[quote who="NorsemanViking" reply="186" id="3658038"] The world needs a WOM2. Make Fantasy Strategy (with some RPG elements) great again! [/quote] Seriously, that just isn't funny. Guy is a complete jerk, going to destroy world or at least the country. Not funny at all.
YES!!! I have just found Fallen Enchantress LE, and the first thing I thought was...I liked the original Elemental, would enjoy playing that again (some problem spots in game, but a DIRECTOR's CUT, YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.....................................
[quote who="seanw3" reply="5" id="3161845"]I play on fast pace to get the game going. Otherwise the pacing is far too slow. I would cut the tier one and two techs costs in half so that normal pace is more tenable. [/quote] Yes, absolutely. I have changed some stuff so that things cost much less, in money and time. I also kept a mod from War of Magic that doubles the movement. With these two things, the game is fun (though still buggy and often becomes unplayable
Where, when, how?
There are several times that I am checking out the game, and just say, "Wow!" to myself. I really like a lot of the directions this game has gone. I saw some giant "demon-ish" kind of looking creature that precipatated my most recent quoting, but there have been several times it has happened. Two things...I miss the "lower/raise land" stuff...it was very cool, I used to love doing that in the early game making my own mountainous protection, or cutting into m

I am trying to stop posting anything negative, but I must support the opening poster and also comment that these forums are unfriendly, possibly downright mean. The guy explained his situation, and several posts I read bash him for it. I wrote one a few days ago, same thing happened. What we all want is an enjoyable game, but enjoyable is subjective. It doesn't mean that we have to be rude to one another is our subjective views don't mesh. Honestly,
[quote who="NorsemanViking" reply="2" id="3154675"]I like the pace now, so radical changes in pace is not needed, and would make your early decissions less valuable. Better add a super fast mode for those not blessed with any patience..... [/quote]It is not a matter of patience, it is a matter of boredom. If a setting is marked as "fast", then it should be fast. 17 turns to get one building in the very beginning of the game is not fast. I certainly don't
[quote who="CrazyHarlequin" reply="1" id="3154660"] 2) Change map facing from diagonal to straight and KEEP IT.\ Easy. In the options menu there is a checkbox in the middle column called (I believe, but don't quote me on the exact name) 'snap rotation' or something similar. Uncheck this and you can rotate the map as much as you want and it remains. I turn the camera so it faces flat north, myself.[/quote]I meant a permanent change, so I don't
[quote who="Leeovold" reply="9" id="2935694"] Sunjah is merely asking valid questions. There is no need, logically, to berate him. Of course mockery is a fine sport for others. I never had any real problems with my old pc, other than it slowing down from midgame on. I just upgraded massively and now it crashes instantly. I am a huge fan of this game and will await further patching. If that does not fix it I will have no other choice than to await FE, which sounds gr
I must say, I liked Elemental: War of Magic. Yes, there were problems, but I remember having a lot of fun when it first came out. As each patch came, it seemed to make the game much less "fun" and much more of a chore to play. I got the Beta for Fallen Enchantress a few months ago when it came out, tried it, and decided to wait a bit to play. I reinstalled it last night. I LOVE the art of this game, I think there have been massive improvements in the us
I finally did get my problem solved, and from what I've seen so far (the tutorial, basically) this thing is awesome! I hope it ends up being as awesome as I wanted Elemental to be, and after what I've seen my hopes have been ignited again.[e digicons]:D[/e] [e digicons]O:)[/e] [e digicons]:inlove:[/e]
All I've done so far is the tutorial, but WOW, I hope this turns into the game I wanted Elemental to be. Very nice so far!!! Will test and find out where to post things in the coming days...looking forward to it. Ps- personally, I hope Janusk comes back (or is in there now)
As I said, my records all got lost in "the crash of 0'11" (which sucked), so I am not sure if I pre-ordered it from someone else, but I know I did pre-order it. Thanks for the idea, though. On a GOOD NOTE...situation clear!!! The Stardock "support guy" wrote me, told me everything is cool and he put it in my download page. I am downloading/installing now. YEE-HAA. Again, thanks everyone for your comments and to allow me
Pps- my e-mail is the same as when I bought the game, so I don't get it.
Ps... @ Heavenfall, I remember you, and you are as close to official as it gets without actually working for this company. I remember you helping me out on a few mod adjustments I made, I believe on the random/custom maps aspect. How is the new game so far?
First off, thanks for all the comments trying to help. I know I sound frustrated, because I am, but I do appreciate people trying to help me out. There is no question I pre-ordered it, I became a big fan of Stardock/Wardell after the 3 GalCiv 2 chapters, and I thought the art was among the best I had ever seen with Elemental. About a year ago, I had a computer crash, so a lot of documents (like my original receipt of it) got lost. Wh
Yes, it was purchased before release. That is what has me bothered that I haven't received the Beta yet. Ugh, I want to know (and play)!
Okay, so what does stagger mean? It is a little bit infuriating to know I purchase this game several years ago as one of the earliest pre-orders, yet now others have had access to the beta for several days and I have been given no information at all. When will the next notifications go out? How far/how often is this going to be staggered, and how was the choice made of who gets there's first. Please answer someone official.
It definitely has everything BUT fallen enchantress. On the Fallen Enchantress site, it say I am eligible for it for FREE, but have heard nothing yet. Same e-mail I had when I got it two years ago.
For some reason, I just decided to check up on Fallen Enchantress. It seems like the Beta literally just started. I think I might have actually come the day this happened, because several of the posts here say today or yesterday's dates. I checked the Stardock site and it says I am eligible for the Beta as a pre-purchaser of Elemental: War of Magic. It also says I will receive an e-mail and the beta will be automatically added to my "download

I fully agree, and have the base game from DVD. I am VERY much thinking about taking this game off and putting that on. There were problems, for sure, but that game was FUN a lot. This one isn't. (50 turns to research "Find Familiar"...on FAST speed, no less...is just plain boring) All I really want is CIVungeons and Dragons (get it, CIV + DUNGEONS; okay, stupid, but I am dying here), and this game has the foundation and then falls (TERRIBLY) flat trying to
I have not played this game for probably a year. Getting into Civ IV again, and bought Civ V on sale (still think Civ IV is a better game; though I like Civ V, it feels less "grand" and much more "general public" friendly), so I decided to fire this up again. First, WHERE IS JANUSK??? The advice button option is nowhere, he never shows up. Secondly, and this is really the first point of the thread (just wondering on the "Janusk" thing), is there anyone who has made
