[quote who="joasoze" reply="7" id="2655258"]Writing the hardest to read post ever and calling it "Get rid of the clutter" You have overdone yourself. I just cannot get through it... [/quote] LoL, sorry, my friend. I'm still experimenting with a " Highlighting Color " everyone likes or that isn't hard to read.

[quote who="tesb" reply="9" id="2655261"]i agree on your post, but your choice of colors is making a mockery of it. [/quote] Do a "refresh" on the page. Better Now? What's everyone think a good color should be for us to highlight things? @Everyone: Also, more feedback on WHY this is a good system? What makes this system any better or worse then just having another screen to tell you what cities you have and where your armies and heroes are? Yes, it can be
[quote who="Wintersong" reply="3" id="2655252"]Also: your choice of colours still needs upgrading. The Tree is fine, only needs to adapt and improve to map size, resolution of screen... and if possible, customizable so we can sort how it shows information. [/quote] I have to say I think we dissagree on this one, my friend. I don't think "The Tree is Fine". It was novel and handy on Small Maps in SoaSE, but anything bigger then a hand-full of systems and ships and
[quote who="Impulsivity" reply="1" id="2655239"]i wish i was able to get rid of the side thing still keeps getting in the way... they should allow you to change almost anything about the UI for elemental when it comes out. [/quote] Indeed. Even with the Tree Tabs " Minimized " it still got in the way and Broke Immersion , for me at least. [quote who="choarrim" reply="2" id="2655244"]you know you can always minimize the info so it wont get in

I'd like to hope and pray that a MMORPG of Fallout would be cool, but, I'm highly sceptical of anything with the letters "MMO" attached to it these days. Cross your fingers and hope for the best.....but expect the worste. *crosses fingers*

Newzbin2 is online how-ever :P hehe, I'm just being a smart ass. ;) I am rather peeved though that they no longer list the News groups I used for watching the stock markets. It's more or less just the pirated stuff now and not much, if any, actual "News". It's really a let down because the Original Newzbin
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="12" id="2654452"]I just thought the shard was cool. [/quote] It was indeed Cool :) . Honestly though, I was expecting a video that was a little...longer, maybe. Like a spell going off or being cast or something. As always though, any info is Greatly Appreciated. Thanks, Frogboy!! :)

[quote who="kyogre12" reply="13" id="2654565"]Ok, looking through old dev journals, I found this: In terms of models and animation, we use Intel’s Havok. We also have a tool we’ll be releasing that makes Havok files work with Elemental. These are all free. What you make your models and other 3D assets in is up to you. We use Maya and 3D Studio (depending on artist preference). https://forums.elementalgame.com/376437/page/2/#replies [/quote]</

You obviously got the point of the whole thing. I do try to liven the place up, as it were. Especially now with all the other BS I'm going through in my life, I need as many good laughs as I can get (even though actually laughing hurts like hell atm) . [quote who="Tormy-" r

[quote who="strager" reply="7" id="2653976"]Why not have no units at all? Just the sovereigns battling it out? And while we are at it we can make it from a first person perspective, and add guns and stuff.... it's Elemental WAR of Magic, not Elemental: Small Skirmishes of Magic![/quote] %100 Agree. I couldn't have said it better my-self. Well done, my friend. [e digicons]k1[/e] [quote who="larrypeters" reply="6" id="2653955"]That being said, I fully expect a "unit" of peasants
I would really, Really, REALLY like to see a few "Neutral Settlements" in the world of Elemental. The problem here-in though lies with the Lore of the Game. According to the Lore everything has been blasted by a Cataclysm. It's 100 years later and it's time to rebuild civilization. Naturally I think some survivors would have banded together to try to survive, and maybe even built a small community or two. If these get included in the base game though they would have to be Super Ra
No Limits Please... There Will be some kind of limit in place simply from a "processing power" point of view. That's why the Total War games have a hard capped limit. Once you get so many units and individual soldiers on screen and moving at once it will seriously bog-down performance. Things will start looking laggy and generally just "bad". Rather then slow down
[quote who="MagicwillNZ" reply="1" id="2653850"]Not that I think there's much micromanagement now. I think the "micromanagement" problem is seriously overblown that's actually more a symptom of a weak UI. Plus, we've already got "supertiles", in terms of markets and full-size farms. [/quote] Agreed...%100. @ Winni: It's not a bad idea, perhaps a little more refinement is needed though. If not carefully done I could see it being abused. Then agai

[quote who="Zamul" reply="13" id="2651713"]About Lord Kona; I don't suppose you've read anything in the Lore section of this site? Excerpt: "Kona the Dread Lord had fashioned his empire on the premise that he was the supreme power of the world. Central to his power was the orb of dominion, a tool that he had conceived and helped wrought with the aid of his brothers." ...and so on. Kona, Dread Lords and Arnor are as much a part of the Elemental lore as the GalC
[quote who="Sushikawa" reply="9" id="2653783"]His speaking voice is fine. Don't see what exactly is so funny about this. Dude has some serious vocal flexibility. Maybe you should get outside a little more Raven and stop thinking about other guys balls so much? [/quote] lol I didn't say he couldn't sing well. It just amazes me how well he can sound like a chick. I'm sorry, I just happen to think it's funny as hell.

[quote who="k10w3" reply="68" id="2653520"] It's like having a trophy wife. Yeah, it looks good in the photos to impress your friends, but there's no WAY it's going to give you the genuine love, affection and devotion of one that's a little homely and came straight out of the trailer park. Actually, that's the problem with these girlfriend-from-hell-deletes-your-computer-game-stuff videos, too. They're uppity, cutesy little girls, with way too much self esteem, pro
