[quote who="tesb" reply="18" id="2471295"]@Thanaeon You could make a fireball like: category: fire damage: 10 arcane damage and fire-elementals would simply be immune to category fire and vurnable to water / frost. You still have only 1 magic damage type, while retaining tactical depth. ... [/quote] I am in favour of that, its a good, easy to grasp middleground. [e digi

The Stardock report 2009 made me hope that you will make games available worldwide, from some point in the future. Does that mean there is a chance that older games like Dragon Age will be made available worldwide?

@FutileEmotion Coming from an analyst background myself i must say that Nesrie has a strong point here. It doesnt matter in this discussion tho, 'cause Frogboys point was something completly different, as i understand.

[quote who="pigeonpigeon" reply="123" id="2424741"] Well yeah. A system like that would be ideal, but as I said in a previous post it is not practical in a computer game! I would prefer a system like the one you just mentioned, really - it allows for much more variety and many more options than different magical resistances does! However, without a human to manage such a system, it would be unwieldy if it even worked at all. Really I don't see why we're arguing at all, because

[quote who="pigeonpigeon" reply="117" id="2424417"] To me that sounds like i shouldnt care about resistance, because i will never know which element i will encounter in the next battle. And since it is so expensive and hard to come by i better should invest in more troops or better weapons then in resis. So, in my reasoning Resistence is useless to care about. You'll never know which element(s) you'll be facing in your next battles? That's pretty short-sighted. One of th

[quote who="pigeonpigeon" reply="102" id="2423382"] ... No, it really doesn't. For one, fire resistance isn't going to save you if somebody shoots you with a blast of ice, or lightning (under the assumption that lightning is air magic, but that can be neither here nor there). So sure, you go ahead and give all your units fire resistance. I'll sit over here and focus on my air and water magic, then laugh at you when your fire resistances accomplish nothing. Your second fa

[quote who="BoogieBac" reply="16" id="2408621"] So wait, we have to harvest wood now? Not necessarily, our resource system is built around a 'BONUS' mentality, opposed to a 'CAN/CANNOT' system. The only resource you NEED is the required gold. Everything else either gets pulled from storage or gets factored into the otherall 'Time to Build'. So let's say a Watchtower has a base labor cost of 10 and requires 15 units of Lumber. If you have enough Lumber i

In my opinion: If you create a unit for which you miss resources, the unit should be produced in the same time, but needs to cost more (just initial cost, not upkeep). The reasoning is that resources can be bought on the market and delivered to the smithy (or whatever). If you dont have a market (or a special market upgrade that makes it possible), you simply wont be able to acquire the needed resources and wont be able to produce the unit. To keep it simple i would ju

[quote who="Denryu" reply="21" id="2383469"]Frogboy a question I have been wanting to ask about GalCiv AI and since you brought it up... Were there significant AI changes between GC 2 and GC2 TWOTA? The reason is I did not buy TWOTA for the longest time thinking "How much could they have changed? How could it be worth the price?" Honestly if I remember correctly I ended up buying it to improve my odds at an alpha slot, lol. Anyway, it seems like the AI is much better in
