Suggestion: Notification Sounds

from Elemental Forums

Mabey it is just me, but I tend to generally miss when my spell point research bar fills up. Especially with it starting at 15 and getting 2-3 points a turn, Mabey some kind of sound when it fills to max so you know when to spend it. Or the ability to select a spell research topic like the tech tree and when it completes it tells you.

Or mabey a "Stop being an idiot and pay more attention" response :O lol

But a suggestion.

Actually while I am thinking about it a City level up sound would be great to, mabey a fanfare like sound effect. And it needs to be a SFX not a music thing. While I know alot of people like game music, alot of us (me at least) hate game music and it is the first thing that gets turned off, Even before I change the aspect ratio.

Also while on the subject, and turn notification splash screen like the one in MoO2 would beawesome.  I know you guys love your little GC empire tree in the corner and it isn't going away. But bleh, out of sight, out of mind.

I've had the same problem in not noticing when my spell research is filled up.

Both MoM and EWoM use the same mechanic: every spell takes X spell points to research. In this case, the MoM system is simply better.

Select the spell you want to research in advance. No need for any notifications, sounds etc. No points wasted.

I guess the devs wanted to have a hard cap in how expensive spells you can get. But the hard cap could also be established by the amount of spell books you have of a given school. You could then either find or research these books.
