@ GW Lol, fair enough. ...United Factions, whatever you want to call it. The point of this topic is to get everyone's thoughts on how (or even if it can work). I used UN as a label because it was something that I easily identified with in helping to get my idea across. If you or someone else has a better name for it, I have no issues with editing the topic so it fits more closely with the "elemental" theme. I think your modern language theory is pretty interesti

Landisaurus beat me too it! Basically took the words out of my mouth. @GW I think you're right that might be a little weird for all these nations just to meet up on a regular basis. All these channelers are not gonna travel half way across the world all the time just to discuss things like trade routes. That's why I like the idea of having smaller guilds or concils. You're Hobbiton example was a good example. The hobbits are not gonna go meet with men, elves and dwarves. H

(Closes eyes and concentrates) Something is coming to me...The kingdom of Yoren are the religous goody-two shoes who prefer extra cream in their coffee. And....aawee man...it all faded to gray. Well, thats enough mind reading for one day. Speaking of coffee...I think I need some...Im tiiirrreedd!

PBEM would be really cool in this game! I remember how much fun it was in Civ4. I would join a game with 30 people and we would play for months! The guy that organized it also created a website where each nation had its own forum. Most of the diplomacy was handled on the forums which was a cool way to particapate eventhough you werent playing out your turn.

Oh my bad...not Jenna Jameson. Club Jenna was the name of the program that was viewing, got it confused. At least they got $5 for for 30 seconds of penis viewing... Comcast definitely learned the "hard" way... Badoom ching (cricket chirps). Is thing on? Dont forget to tip your waitress.....

Yeah, it's crazy heh? Remember the big stink they made over the whole Janet Jackson thing? And you had to be plastered to your TV to even notice it. Well, imagine just 15 seconds of straight Jenna Jameson porn. That's bringing it to a whole another level. I think the whole thing is pretty comical but I feel bad for any children who might have seen it. I wonder what Comcast's next move will be.

They probably wont implement this but it would be cool to call for a "council" after a mega event. For example, some evil dragon appears and is threating to destory the land. You could have the option to call a council with the other factions and decide how to deal with the threat. It's a pretty general idea and havent thought out if it could logically applied...but that video clip made me think of it. Happy Monday everyone!

[quote who="landisaurus" reply="11" id="2043826"]Well, it would be the channelers, not kings or normal men/fallen. So I imagine that it would be something like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdqXKa-DCpA&feature=related [/quote] LOL! That clip is dope! I could def see something like this

It looks pretty sweet. Post your thoughts if either of you end up playing it.

I apologize for not making myself clearer. I didn't mean an actual United Nations. I meant a United Nations of sorts...like the concept...of course it wouldnt be called United Nations. Call it a council, a gathering, or a bumblee tuna for all I care. :P I'm just interested if you guys think the "concept" would fit into the game theme...and if it does, would you guys be interersted in it? Maybe give some ideas of how you think it should work. Landisaurus, I

Will their be a United Nations (of sorts) in Elemental? It would be kinda cool to have but dont know if it will fit the theme. What do you guys think?

Looks like a nice rig, void! Thanks for the info. My main problem right now is trying to decide between a dual or a quad. It looks as though most games dont support quad right now. So, it would make the most sense to get a dual. However, knowing my luck the minute i buy a dual...all games will start going to quad. It would be nice to have something future proof but if it's not going happen for another 2-3 years, then forget it. Any opinions this, ladies and gents?

If the price is right, I wouldnt mind buying one. If I can save money assembling it, then I would rather go that route. Thanks for all the info guys! I will take your suggestions and check out the provided links. I will post back when I know what I'm going to get! Thanks again!

I'm looking to assemble a new gaming PC but havent stayed on top of the latest and greatest technologies. Can you reccomend some processors/motherboards/video cards/sound cards for me. I would like to stay in the 1-1.5k range for the entire system...not looking for a Frog 2009 machine :P Any help or links would be appreciated! Thanks!

Thanks for the info! Karma for all 3 of you!

Love all these ideas! Have they discussed how hereos will appear in the game? Do we purchase them, make them or do they just randomly show up? Sorry if this has been discussed before but Im pretty new to the forums.
