[quote]Honestly, I consider Stephen Hawking to be the smartest man currently on the face of the planet.

[quote who="DrGroth" reply="4" id="2673074"]OK, so you are saying that the BOX version always includes the DVD? Why then does it say DOWNLOAD? and shouldn't it be clear that it includes the DVD? [/quote] Yes, the box version ALWAYS includes the DVD. It says download because you get the digital download in addition to the box with DVD. Becauseit takes time to ship boxes to you, so you can still get the game on release. For most people, saying it includes the box implie

Amazon has it, and you can get it directly from Stardock. On the homepage https://www.elementalgame.com/ towards the top there is the "Pre-Order" button. You can buy the limited edition, or if you already bought the regular version, you can upgrade to limited.

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="22" id="2671835"]The game supports 32 players but WE don't support 32 players on our servers. [/quote] Well that answers one question, but it raised another; why not? Why can't we have SD hosted 32 player games?

[quote who="OMG_BlackHatHedgehog" reply="16" id="2671770"]Also, it's 16-player MP now, not 32. Furthermore, unlike Ubisoft, you CAN save your saved games on your local machine. They just keep an additional copy on their machines for your convenience. An custom servers, again. You do not have to connect to Stardock's servers to play and you can play multiplayer illegally on custom servers. [/quote] Whoa whoa what? When did it get reduced to 16 players?

It's going to use Impulse::Reactor for DRM/multiplayer/acheivements/etc. It's similar to Steamworks, but not invasive (which, IMO, that alone makes it infinetely better). As for the game being released on Steam or something else, never, ever, ever going to happen. See this thread: https://forums.elementalgame.com/383665

[quote who="marlowwe" reply="3" id="2670725"]Is there anyway we can get access to a comprehensive library of all of the game modifiers instead of looking through the game files?

[quote]My idea for the printed Hiergamenon was just to crank out a bunch of print version of XML data form the game as a reference guide.

Philly meant which of the Stardock forums. There are more than just the Elemental ones (Sins, GalCiv2, Impulse. WinCustomize, etc). They're all kind of connected. Users on one site can see some posts from other sites, but not always all of them.

Give it some time. It went live less than an hour ago[e digicons]:P[/e] And, iirc, they have to go through the backlog of people who pre-ordered between Betas 2 and 3 before they can charge new orders. If it still doesn't work by this time tomorrow, then you might have a problem.
