i was impressed just by the idea of Demigod. i already preordered it only by seeing the trailer. but its good to hear that demigod is like it was promised.

Good to read you, i've already pre-order and you confort me ^^

(sorry for my bad english)

I can't wait for teh Beta as well, the sooner it comes out the better!

Thank you so much for comforting us eager preordereers

But now to the important part, was The Fairy (the Plantgirl one) in the Beta?

I don't think the PAX beta will be the same as the beta we will see at the end of this week. I expect at most 2 demigods (probably 1) and 1 map.

Remember this is only to test whether there are technical problems like drivers / direct x conflicts

The PAX Demo had 4 characters (the Assassins, not the generals) and no maps--By no maps I mean that they had a special, simple (kind of vanilla) map.  They said that they gernerals would also be playable in the beta, but did not say explicitly that they would be playable on Thursday. However I had assumed that. 

They really impressed me with the Rook.  That guy has incredible animations.  He has 3 towers above his torso and one has a wizard in it who will cast spells that can be amplified through a kind of wizard's tower, and another has archers that will shoot enemies,  This is all going on as you're doing your regular attacks.

PAX had 6 characters including the opponents, they had 3 playable charecters, Queen of Thorns was in the PAX beta as an opponent, but here units were strangely absent. The rook dosn't have a wizards tower from what I know, the spells you cast were all the rook, you might have been thinking of the tower of light you can have the bounces the other tower of lights. And they had two maps, the waterfall one and the lava one.

In screenshots the Rook fires a light beam from one of his towers.

I also read that the generals' units were incomplete animation wise and so were absent.

There was an upgrade that gave you a tower of light, which is probably what they were confusing that with.

I was under the impression that there were going to be 4 characters and all of the skill trees and most if not all of the items were going to be in the Beta.

The PAX demo I played from my impression was not the Beta version but that the Beta would be more fully featured. The PAX playable was just a build for the show.

Rumor also had it that the beta would be availble possibly on Thursday. So lets keep our fingers crossed!

Beta has been planned for thursday for a while, the beta will *Eventually* have evreything, the earlier betas will probably have less than the current pax version.

Yeah in anathor post they said the Beta will have MUCH less, and is not supposed to be "Fun" but to test the viability of the game engine. In other words its to test to see how well it runs. But if the beta is one tenth of what I saw in the trailer it should be fun anyways

Interesting Cooley as that was not the same impression i walked away with from the booth. I hope it is more than just viability, that will be a let down from my PAX experience with it.

From the post i got this info from, the FIRST beta will be simply to test the engine on a large vaqriety of pc's and will not encorporate a whole lot of the game. the version at PAX is more complete then the beta.

*This info is not 100% but i believe it to be accurate*
