot of work to do but the game really feels like it's coming together now. This version marked a huge improvement in stability for me. Prior to this I was experiencing hard crashes (not CTD but a total shut down of the machine

I appreciate the update Brad, this has put me at ease regarding the future of DLC for Demigod. I'll keep my fingers crossed that you guys do determine there is a decent market for new maps and such. I'll definitely be buying.

[quote who="goodgimp" reply="38" id="2506281"] The Xbox version was overrun with Halo kids. I don't think any of us want to play with that crowd. Oh, absolutely.

I was with you right until you said, "dodge amulet." I assume you meant the Pendant of Grace, which is actually a fine favor item if you're playing a dodge build. There's a solid LE build that relies on that favor item. Bmans and Chirms mods are great though, couldn't live without em.
