Ok, don't sue me, just saying how I'd implement it if this was mine. Agreement is not compulsory. The idea is that when the titans were banished, one titan in particular (to be named) tried to avoid banishment by binding himself to a shard. For the most part, this did not succeed - the titan was banished, but he had succeeded in some small measure. The titan's will, his ambition, his purpose, had become imprisoned within the shard. So the will of the titan can't escape the shard,

[quote who="OsirisDawn" reply="27" id="2764831"]MP is a feature on the box, so releasing it is the right thing to do for those that want it and already payed for it.[/quote]It must be released for all users who payed for the game. That they want to use that feature or not is unimportant because they payed exactly the same as someone interested. If Stardock had offered a version without MP and cheaper, many people would have bought that version instead.

Count the seconds while you play? (very very very bad joke, sorry) I hadn't noticed the lack of clock despite being a "must have" feature for TBS games. Too much time in Windowed Mode, I suppose. XD

[quote who="Tridus" reply="9" id="2764819"] And locking them is accomplishing... what, exactly? All we've gotten out of this is a dev journal like the posting mods on reactor one where nobody is providing feedback or asking questions at all, which was one of the best things about the dev journals before release. [/quote]It moves the flame wars to other areas of the forum. Same as feedback/questions (because, you know, you don't need to post in the Dev Journals are to post feedback/q

I have tried Undead 2.0 adding the CoreLogos file into the Race folder (internalname of the CoreLogo as PreferredLogoType for Ravenloft_Faction_Custom). Works fine. Edit: works in the Units folder too. By the way, does the mod affect Altar males' face? O_o

[quote who="Mtn_Man" reply="119" id="2763399"] I still have a hunch that if Elemental had Sid Meier's name on the box and all other things were equal, it would have been given a far more charitable reception.

That would be my only reason to wish Civ V a very bad launch with lots of problems. Just to see the reviews in such case. That "would b

I like restrictions. Better feedback about it and improved implementations are always more than welcome. Having messed with all the possible clothes, boots, capes and similars, I wish the distribution/restrictions were better and or included more adecuate things (boots for females are a no no except for tight boots and other type which name I don't remember right now but that is available for female Tarthans).

I would be happy with just getting rid of the "Attacker first, then defender. Repeat until one side wins.". The attacker having some bonus to initiative? Fine. But in the end I would prefer unit acting according to their own initiative in a single turn instead of "Attacker Turn" -> "Defender Turn".

If by October I haven't received any kind of signal about my LE, I'll start to worry seriously. Very seriously. Meanwhile, here we have people receiving more than one copy of the game. *sigh* Glad for digital download at least.
