No offense, but how about we let the professional developers set their own pace. Offering suggestions on how to improve the game is all well and good, but telling them the method they should be using or the pace...that's just arrogance. Put another way, let the adults do their job so that we kids can play.
[quote who="the_Monk" reply="6" id="2772441"] Speaking of "epic".....I found this user's forum signature while posting on one of the other forums I help out on and thought it was apropos given the thread title! 1. epic ~ the most overused word ever, next to fail. for even more asshole points, use them together to form "epic fail." everything is epic now. epic car. epic haircut. epic movie. epic album. epic shut
[quote who="Fightingweasles" reply="2" id="2749958"]Out of interest did you submit your error log in the support forum so they can gather more comparison data to make sure the next patch covers the issue you had, or are you just hoping the patch will correct it and accept that if it doesn't that you will be waiting and hoping for the next one after that will?[/quote] That wasn't his point. He was simply using his own personal experience to comment on a larger issue. Next time rea
Turns out it was a bug. I WAS able to build on the newly flat land, I just had to exit the game and reload it for it to register.
I thought the whole point of lower land was to clear space for making a bigger city. I've turn the entire map flat and my cities are still just as limited on space as before. Is this a bug?
This is an idea from civ, but it's really needed in this game as well. When a city levels up, half the time, I'm not even sure which one I'm looking at and what I was specializing it for. We need to be able to examine the city so that we can tell which upgrade to choose.
Well thanks for the individual help, but I really did mean it as a suggestion for the game's future development, not as a personal troubleshooting question. Seems like it would be pretty simple to just add an "edit" button.
Just a small idea, we should be able to edit our already-made Sovereigns. Lots of times, I'll make a guy and try him out, only to find that I miss-spent 5 or 10 points. But now I have to go back and remake the whole character again, rather than just tweaking the guy I already have. This is especially annoying if I spent a long time getting the looks of the guy right (such as the perfect colors).
[quote who="asteroides" reply="13" id="2736075"]They have alot more important things to do than this IMO. Not to rag on the idea of improving the name generator, but i hope if this is taken into consideration its very low on the priority list.[/quote] There is no one big "priority list" for game development. Lots of people on the team have individual list. So while the world builders make better maps and the artist make better models, there might be an intern sitting ar
[quote who="efarias" reply="10" id="2735606"] I agree 100% with stethnorun and Baleurion. The current random name generator is pretty lame. There is an old Games workshop stategy game, Mighty Empires I think was the name, it used multiple tables to product names, so if you were creating a city you would roll first to find out how many elements the name contained. Different races had different maximum numbers of elements. Then you would roll a
Yeah sorry for the double post...the forums were lagging really bad when I was posting. If a mod wants to close this one down, please go for it.
Loving the game so far, but one thing that really stands out is the horrible names that the name generator spits out. It seems like the coding of the generator is such that it says "throw a bunch of alternating vowels and consonants into a word that's between 4 and 16 letters long". Needless to say, it takes hitting the button a good 10-15 times before a name that is even usable (though still not good) will pop up. At least for the city names, it would be nice if there w

Aw. Oh well, thanks anyway.
I just got done pre-ordering the game because I heard you can get access to the BETA. I thought the email recipt would contain a link to download, but no such luck. Can someone link me to the download site? Thanks!
