Stardock will be closed for the week starting on Monday, June 29th and we will be returning on Monday, July 6th. We will be monitoring support tickets and forums during this time but expect delays in responses during this time.
Low level or high level, it only matters with magic, their combat is about 90% related to the gear you give them. Would be nice if level 1 heroes didn't have crack baby ability scores. They seem to have sup-par stats, and high level heroes have very good stats for no real reason, but less abilities for their level. Either way, it's pretty moot, as all that matters what gear you give them.
Johnny 5 is alive!!!
Never used Naja. Do they not come leveled up like Drakes? They should be useful from the get go.
Id prefer to keep it the way it is. You can only have one drake. Its fine.
God damn space herpes.
[quote who="seanw3" reply="17" id="3115968"]Also, all colonies need to be highly ordered military installations. We don't want regular people living on other planets. Their culture would evolve differently and we would become separate peoples. [/quote] Fuck that, I want to be a proud Moonmanian!
I want to be a space pirate.
Game testing sounds like a terrible job to me. Maybe I've read too many of those stories from that Penny Arcade site, but it sounds awful.
Razing ruins the land the city was on, you can't get resources from that tile any more. At least that's what it seems like to me when I play.
Pretty sure Brad is the happiest person at Stardock, unless there are other millionaires there.
[quote who="Kantok" reply="7" id="3115236"] It's not a binary thing. You can like something quite a lot and still be critical of it at times. [/quote] Don't bring wisdom into this. Everyone knows you either love something completely and stand by every aspect, or you hate everything about it and nothing about it is good. They are only two options with everything. And so clearly because Brad made minor crit
It would make sense that a tile is at least a couple hundred square miles. 10 x 10 mile square is pretty small part of land, but pretty large area for a city in medieval times to take up. And then if you consider how long it takes to walk over normal terrain, I wouldn't put 62,500 square miles out of the picture for each tile. Think about it, how long would it take to travel 8 squares? 1 year? That's only 2,000 miles in one year, pretty damn slo
I'm torn kind of. I do like how each of my cities do look different with the placement of buildings, and I really never thought that the snaking of cities to allow "teleportation" was really a big issue...but the size of these cities just seemed too much. They covered a large area of the map, and although very interesting to look at, they were almost too interesting as they all ended up kind of blending together. I'm slightly worried about defending nearby resources,
I use to play FFH with Settlers turned off and no city razing, but started with 3 cities each. Creates more meaningful cities that way, to me at least. Where as right now cities get destroyed all the time and rebuilt and seem to kind of lose their importance. Probably wouldn't work as well in this game, but it was a fun option.
They can make some pretty strong, simple strategies now. If you fart around in the early game, they can make you pay.
What is android, is that phone shit? Are phone games comparable to console and PC games? I don't own a phone worth a shit, and don't ever plan on using a phone for anything other than a phone...I'm just a cranky old man.
It wouldn't be any better than GalCiv2. With old classics, you either make the same game over with a bit of sparkle, and it feels dated or you remake it with modern gameplay ideas and the old time gamers feel cheated (not me, but many gamers seem to feel that way). Best to just make a new franchise and say goodbye to those old ones forever.
I would doubt that mods really create any real sales. I truly doubt there are a lot of people passing on games in genres they like only to purchase them later due to hearing about mods in significant numbers. I'm sure it happens, I doubt it's really a strong factor in a games sales.
[quote who="Bellack" reply="4" id="3112333"]Read the review. That picture in the FE section where is this 'Gildenarena' I have never seen this in game. Is this something comming out in a future beta release. Looks like a pretty cool tactical battles map.[/quote] Maybe it's suppose to be Gilbert Arenas.
Well, understand that MoO 3 has a metacritic score of 64. WoM has a 53. I think the idea is, not so much what your personal scores are, but what do you think FE metacritic score would be if it was reviewed by a bunch of game reviewers today. So those games being what they are, I stick by my 75. Which is a pretty god damn good score for a game that is several months from actually being released.
How many Republicans are running on an antigay marriage platform? It is a big issue to gain the Christian vote. And I know lots of Christians, shit I live in Kansas, this state tried to end the teaching of Evolution in schools because it conflicted with the bible. I know lots of Christians. And few know anything about their religion or holy book.
Christians and their ability to pick and choose from the bible amaze me. A couple of passages that might be interpreted as not allowing homosexual relationships is the big topic of the day. Have you read that book? I have. Go through the entire book of Leviticus and tell me that Christians really follow these rules. Shit, how about the 10 commandments? And pictures of Jesus or angels in your house? Ever worked on the Sabbath? Not that Chris
I have vista and I mildly am annoyed with it. I would like to upgrade, but don't really feel the need to yet.
When someone says basic "framework" I assume they mean like the structure of a home, meaning the real important parts everything else it built on. Or is it like the frame of a picture? Because what is listed are pretty minor things that would be more in line with the latter. Not that I disagree with them as issues so much, but maybe the weight of their significance.
I would say FE is more in the 7.5 range right now. It's good, it's solid, but right now doesn't have the replayability to push it to 8.5 nor the wow factor to push it to a 9+. I certainly think that you guys can make it great.
