I finished the Winter Assault campaign with all sides and I can't remember any particular difficulty with the Orcs. perhaps you're just not good with them? Gorgutz takes the lead and uses his ability when he got his boyz around him. Tankbustas against tanks. Isn't there any strategic point, crit point or relic close by for you to take?
Windows Media Player 11 is the best one I've ever used. Windows buildin firewall is good. Got no complaints yet. NOD 32 is a good antivirus. Don't got any antispyware but I hope windows defender keeps track of that.
I haven't heard about the iPad until it was announced.....makes me feel out of the loop....:( Thing that annoys me is that the announcement DIDN'T SAY WHAT IT IS! It talk about what it can do and stuff but doesn't say what it is....is it a small laptop? Is it a scaled up iPhone..? Next time rotten apple, compare to something that people know about so I know what the hell I'm re
Taking into mind that I don't know how spellbooks and everything else of the magicsystem works my suggestion is best viewed as a "Don't fall into other games traps". Have you considered making the shards mana-neutral? Right now it sounds like Disciples II where you collect different types of mana and I think that made things too random. We've also had Age of Wonders with Life/Death/Air/Fire/Water/Earth nodes that gave more mana the more books of nodes type y
10-12 years ago, my neighbor played these slow games called Fallout and HomeWorld which I didn't understand the charm off (didn't try them back when they were new....) I haven't played HomeWorld but HomeWorld II I gave a try. The things that struck out to me were: Sloooow Low lethality Lack of rewarding combatmicromanagement I played until the mission with the standard ships (medium damage,
Didn't do the first 2 questions as I'm not in the beta. Pretty short. I expected a loong one.
Great thread! Now if it only were in Swedish so I would understand what the ingredients are.... I can cook macaronies and hotdogs/meatballs ^^ Man I suck at cooking....Luckily they sell pizza for 1.7 Euro otherwise I guess I would have to live of bread and addons....
[quote who="the Gorgon" reply="25" id="2516645"]This is definately a step in the right direction. If the Fallen are as different from humans as orcs are from elves they should satisfy our thirst for fantasy and variety. As long as they really play differently too. Keep up the good work on it![/quote] Indeed! It sounds better then I thought possible. At first I thought we were gonna get humans and some fantasy races which would be standard and good. Then when it wa
I've followed what the zealots over at No Mutants Allowed have said about Fallout III and that was very entertaining. You should see their comments when the first gorey combat pics were released! It were like: "....ok, so we can shoot heads off...." and "yeah, this is EXACTLY what I expect Fallout to look like....". Then when they realized that you can kite they declared the lead designer as satan and wanted him nailed to the cross. But then again, being told that "we're t
The Age of Wonders music sure is good. Marsch of the Halflings is really good. Highmen theme was a bit epic as well. But Shadow Magic had a few really good ones like "In the company of Treehuggers Elves" and "Death Song". Otherwise, Lords of Magic had the best individual song, the Death Song
About the A.I mod "Dawn of Skirmish". Even at full power and "Hard" difficulty where they are on an even footing with you, if you're skilled you can cripple them in the beginning. Even the Dawn of Skirmish creators say that you shouldn't rush it since it can't handle a skilled player in the beginning. BUT, if you give it 2min to develop it will be hard to win since the A.I do everything simultaneously. When I attack early, I always win. If
[quote who="Beric01" reply="5" id="2512061"]It'd be nice if Elemental could use all 8 threads on my i7, but at least 4 is absolutely necessary. I want good AI, and if it takes more CPU power, then by all means use it.[/quote] I'm ready to overclock and wait 20 sec every turn if the A.I needs that much time to be at full power (but with 2 x 3.0GHz I want to believe that my CPU is 5x as powerful as the max CPU power needed.
[quote who="Wintersong" reply="7" id="2510236"]They should never give anything more than bragging rights. Anything else and you have complainers, cheaters...[/quote] Agreed. Bragging rights are enough. I LOVE achievements! I'm gonna get'em all so I can slap them in peoples faces and show them that my e-peen is bigger then everybody elses I am the best there is [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
GalCiv II Dev Journals (a.k.a. the very first info shared about Elemental).
Now THAT'S what I call a mouse invasion! [b]Luckmann[/b] The thing that affects me the most with your video is when she stepped and crushed a mouse when she ran into the pigs place. You can see the red under her shoe.
LED is the newest technology and I'd try to get one of those. A 24' one is pretty expensive but I think it's worth its price.
[quote who="Wintersong" reply="15" id="2508003"]You should have accepted the "Kill the Rat" quest instead of the "Relocate the Rat" quest.[/quote] But "Kill the Rat" doesn't give any prestige, just a tiny amount of XP! "Relocate the Rat" takes more effort and thus gives the rarer attribute prestige instead. Ofcourse, the greed for prestige may backfire (like it just did) and you get nothing at all [e digicons]^_^[/e]
[quote who="tetleytea" reply="12" id="2505266"] However, a good moderator also has to be a member of the community. I would argue the opposite: a good mod has to NOT be a participating member of the community. That's like a ref also being a player. The minute the mod participates, the discussion is colored, because you know if you alienate the mod, that mod becomes biased, and now you have to worry about that mod searching for loopholes to cite you for "infractions
Reminds me a few months ago when I played in a WarCraft 3 Frozen Throne custom game....You got heroes that lvl up against waves of stuff and after a while I destroyed a turret that released a big monster....they asked what I was doing and when I said I hadn't gotten that far to as destroying that tower I gotted comments like: "LOL NOOB", "Leave plz" If I could only track their IPs and such so I could mess with them.....God I want to
That was just too muuch! After a girl sees that video that guy is OFF the dating list. Wonder what some of my female friends would do if I show this to'em....
Altaux Me and my consolefriend have completed all MegaMan games on NES and maybe all on SNES as well. I can't believe they made one of the SNES MegaMans harder then one of the NES MegaMans though [e digicons]o_O[/e] I've heard that MegaMan 9 is incredibly hard though. And the achievements....

[quote who="Haree78" reply="25" id="2498863"]Azazel exploitable As for hardest boss I've ever played against in any type of game...I'd have to say the guy at the end of Quake 3 was harder than the guy at the end of Unreal Tournament, much to do with the fact there was nowhere to hide on the Q3 level!

Would be fun to trick people with that [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
Nice options. You'd exspect a game with official servers to have Battle.Net functionality (automatic downloading of maps) by now but I've learned that's not always the case. Like when Games For Windows Live came....Instead of typing "/w Nick-Danger how ya doing?" You send a type of e-mail....From what I recall, I'm fairly certain that automatic downloading of maps wasn't possible either. I ofcourse expect Elementals MP to beat Battle.Net but not Battle.Net 2.0 [e digic
