Hey Derek, Welcome to the community [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e] Glad to have you on board.

Ok so shoot me for mentioning this, but maybe SD should look into the 3DS for a port ? Its supposedly more powerful and i love to play TBS strategy games on my DSXL when i am traveling. The touch screen gives the DS a very mouse like interface akin to the PC so there are lots of ways to get PC control conventions across to the DS. Course no one is really sure how powerful the 3DS is but wow it would be fantastic to play a version of elemental on a hand held.

Post after post now i read tons and tons of differing ideas to fix this issue. Alot of them sound like a maked improvement to the current food issues. https://forums.elementalgame.com/397376 This post here sums up one of the better and simpler ways to fix this. I am not sure why, but its coming across that this is not as big of a concern to SD as it is to the players of the game. Maybe i am a sky is falling ala

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="4" id="2795055"]Well, Impulse has a few advantages over Steam in that way. [/quote] You are exactly right Frog, but alas there are some titles not Avail on Impulse/Steam so i let them share the load so to speak. Course now that i have moved to Alaska i tend to make more purchase with Impulse so i can get a boxed edition also. Usually i get the box before the Game finishes Downloading. Now if we can just get SD and Impulse to take over <a href="

Sorry but i have to say this at least once, i live in Barrow Alaska, we have by far the worst internet in the world (might be exaggerating a small bit here but its terrible). Can we get lots of small updates instead of the very few Gigantor updates ? As it is 500mb updates take me a whole day. Sure its selfish, but i am sure there are others out there who are in similar situations. Anyhow thanks for all the hard work SD folks, you all are gems in the morass of ding dong devs

I still think the basic GalCiv equivalent to resource gathering per city would be a quick fix, but i fear it would be a huge overhaul requiring way to many resources for just a simple update. While i am hoping for this to modified soon, i hate to think SD having to use up so much time on this. I dunno, i love Elemental but i am still itching for GalCiv 3, even better if it uses the Elemental engine. One can dream :)

I have to agree with this, in fact its kinda turned me off from playing recently. The fact that the computer controlled players do the thing i try to avoid doing cause it feels lame and "RTSish like" I am not playing a Real Time Strategy game here. I want to take my time with things, not rush to every resource node. It just seems so out of place. i dunno makes me feel i am playing Age of Empires with an AutoPause feature switched on. GalCiv each planet had any resource you wanted, but

[quote quoting="post"] I pushed back a future GalCiv sequel to make sure we do right by you guys. [/quote] [e digicons]:([/e] Seriously, though. My brother is in the industry (works at intel now but was employed at insomniac) i always bothered him about developer mentality and how i felt they were out of touch sometimes. He had to explain how at certain points during the development process the devs put on blinders just so they can

One thing that is rather annoying in Elemental, is the use of squares and not Hexes. Anyone read the reasoning behind this design decision ? I am a long time Pen and Paper Battletech player and have always found the Hex to be a more flexible form of terrain demarcation then a square. Seems like a nitpick but really puts Elemental at a disadvantage for those of us who really do like to be strategic minded players.

Umm, can't you limit Pioneers by... lets see... not making anymore ? [e digicons] Just odd you would need a mod for this.

[quote who="Robert Hentschke" reply="8" id="2781662"]I think you forgot Outpost and Daggerfall in that list. And Battlecruiser 3000 AD. =P[/quote] Daggerfall ? huh ? Sorry while Daggerfall had some technical hurdles it was not semi broken like so many other titles, Bethesda also supported that game in spades. SD has and always will give excellent support for there games and even those they just publish. I love the fact that i know if i got really t

Hey thank you, I hope thats the reason, seems like s simple fix for me if it is. Thanks again.

Please Bring back the ability to end my turns so i can PLAY the game.

So i have had very minor issues till the release of 1.08b. Now i get to around turns 30-50 and i can no longer end my turn to progress the game. Saving = poop, new game after new game results in same issue. I live in Barrow Alaska, my internet connection is garbage at its best, i cannot spend day after day of uninstalling and reinstalling the game and its patches trying to fix a game i WANT to play but cannot. Seems odd to be suggesting this but maybe SD needs to release a Tes
