Reply to SUPERMAN -or- BATMAN in Everything Else Demigod Forums

The Dark Knight Returns was written by Frank Miller, and is non-canon. It wasn't exactly a secret that Frank Miller didn't like Superman, anyway. It's a great graphic novel, and I don't like Superman either, but it's pretty clear that there was a lot of bias on the author's part if you read it. My favorite super hero is Jamie Madrox: the Multiple Man. If you get the chance, read the Marvel Knights miniseries Madrox: Multiple Choice. As the She-Hul

[quote]Windows 7 is nothing more than Vista SP3[/quote] It's comments like that that make me seriously doubt all the other 'facts' you come up with. There are a significant number of reviews that talk about how the latest build of Windows 7 works much faster than Vista. On the Apple side, they even admitted that Snow Leopard is essentially an upgraded Leopard.

Win record doesn't mean everything, but that doesn't make it mean nothing. For a sufficiently large number of total games played, it means plenty.

[quote]I don't understand why, for currency 2, you don't get twice the benefit of currency I. I'm referring to at least 8g/tic, or possibly even up to 12g/tic for having both upgrades. Wouldn't that make it worth it? It has to really deliver something since it's available so relatively late in the game and for a significant cost. It just seems like the scaling of some of these upgrades just aren't worth it to come up with viable alternative strats, less Giants.[/quot

In a 3 person team, Currency pays itself back to the team after 5 minutes. It pays itself back to the purchasing Demigod after 15 minutes. 4g/tic * 0.5 tic/sec = 2g/sec 2g/sec * 3 demigods * 300 sec (5 min) = 1800g. edit: You're right, Retroromaniac. Don't know how I screwed that up. I'll fix it. If this calls into question my earlier math, I can post the spreadsheet I made if you like, if someone can provide a wa

Currency I is at 6 min 40 sec (WR 3). Currency II is at 13 min 40 sec (WR 5). Currency III is at 20 min (WR 7). Again, per my calculation, it's 3 min 20 sec (200 seconds, or 100 tics of gold mines) per War Rank. War Rank in the game is gained at every 810 War Score on default settings. On Prison (there is only 1 gold mine flag in the middle), on 3v3, Gold Team gets 18854 total gold (6284.6/Demigod) and the other gets 18688.5 total gold (6229.5).

I worked this out for the Exile map. That is, there are 2 gold mines at each base, and 2 gold mines to be captured in the middle. I assumed War Rank will be earned at a flat rate on both sides (3.33 minutes per WR), and that the Gold team will control the gold mine flags about 3/4 of the time. Both teams will get Currency I immediately, but Gold team will buy all subsequent Currency ranks as soon as they are avaible. For a 3v3 match, after exactly 30 m

How much gold/tic does each gold mine give? How many tics are in a second? How long does it usually take to gain 1 War Rank (on average, assuming even kills/flags)

Pyradius: At the end of a match, there are two tabs at the bottom of the end results screen. I forget what they are named. One of them has a breakdown of who earned what favor accomplishment. There are, among other things, gold, kills, kill streak, damage, reinforcements (aka creep killed), and so on.

Out of the things this game needs, I don't see something like this being very high on the list. The graphics are already impressive, the ambience of the differnet levels is diverse. I wouldn't really like 'foresty' because I wouldn't want things (like trees) potentially blocking the view from my camera angle.

I hope some sort of arrangement is worked out to get those Demigods and maps into release. I'd hate to see a good game like this dry up because of lack of content.

Reply to Breaking Winner Keeps Winning in Demigod Ideas Demigod Forums

I've won a game in which the opponents were beating us from early on in kills, war rank, and gold. However, my team maintained a higher level through creep farming. We were able to come back and win by reinforcing our towers and using them to kill the enemy demigods. This was on Exile. We held the choke point and they never took our health flag. War rank was close enough so they only had Giants about 5 minutes longer than we did. That said, I agree that

Sorry I didn't read many posts in this thread. I would not pay for new demigods and maps. I'd probably just quit. I like this game, but paying extra for games I already bought isn't in my budget. I think that the planned 2 demigods at a time is fine. Frogboy mentioned a Demigod 'pipeline' - I hope this means we can expect to see Demigods come out at a much faster rate once they get chugging. While I do also
