Demigod includes multiple game modes including Conquest (destroy enemy Citadel), Slaughter (Kill N Demigods), Dominate (gain the most victory points), and more.

Controlling portals is crucial to victory as that is where reinforcements come.  If you control an enemy portal, you also gain experience.

Despite the incredible graphics, the Demigod engine is very efficient allowing it to run smoothly on older hardware (this screenshot was taken on a ThinkPad).

* ah I see Unclean Beast at both Forces of Light and Forces of Darkness. This means all demigods can be played regardless of which Forces you join.

 * Also that guy with pointy ears in one picture is the Vampire Lord. This means all demigods can be played!

* There will be 7 maps be playable according to one picture!

Looking forward to Beta 3!

I'm wondering if that's just a skirmish game - as opposed to a tournament game...If so we haven't had confirmation one way or other...

Nice Screens

 

You mentioned:

I installed the Beta before and my system couldn't bear it (although it should run at a AMD Athlon X2 3800+ , 2GB and ATI Radeon 9550 with 256 MB). Since the ingame doens't just lagged but show me some weird textures, I gues its about something with the graphic card. Will their be some updates with the graphic cards supported by the game or do I need a new one ?

An ATI 9550 isn't just an "older" card, it's absolutely ancient.  You will need at least an ATI X1650 really.

I think what actually happens is, regardless of who is placed on what team (anyone can fight anyone), the team scores online are between the light demigods and the dark demigods.

Example:

first match of the tournament is Unclean Beast (dark) and Regulus (light) v Oak (light) and Regulus (light)

the teams don't actually care what alignment they are.

Lets say at the end of the match the scores are:

Unclean Beast (dark): 105

Regulus (light): 110

Oak (light): 25

Regulus (light): 25

The online score between light and dark would be:

LIGHT: 160

DARK: 105

I believe that this is how it is going to work, but I could be wrong.

ToxDrawace that sounds like a potentially good idea and would solve the problem of this only 4 unique DG on each side problem. Hopefully they will use that sytem...or maybe change to it?
