Gas Powered Games is hard at work on Demigod v1.01. These are done separately of the recent updates Stardock has done to put in its own connectivity library to help the online multiplayer experience.
Here are some of the things already being tested:
I don’t have an exact ETA as there needs to be a lot of testing on this (next week maybe). But so far, it’s looking pretty good.
Regarding this, I believe there's a key that does this when held (Ctrl maybe?), but it would be awefully nice if they were DG only by default, and targeting minions required the additional key press instead.
yay! Glad to see the patches are comming!
Or a toggle option "highlight demigods." What a great idea!
The DG refusing to cast until moving bug I have found is so far guaranteed for me when I try to use an ability after a DG has moved through my own. My friend has tried this aswell and had the same results. I'll give an example:
-I move within attack range of an Unclean Beast with my Erebus.
-I start melee attacking without moving my DG.
-The Unclean Beast walks directly through my own DG.
-I try to cast Bite and nothing happens until I physically move him and cast it again.
This has happened 100% of the time on the few gods I have tested it on Queen of Thorns, Sedna, Erebus and Unclean Beast haven't gotten round to the others I imagine there will be no difference.
I believe you're correct about it control forcing the enemy DG target, but I disagree on reversing it. I target reinforcements with abilitys far to often to be comfortable with that.
FYI I just posted a mod which fixes this: http://forums.demigodthegame.com/353332
I've sent the details of the bug to GPG so hopefully they can fix it in a patch since the mod won't work via Impulse.
I think erebus is the worst with bat/bite, although every dg has a way to bug out, unfortunately.
Since this post mentions the click-to-move bug and its causes, I thought I'd link the bug report for an issue very similiar, arguably identical, to it: http://forums.demigodthegame.com/353368
cool cool cool!!!!!!
So this patch wont fix the issue that some ppl are having that prevents them from playing demigod multiplayer in any mode ???
Everytime i enter a pantheon game ( if im lucky and patient enough) the game is populated with bots and no human players ... i saw around 10 topics about this issue just on the two first pages of technical support, most of those topics are empty ( including mine) ...
Maybe im wrong and GPG doesnt handle the multiplayer issues, becouse if that was the case, its pretty retarted to work on better stats reporting when the game is still unplayable for many people even after the 10th update
Favor points are still broken.
They will fix it in this patch. My achievements are buggy too.
I haven't bought any new favor items and my favor is up to 2920...until anhklet is toned done or givin to everyone for free I don't see the reason to use anything else on my tb build. I'll just keep saving.
Keep up the good work!!!
i hope they will nerf erebus in an soon patch
will ping spike be addressed?
so is this patch fixing the stats?
Move through any other demigod in any way you choose ..then try using an ability.. you can't until you move somewhere else.
Easy to reproduces with the boots of 50% boost to move on damage, Erebus' bat ability (you can't ever bat through something and then bit immediately without moving first)
Xhero, they allready did nerf Erb; his bite; quite a bit. It's Monday, any news on 1.1 comming out today?
I have, ONCE, used heal on a minion (purposely). The other 99% of the time, I'm tring to heal or target a demigod. So trying to hold down the ctrl key (Hand Twister, Left thumb green) to target a demigod (which is what you want the vast majority of the time) is really off. Holding it down to target a minion, now that makes sence.
I'm not sure what your reference to twister is for; ctrl is easily reached for the most common (wasd based) position of the left hand.
It is easy, if, you did'nt break your left pinky last year; and usually have to use your left thumb instead; and since you can't remap your keys, you have to play "Hand Twister". . .
So when is this coming?
Well they can't really adjust a game just because someone broke his pinky! (I'm sorry for you for that though, it must suck, I once broke my wrist and I felt utterly useless. I hope it heals okay for you). But I do agree that targetting DGs should be the default and ctrl for minions. I do realize there are some ppl that do target minions a lot, but most ppl by far only target DGs.
