[quote quoting="post"]Worrying trend I've noticed recently it that game prices are starting to creep up into the ridiculous. Starcraft 2 was the one which seems to have got this ball rolling, being one of the priciest games I've bought in a long time, but I notice Fallout New Vegas weighing in on the heavy side, and now Arcania at a ludicrous £45. It seems the average price for games has jumped from £25 to £35 overnight (post SC2), yet money is tighter than ever for people (

We weren't even planning on being here today. So realistically we're looking at 7pm EST (US) at the earliest.

My guess is they had a hitch and now beta testers and pre-orders are going to get it at the same time.

Assuming morning is 9 AM in the US(eastern), for those in europe that will be around 15:00(CET). Given that there will be delays and that the download will take a little while, my guesstimate is that i'll be playing the game around 17:30+ Can you link me to that post pl
The biggest thing he could find and talk about in length was a maths problem? Okay....
That's hardly a review, but i do hope the inaccurecys and spelling mistakes are weeded out by the 0day update.

Plus the A.I[quote who="TheProgress" reply="6" id="2720386"] Quoting delijoe79, reply 4 Why would he use the zero day version to do an AAR and then release an older build? I'm pretty sure tomorrow's release will be the zero day minus the multiplayer servers... Maybe because they're still working on the 0-day patch? It was scheduled to be released on the 24th. Just because he's playing with it doesn't mean its completed. [/quote]</p
[quote who="charon2112" reply="73" id="2720300"]one other question. If I buy the deluxe version, or the regular retail box version, what is the manual like? I love a good printed manual, but these seem to be going away lately. I'd be happy if it was as nice as the one that comes with Galciv 2 Ultimate Edition...

[quote who="RooksBailey" reply="45" id="2719141"] Quoting timphiz, reply 30 Seeing poor young Sandra marry that... guy... gives me an idea. Maybe your children could have a chance of running away from an arranged marriage based on their compatibility with their bride/groom and their loyalty to you. If they run away they might seek refuge in some other civilization and start working for them as a champion. That's a good idea! If it isn't in the game
[quote who="simonharding" reply="52" id="2719375"]I am sooooo looking foward to this game. I only read about it a couple of weeks ago, and have been sucking up any tit bits of information about it I can find anywhere. I am a long term strategy fan, Gal Civ, Sins etc, and love the idea of the 4x RPG hybrid. Loving the sneak peek story Frogboy, but I too have some questions about the Dynasty system. As an earlier poster asked - how do the children units react when a marriage to
There are loads of threads like this so i doubt a dev will answer so i'll answer for you. 1. The A.I is more then competent in the gold version but will also get improved again in the 0day patch. A.I has never been a problem in stardock games so i wouldn't worry about this. 2. Us Beta testers weeded out most of the bugs that we encountered and I expect the team played the hell out of the beta 5 and gold version before they sent it to the reviewers so again
I never even botheed to go through any of Gal Civ 2's campaigns and its one of my games ever. I want to see what Stardock do with the lore but i just want to do my own thing not follow a restrictive campaign so 8hrs seems about right to me.
[quote who="Anomander" reply="45" id="2718397"] quoting post My advice would be this: If you are buying Elemental primarily for MP, don't. It has it. It works. But IMO, it's not worth $50 to play the game MP primarily. If you like MP in ADDITION to having a fantastic single player game (and make no mistake, Elemental, as a single player game, is awesome in its release form) then absolutely, get it. So there's my 2 cents. <br

I am buying this game purly for SP, i had planned to try MP out aswell as it is there but no tactical battles takes half the fun out of the game for me so i'll be sticking to SP. However i hope this can be resolved sometime in the near future for the sake of gamers who want to create and play multiplayer mods with tactical battles. No one is going to want to invest time into new models, spells etc for a multiplayer mod if they are not even going to get to see them in tac battles.
Love it can't wait! Anyone know how many turns is a year game time?
Thats a good idea, but maybe just a spell not a whole book that could be very unbalanced.
Some quests in the beta did give you a spell. not sure if it was random as i acquired several spells this way. I doubt you will be able to capture eniemy spellbooks on release though.
Yes, Brad already said so in the Destiny Embers thread. Though In the event they mess it up and forget to add the code to the kindle version some how i am sure stardock team will be able to run a buyer verification system and issue replacement codes.
