The team has done a wonderful job getting this game ready for release. Beta 5-C is heads & shoulders above were things were just a month ago. Please take the time to eliminate as many of the bugs reported in the forums before release as possible. I would also like to second Heavenfall's comment about the importance of UI. IMHO the number one thing that has kept me from buying/enjoying games is a UI that gets in the way of the fun. <p

Ancient Ruins quest says you need to learn Heroes to go on strong quests. I've researched Heroes and Ereog's Journal and this quest is still blocked. https://www.dropbox.com/s/vadu6lk4voghauq/Jim_98_1_14.EleSav

Okay - just updated my NVIDIA drivers & everythings back to normal. They weren't out of date by very much & .95 beta worked just fine, but just goes to show how touchy programs can be.
Anyone else having this problem or is it just my system. Up to this point I haven't had any issues with any of the beta versions.
Save & load wouldn't work with update so I deleted program and downloaded full .951 beta. Save & load still won't work. I tried medium map with premade Sov, but this didn't help either. Load button won't even get to save list for me to pick an autosaved game. Here are links: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ez3gn36rlo6cz5l/debug.err <a href="https://www.dropbox
Just wanted to say that after playing for about 8 hrs last night I really like where Derek is taking this game. I voted good, but only because there are a few issues, no point repeating other posts, which keep if from getting excellent and very good wasn't an option.
I always play the largest maps avialable on all my strategy games. However I have no problem with you using medium maps for optimizing the AI. I don't think the average player would have the time or patience to play the kind of long drawn out games I like.
[quote who="seanw3" reply="122" id="3186842"] I keep a list of notes on each planet in large ES games. Sure the UI needs a little notepad that we can open next to the planet, but I am more than capable of doing it myself. I am the emperor of a vast system of planets. [/quote] I have always played my 4x games on the biggest scale the game will allow. I understand LNQ's point about tedious end games & poor in game support. However, I tend to agree with SEANW3, keepin
Game in season 418. Large map. Crashes whenever I try to save or game auto saves. I tried loading previous saves that let me play & save, but they also crash now on saving. I tried removing & reloading program, but that didn't help either. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16706254/debug.err http://
[quote who="pearlfarr" reply="2" id="3179008"] Also, how do I start the debug function from within the program. [/quote] You don't have to do anything. The program automatically produces them. Just follow the excellent link Kongdej provided & that tells you where to look, what to look for , & how to send it.
Now here is a champion worthy of MOM! He comes with very good armor & shield & weapon. A great tank, but wait it gets better! He has the trait "Call Uteran". You get a mauling Cave Bear in tactical combat for no manna cost! A double barreled Tank! I don't know who thought this one up Derek, but it's things like this that will make the game a success.
Whenever I reload this saved game it crashes either on resaving or after a few turns. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16706254/Jim_915_3_37.EleSav http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16706254/FallenEnchantress0_915-2012-05-28T10-18-31-83.zip http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16706254/d
Don't know if this is meant to be or an error, but one of the Attributes for Chanpion's Spear is listed twice: +10 Attack vs Twisted =10 Attack vs Twisted
Health bar for Burning Wraiths doesn't reflect damage done to them (stays full), but damage shows when you mouse over Wraith you hit.
(Doing my best Lord Xia impression) I find all this gratuitous gladhanding nauseating! Post some #$%%&&## opinions so we can pick them apart and show the world how truly clueless you are & how utterly brillant we are. [e digicons]}:)[/e]

[quote who="Tattyhat" reply="14" id="3155594"]Where is my Beta 0.915? It's Thursday and I don't have my Beta 0.915. I need my Beta fix or there is no telling what I may be capable of.

[quote who="enoeraew37" reply="12" id="3155169"] Yes a lot of gamers wear black but that doesnt mean we dont have values..I wont put my resources toward a company bent on ruining gaming so some shareholders can feed their trophy women. I'm uncomfortable as it is with Jon "civkiller" Shafer lurking about. [/quote] Jon got a trophy wife for his part in Civ V? Where do I sign up for GalCiv 3. [e digicons]}:)[/e]
BurntSoul - Excellent summary. I totally agree with your interpretation of Draginol's request. [e digicons]k1[/e] I personally have no use for MP, having no friends except for my computer (my kids only play XBox), however I would be happy to pay $1 to increase the fanbase & support for what I think is shaping up to be a very good game.
Top of this screen... Games... select FE... select downloads.
Rule number 1 in playing a Beta - don't get attached to today's version, it'll change tomorrow. I agree that .914 isn't as much fun for me as .913, but telling the Dev's what isn't working for me in the new build is just part of the job of being a beta tester. It's ok to have opinions & express them in a constructive way. Just remember the game will ulimately be an expression of the Dev's vision, not ours. Hopefully&nbs

[quote who="Derek Paxton" reply="5" id="3150866"] Its random. sometimes you get to clear out the place without a battle and complete a quest and sometimes there is a spider you have to fight. I would like to change the quests so that losing them doesn't fail the quest. But as is they are working as designed. [/quote] Maybe replacing the Spider with a R.O.U.S. would keep the Quest more in keeping with it's original intent. [e digicons]}:)[
