So when can we play the campaign? I can't get past the blockade. Restarted the game several times now... PS We NEED a compare equipment window! It's a pain having to exit to my character look at his weapon, open the shop, go though the stuff. Have to repeat to see if I need something else etc etc.
Suggestion: We need a comparison window when trading/shopping so we can see what our character is wearing vs the new stuff!
[quote who="CrazyC0330" reply="14" id="2724126"]Gnrl Tempest, and Tourresh Fillthgrinder, Turn autosaves back on and I'd like to see a debug.err from you if you get a crash. Thanks guys, ~C[/quote] Eh, where and how do I get the debug.err?
My crashing issues stopped when I disabled auto save. Don't know if that helps troubleshooting or not.
[quote who="Mtn_Man" reply="45" id="2723853"] I'm not sure what "meat and potatoes" you're looking for, but I got a lot out of reading the manual.[/quote] That's like having to read the script before watching a movie. In other words: Unnecessary.
[quote]64-bit version will be free and released as a future update. It'll be invisible to those who already have 64-bit Windows.[/quote] So what happens when we download/install now? I take it we are installing the 32-bit version. Will we have to reinstall once the 64-bit is out?
[quote who="Tridus" reply="21" id="2722882"] Realistically we're on a version that is at the oldest, the gold disk version (and might be newer). It's not the 24th patch, but it's not beta 4 either. There won't be a patch coming tomorrow that adds random maps, faction customization, and all the stuff that was cut from multiplayer. [/quote] Eh, I was talking about the DATE being 23rd, when the release is on 24th.
[quote who="Raven X" reply="32" id="2720454"] Quoting Annatar11, reply 11 But the game isn't specifically designed to support it. But it is, since all the required resources needed for solo adventuring (gold, research, spell research) can be acquired without building a single city.

So will us living in Europe get the game on OUR 24th? Or we have to wait til USA is on the 24th??
[quote who="Twohawks" reply="17" id="2718916"] You could gain those points by conquering indies/enemy cities. true but then you have a city .... founding / concurring makes no difference except with out some assistance.. counting on taking early enemy is a shot in the dark but valid strategy.[/quote] But I wouldn't need to of sacrificed my essence to start building. If I take over one by force I am essentially stronger for it. Right?
Hope it's okay if I ask something about gameplay. One of the biggest problems I have with these types of games is stacking units on one "square". - Does Elemental allow stacking on one square, or some kind of limit? - Is there an option to disable stacking?
But I thought that since you come across people in the world, that generate income/research points etc, you could somehow get by with just that. In this YouTube vid he does explain that he is getting revenue "even now" (at 5:58), without having build anything. And by not sacrificing essence in doing so, the result would be making you more powerful. So instead of building, I could make my living from conquering others. Is that no
Wish they had larger pictures, would love to be able to see that first one in fullscreen....not a great preview really. To be honest, if I didn't already know a lot of the game this article wouldn't make me very interested.
