Would be so happy if this E3 had some surprise...

Healcat > All!

I would suggest that all the players can get at least uberfix 1.05 by pressing the update button or even better that it would be implemented right from the start. I would be fine if they need to get the other things from the forum. (though it would be an improvement to have the other mods as well).

How about pressing the update button and get redirected to pavoc mod package if the latest version is installed? That would be nice. Because I could host my games and be sure that everybody can enter theoretically. And the others that like to use buggy games (maybe to use exploits) may be be fine with that.

DG2 or whatever is not my concern for now since I´m relatively new and would like to play DG as least as bugfree as possible.

But how about a warning to everybody who is redirected directly from the game? I mean, it all about law issues, isn´t it?

Of course, if they would still be bugfixing/updating the game all would be fine. But since they won´t, they could make it possible that at least the bugfixing and UI mods are available for everyone not even for an english speaking person. I can´t tell the russians that don´t speak english how they can get Uberfix or it would be difficult at least. 

Don´t know... But if I read through the Uberfix log I would really like to have these bugs fixed. The one way or the other.

Ok, so I´d like to see a patch that fixes the known bugs because it make more sense if it also costs money to go the "mod-way"

I could imagine that some people don´t like to use mods, even if they´re just fixing bugs (met one online who said that he knows about that mods but don´t like them). Furthermore some people just won´t get to the forum or are able to understand english.

Frogboy also mentioned an expansion pack to think about.

Well, I don´t know about the selling numbers of DG. The recent ones would be interesting, I guess.

But I´m not sure, what should be the content. A lot of things that come to my mind are about balance changes concerning GD and items. New maps would also be cool. Well, but that's not enough for a real expansion pack, i guess.

Maybe some downloadable content for a few bucks would be ok. I think it would be no good idea to overdo it with DG... Just my thoughts now.

I'd switch it to a F2P model like League of Legends uses. Really the game is pretty good, the only thing it needs is more players and more frequent map/champion updates (which presumably with more players would get more resources).

Surely they could implement mods like uberfix as an official approved patch, and then when further updates are made by the authors of that mod, they can ask SD to add that to the patch. I'm not saying open the game up to be modded the shebeezes out of, but it seems these guys have done mountains of work for demigod for free, surely give them some credit and implement their mods as patches, then if they come up with something better, implement that.

Or ignore DG until it dies...... Problem with making an awesome game full of problems is that the people who see it's ptential will continue playing in the hope against hopes that it will never die.

GPG seems to be responsible for patching and so on.

But there never was a word again, so I think they decided to be quite on that topic.

I can't imagine that it is such a big thing to include the Uberfix data into the dgdata file.

I'm wrong there maybe, but I think it's just that GPG gave up any support on this game (except for selling it).

So it's just up to us honor the great work of some community members and use Uberfix (and the other mods as well if you like) in the games we host.

Yeah, you're right, I don't get tired of that.

They are not doing their job, regardless if simple or not, imho.

That my imagination is limited on that topic (and will be for the at least near future) is of no doubt.

But what else can I do, but to highlight it over and over again? At least I feel like doing something, regardless if it's making sense or not. So it's more for my personal relief, because I don't think GPG or whoever is responsible, will really do anything.

This is what I want someone to do or be a part of. It may sound like reaching for the stars, but if this fails at trying, why even bother with this thread. If it's done with the demigod the way it is now or demigod 2 is not the topic issue. That something should be done is! My idea from another thread:

Dear Maulkin and whoever has an interest in a future of Demigod,

So many before you have tried, cried, begged for future support since the game is out till most recently. I'm not saying we should stop asking whoever might be in charge right now, but we must keep asking so they see different and new people show a lot of interest in the years. So write that letter and send it to whomever it may concern.

However, what really could help demigod is a business proposal to different video game companies like Blizzard, Microsoft, EA Games and many other  smaller ones that are out there. Send it to everyone. This game is with no doubt unanimously one of the best games of it's genre, if not the best (when the bugs and connectivity issues are put aside). In several weeks this game will gain thousands of gamers with a publicity campaign, a free to play model, and minor bug fixes and better online support. In several months this game would grow to a real esport game with millions of players around the world. In between half a year and a year this game will become and ESL title and stand right next to StarCraft II. With a great support team probably even faster than that.

I mean look how crappy LoL looks and feels in comparison to Demigod? Don't give me wrong LoL has it's strengths and is a fun game to play, also on a high lvl. But what really matters in this world is the support and publicity of a game, more than it's quality. That's why crappy Browser games are played by millions. So if demigod would just get that (a hard working team) everything would almost work by itself because of it's high-end quality.

It might just be too late for that though, depending on how good Dota II is. However, Demigod could be the perfect counterweight to it with its unique graphics, arenas, epic atmosphere, demigod mechanisms, and highly strategic platform and game speed.

This would take a lot of effort and research though. Questions would be: How to contact the giants and small video game companies? Also the legal ways, that whoever is owning demigod right now might have complications within? How to write a business proposal? What to do if a little interest is shown etc.

But if anyone is a specialist in business affairs, has a lot of time in it's hands, or just loves the game too much should just do that. The best option would be if a couple of people try this effort together: creators, fans, and current owners.
