Recommended Posts

iv been playing the beta all weekend and rele liking it so far. wondering what kind of single player they are going to do, whether its purely instant action, or if theyll include a campaign based mode which would be interesting.

the different game modes on multiplayer seem very good and all work well. loving the game so far, cant wait til full release!

They say it isn't but I think it might be. Same premise. This will probably blow DotA out the water though. This looks interesting to say the least.

Well, they did say DotA is but one of the inspirations behind Demigod.

Offtopic: http://leagueoflegends.com has 'Guinsoo' (Dota developer before IceFrog took over) working the game design.

I would stay clear of this game for a long time, i bought it because i liked the AoS playstyle. This is a game that pretty much is meant for multiplayer, and as it stands multiplayer is VERY dysfunctional. It takes 10-20 minutes JUST to get a game going for most people, and then people will disconnect during load, and be replaced by AI's that suicide or by no one, and you find your self facing 3 people solo..its been going on since release and its not improved one bit

I don't think it's that bad. I seem to be able to get in game with in a few minutes. Now learning how to play, and play well might take a bit and would work best if you are playing with a friend who already knows how too. And this game was always going to be multiplayer based, so you should of known that already.

I really wanted to love this game and I hate that I'm disappointed by it. As I said in a previous thread about how I could go afk for 5 minutes and come back and there would be close to no change. I'm not sure how it could be made differently/better but I really have tried to love the game.

I agree, I tried getting into it, but I just couldn't. It's too much stacked against new players. No matter what I tried I always got my ass handed to me because unlocked items (forgot what they're called now) give to much of an advantage at the start o f a game. If felt like that if you didn't start playing as soon as the game went live you were always going to be at a huge disadvantage.

Then again.. maybe I just sucked, which is probably true..but either way it was hard for me to get into it.

    • Microsoft fixes one of Excel Copilot's most frustrating limitations by Usama Jawad Microsoft began integrating Copilot into Excel a couple of years ago and has been upgrading it with new functionalities since then. While some changes have been controversial, Microsoft is hoping to win over users by allowing them to be more productive via Copilot. To that end, it has now announced a Copilot improvement that may actually be appreciated by people who use it regularly. Excel customers often use the Copilot prompt box to issue instructions to format and customize their data, but it can become quite tiring to keep repeating the same instructions again and again. Microsoft now allows you to define Copilot personalization rules for formatting, naming conventions, formulas, and report styles. These can be accessed via Settings > Personalization, where you can explain your rules in natural language like "Always format currency in USD with no decimals", and just let Copilot take care of the rest. Microsoft is going a step further in this direction by allowing you to set workbook rules too. These rules are stored as a .Rules sheet, and are preserved while the workbook is shared. This fosters collaboration while making sure that standard rules govern the Copilot editing experience across the organization. Other advantages of this capability include pointing it to specific examples, defining dynamic formulas, and referencing an entire sheet and asking Copilot to infer rules based on that. You can leverage this feature by opening Copilot in Excel, clicking on "+", and selecting Create workbook rules. If you have an existing .Rules sheet, you can simply start listing the rules in column A as well. Personalization features are available to all Copilot in Excel users across the web, Mac, and Windows. Meanwhile, workbook rules are currently being previewed for Windows and Mac customers on the Insiders channel. General availability is scheduled after a few weeks, but a concrete date is currently unknown. Overall, the Excel capability is quite similar to ChatGPT's memory features, which allow you to permanently store items in the AI model's context window.
    • Imagine you still haven't discovered Total Commander that is doing all those things for three decades already...
    • This sounds like underneath the nice marketing spin, either someone at Adobe got tired of their lazy devs and asked Microsoft to help them sort at least some of Adobe's ancestral spaghetti code to make it go faster, or Microsoft wanted Adobe's crap to run better on Windows to make it look better when compared to Apple, so they offered to intervene. Either way, GOOD.
    • My favorite file manager for Windows 11 finally gets a long-requested feature by Taras Buria Files is among the best File Explorer alternatives for Windows 10 and 11. This free app is packed with all sorts of features and conveniences, but there is one crucial feature that is still missing—Tree View. Fortunately, the latest update in the Preview channel finally delivers it. With version 4.1.4, which is now available for download in the Preview channel, developers implemented Tree View, a new mode that displays folders in an expandable hierarchy. Windows 11's stock File Explorer always had this feature, but it was nowhere to be found in Files until now. Starting with the latest preview update, you can expand each drive and its nested folders without leaving the current location and then open the folder you need in the main view. To try Tree View in Files, update the app to the latest preview version, then click the small arrow next to a drive to expand its content. The developers say they are rolling out Tree View in Preview first to gather feedback from users and improve the feature before bringing it to all in the stable channel. In addition to Tree View, Files 4.1.14 improves the Windows Fonts folder. You can now preview each font directly in Files with no need to open the built-in font viewer. For now, these two features are only available in the Preview channel. For those using the stable release, developers recently released version 4.1.3, with improvements for the built-in tag system, on-demand folder size calculation, and plenty of various fixes. You can check out the full release notes here. You can download Files from the Microsoft Store (paid version) or its official website (free).
