You should just play the game, have fun, and comment on what you are doing and such. Let's Plays arent really supposed to be tutorials about the mouse cursor changing to a wand [e digicons]:inlove:[/e] I think the key (to victory?? haha) is to treat your viewers as if you already expect them to be intelligent enough to understand most of what you show, not as if they were soccer moms who never played anything but dr mario before :D ooor you could do the in

Yeah, i suck and all that. But come on. When the second city you build gets pwned by a single lvl 1 7hp bandit, resulting in the ENTIRE city being razed, resulting in that patch of land now being completely and utterly worthless and unbuildable for the rest of the game, i always just say "fuck it" and quit. Its just not fun, it makes no sense, and its annoying. And before you tell me to train more defenders, if the bandit attacks within 3 turns, there's no time for anything more
[quote who="Arkenor" reply="3" id="2755405"]As I think I've mentioned before, the single map that comprises the current "campaign" is not what most people would consider a campaign. It was an evenings play. I do hope that you aren't thinking that that was reasonable, and that the next books, whether they're free or not, will be significantly more substantial. [/quote] People care about the campaign? I've never even started it up.. I'd be more happy if they put ALL their effo
Yeah lol i found it funny how it yelled in my face with a bold font, right after signing up; "Open beta testers have NO access to the forums!" Sigh. I miss MMO's.. And i've tried them all. They are fun and exciting at first, when you discover new things, then its a boring rutine (doesnt matter if its grindy or not, either its kill-mobs grindy or do-quests grindy). I even reactivated my ancient dusty WoW account, because i thought, maybe it is enjoyable af
[quote who="xMoMx" reply="1" id="2757097"] quoting post In short, this game would have been a bigger hit if you just remade AoW2 with the arty painterly graphics and new engine. Tbh AoW was quite a failure itself. I say, to save Elemental devs shouldn't "just remake AoW2". They should remake MoM. [/quote] Your nickname represents your inaccuracy. AoW:SM wasnt a fail in any way, it was by far the best 4x fantasy game ever created.
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="12" id="2757013"]Guys, Let's focus the blame where it belongs and that is on ONE person: ME. I could list out the sins right here: I violated my long-standing tradition of monitoring the forums and playing the game and instead focused on working on the game directly. If I had spent more time on the forums instead of the compiler, I'd have been convinced of having a public Beta 5 and then likely would have just pushed the date
- No outlines in tactical battles, when the No outlines checkbox is checked :P - Random map generation, currently you can go to the map editor, generate a quick map, then save it as seed_blabla and it'll show up if you are lucky. Why not add this to the game setup screen, so it auto-generates a map for you and saves it with a new seed name, then chooses it. Basically just bypassing the Go to map editor / new map / generate / save as / go back to Start New Game / Select
Try again, i couldnt apply yesterday, the site said "blahblha no more applicants", but this morning it was open again =)
LOL [e digicons]:(O[/e] Thank god for Elemental to keep me company / busy.. Honestly. At first i sat there, looking at the progress bar, then i thought, "screw this!!" *started up elemental*. The entire day and evening pass, i suddenly remember the FFXIV download, i quit Elemental and notice its STILL at 99%. God, how can they have patches on torrents (built-in updater-app torrents that you cant configure), when the ONLY way to get the last 1kb is to download it from some
I've had ai's tell me we should have treaties together too, then once i say "okay sure" and ask them, they dont even want to consider it (cant click on them) [e digicons]XO[/e] Devs, have the AI's actually come with their own trade / treaty / marriage requests, pre-set in the trade screen when you click "yeah dude sure!", it makes no sense and appears so broken, to just throw you to the same empty diplomacy screen you could have just went to yourself without them even asking.
Oh sry :D The shady way topics are displayed (without the left side-portrait and name easily visible), i simply often dont notice the name of the thread starter / mod creator :(
Does this include the very latest Icecrown mod version where he fixed some minor things in the files? "infernal spell lacks a , also CoreSpells_WATER_Strategic.xml referenced an effect that wasn't included named named MakeTundraMod"
Aww i was hoping for a terrain retexture :P Like lava in the fallen terrain textures and pink flowers in the grass texture ;)
[quote who="pmaura" reply="8" id="2754880"] I jsut noticed that two, I wish they had more races as well, 10 sets off humans is not that diverse. atleast with civilization asians, europenas and mesoamercians atleast had different looking cities. [/quote] Exactly, when real life has more diversity than a fantasy game set in a world of magic and monsters, something is wrong.
[quote who="Supronar" reply="47" id="2752515"] Quoting alborrelli, reply 37 When not playing Elemental: 1. my girlfriend 3. myself 4. The Guild 2 Renaissance (even more buggy than Elemental, but then it appears all JoWood games are). 5. Dragon Age Interesting....where's number 2. What exactly is between your girlfriend and yourself? [/
I like it :D Finally i can use head protection lol XD
Bump, still in 1.07
Dayuumn! *grabs popcorn*
[quote who="dragoaskani" reply="6" id="2751363"]Open Beta for Final Fantasy 14 starts tonight, i am debating joining in. Swore I was done with MMO's till at least star wars launches but this thing looks kinda promising after running the benchmark tool for it. [/quote] WHAT? :O *googles* edit: FUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!

[quote who="Vhorthex" reply="56" id="2751765"] I really have no care for FPS in a TBS game. I mean it's more comfortable to move the camera around. But It's nothing I can't deal with. [/quote] I'd like to see you say that when you get 5fps, like i do when viewing a city. Its more than uncomfortable, its unplayable. Every mouse-click has to be choreographed in advance to avoid the game going nuts and placing 3 duplicate buildings all over the screen 
[quote who="dchalfont" reply="30" id="2752018"]I haven't bought the game yet, launch reviews were not too kind. I don't like the idea of the game I buy being outdated and in dire need of multiple patches on day 1.... [/quote] The same reviewers also gave Spore a near perfect score. (no i wont let it go! [e digicons]>_>[/e] ) Bribed = high score, not bribed = low score
Why would it be accidental? :P If you're saying that they released the game in a buggy state to prevent piracy, nah. They've already gotten far more backlash from that which impacts sales than a few torrents could.
[quote who="Gravedancer" reply="85" id="2749677"]Replacements was a poor choice of words. I was looking at the list of folders that are scanned and was thinking that if it's not one of those "types" (represented by the folder name) then it would go in the \mods folder. However I was reading another thread that pretty much implies it's irrelevant which of those folders it's located in and/or the filename. It's all about the root element used for that file. Sor
I play everything BUT Elemental, while it gets patched to a playable and or balanced state. (either is good enough) Distant Worlds, Lego Batman (free bundle copy, might as well, right?), Tales of Vesperia, Victoria 2. Also been faffin around in Soul Calibur IV that i found collecting dust in my shelf, forgot i had it lol. Its awesomely deep once you give it a try. I remember when i first bought it, i sucked and ragequit. Now, yesterday when playing it the first time since
[quote who="Robert Hentschke" reply="22" id="2750445"]Awwww man. Way to ruin my convoluted conspiracy theory that explains why there won't be a patch anytime soon. =/ [/quote] hahah exactly XD
