My current sovereign selection screen: What I am told my sovereign selection screen is supposed to look like: IS this just my machine doing this or are others having the same
relmich
That sure is interesting. In at 0.86 right now and my current sovereign selection screen is considerably different than what is shown in Brad's post. I will have to take a screen shot tonight and post it.
[quote who="SirKid" reply="37" id="3096821"] At some point are you going to put Line of Sight rules into the tactical battles? I would love to be able to use terrain to hide wounded units from archers.[/quote] Line of sight is something a lot of us would like to see added to FE Tactical Battles. From what I recall reading here a while back, the Elemental Engine doesn't support it, and doing so would be a relatively major rewrite of the engine.
[quote who="Chehalden" reply="41" id="3096902"]I've been out of the loop so this has probably been answered at some point in the past. Are dynasties going to make a comeback/be put in at some point for fallen enchantress? I thought it was a really neat feature[/quote] I think Brad has stated that they will attempt to put dynasties back into a future Elemental game (assuming FE is successful). It won't be seen in FE.
That screen you show where you are selecting your sovereign, is that currently in Beta 2 (0.86)? My selection screen looks much different. I really like the look of the one you show.
Anyone else think that the speed that the units move in tactical battles is a bit too fast? I see that there is an option to speed up the movements, but nothing to slow it down from the default speed.
[quote who="Tasunke" reply="68" id="3084740"] Quoting Trojasmic, reply 67I would like EFE to be the best of Civ IV, King's Bounty, Master of Magic, Heroes of Might and Magic, Tropico, and World of Warcraft. Is that a good suggestion? I'd prefer the best of Civ IV(FFH2), Medieval2: Total War, and Warhammer40k [/quote] might as well add a little X-COM to the mix too... [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
I want to start by stating that I am not expecting much from the current iteration of the FE AI, as we know the AI is only partially implemented at this point in the Beta (0.77). It is relatively early in the game. I have my capital city at about level 4 (no other cities yet). I decide I need to take a City from, my too close for comfort neighbor, Yithril. So I gather a decent army consisting of my soveriegn (level 4), two defenders, and two featherwyn archers. I march my army
Elemental: War of Magic is a decent game with some solid ideas that just didn't come together. I just never got that "I need to play" feeling. I personally would wait for Fallen Enchantress as it is already a significantly better experience despite only being in the early beta stage.
Immediately following the death of both my Champion and Sovereign and the display message of the resulting injury to the champion I received the message that the program has quit running. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/59194037/FallenEnchantress0_76-2012-01-27T00-05-35-503.zip
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="2" id="3063562"]This Thursday it'll be extended to everyone who bought WOM before November 1, 2010. It'll be 0.76 which will be a fairly significant update too.[/quote] Woo hoo......Thursday evening can't come quick enough
[quote who="vieuxchat" reply="10" id="3063811"] James, if you want to record in HD I strongly suggest using Debut Video Capture. [/quote] vieuxchat - I have been playing around with Debut Video Capture and can't seem to get it to capture my games 100%. I am able to record my desktop and the launch of the game and through the splash screens, but as soon as the main menu loads, all i get recording is audio and a blank scre
I have watched your LPs and enjoyed them. Anxiously waiting for my access to the BETA to come this week.
[quote quoting="post"] So I asked Brad to postpone the public beta (sorry) and he agreed. We need time with the features set to play and tweak, to go through our games so that when you have a chance to play we are ready for the feedback you offer. [/quote] I guess I will be the first to ask about whether there is a new estimate on the release of the Beta? I am all for taking as long as you need, but at the same time, just for my own sanity, I would
I haven't played it, but I have been hearing that it is a beautiful game and just a lot of fun to play. The one knock I heard was the story isn't really all that prioritized in the game.
Must mean the BETA is close.....i hope.
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="29" id="2963612"]So the reason I worked on WOM to this point is because I enjoyed it. I believe -- and continue to believe- - that WOM can become a pretty awesome game by addressing the kinds of things we've all mutually discussed. And while I still believe that, there's no scenario where I can make WOM reach the level of FE because FE has so much more talent behind it. Back when WOM came out and sucked, we eliminated our second games team at the
Nice. Love getting peeks behind the curtain.
What happened to Animondays? I enjoyed these little nuggets of info....
Enjoy the changes so far. Only played a bit, but first thing that bugged me was that my pioneer is costing 40 mats? Is this right?
Really? It isn't showing up as available on impulse for me yet...? Correction: It see it now ! !
Well at least it looks like there is a chance it will be out. [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]
So any word on the likelihood of the 1.29 beta release tonight? Did it make the window?...I imagine you would know by now.
Crossing my fingers this makes it out on Thursday night. I have already booked gaming time on the home computer in anticipation of putting 1.29 through the paces.
Not sure if I missed any threads talking about this, but any chance Elemental FE makes an E3 appearance?
