[quote who="pad152" reply="42" id="2679634"]Ahh but, will this beta finally answer the question of will Elemental have dungeons? [/quote] Well maybe not on release but I'd really like to see X-Com type tactical battles when you do Quests. Instead of allowing your Army in a Quest only use Sovereigns+Champions+Summons or atleast limit Quests to small tactical squads. Birthright did something sim, but I didn't really care for this game ;0 <img src="http://uplo

You don't have to research it at the moment you can press X it basically shortcuts Raze City without it being researched. [quote who="Blackoth" reply="4" id="2679618"] thats a bit rediculious, im pretty sure barbarians never needed to research how to sack a village......someone didnt think that one through [/quote] Sacking and Razing are alittle diffrent. But you're saying you could take down a city without learning how to do it eh? <a hre

Release the Kraken

Just curious, will this make Summon Imp near useless in later games or will Int increase the effeciveness of summons so they're always useful?

I don't think we've even seen a fraction of what's to come in Gear . Look at some of the in game Sovereigns and youll notice alot of things we can eventually play around with.

[quote who="Belwolvie" reply="32" id="2679378"]I can really see the potential for creating remakes of Ultima IV or V with the elemental engine, the tactical battle system would work wonderfully with this. I look forward to having a go at something like this during Beta 4. [/quote] Oh man can you say Mod? I'm a huge fan of the Ultima Series. I spent a good Junk of life in Ultima Online Beta untill they decided to make it a little to Easycore Some

[quote who="Twohawks" reply="2" id="2679377"] personally I would like to see a few less quest and greater rewards as well... [/quote] I agree. When it comes to quests I prefer less but deeper well thought out quests with high rewards rather than many small quests. Saying that though; I'm sure that the beta is just giving us a very small bite of what's to come with quests.

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="25" id="2679354"] Quoting Marks1381, reply 24 Quoting Frogboy, reply 13 Quoting MagicwillNZ, reply 10 Hey Brad... I'm concerned that we won't see 10,000 man armies anymore. Is that the case? There won't be 10,000 unit armies in v1.0. It'll probably top out at hundreds instead of thousands in a given fight. We'll look at increasing the limit in the future. Thank goodness.

Maybe they just want us to really test the crap out of Questing spawns. I agree Questing is def a WIP but hey it's Beta. Hopefully Brad puts all that writing skills into his quests, but then again he is the AI guy but we all like to think of him as the everything guy. Btw I have 3x as many quests as you [e digicons]\o/[/e]

You guys are really rolling 3, 3A, and soon 3B? I thought sleep was a necessity. I'm starting to wonder if Stardock was the right CO Name.. Insomniacs might have made more sense =P j.k Thanks for the update! Looking really forward to 3-B.

[quote who="crazedrobot01" reply="17" id="2678637"]I just uploaded 9 bug crashes via drop-box Quoting BlackRainZ, reply 6 The game that will be released is not going to be the final version. Frogboy even said that he would continue to work on this game for at least another year, which means that 5 or 6 months from now the game might be completely different from what it is now, due to balancing and adding new content and such. I really don't understand what people a

1 Stardock employee equals 50 firaxis employees where is the logic there? [e digicons]:ninja:[/e] J/k kinda sorta not really. [e digicons]:beer:[/e]

1. Slots available? 2. Just choose where you'd like to focus your research " Civ, Warefare, Magic, Quests, Diplomacy " and Sub Catagories it's a little strange at first. 3. Research Quests 4. Adjacent (I think eventually it's just influence) 5. Not entirely sure about this one. Hope this helped a little!

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="10" id="2678557"]There's a few things about the technology system that are worth discussing I think. 1. The current general system is there to stay. we're obviously not going to change it in Elemental 1.x. 2. The general balance of the tech system has NOT been implemented. 3. There are only two tech trees in the beta (as opposed to the 3 for v1.0 and 10 for v1.01 ). 4

[e digicons]5*[/e] You guys are really doing an amazing job and I'd like to personally thank Brad and the team(CM) for allowing me to be apart of your beta game. This really has been a new and exciting experience for me. I'd also like to mention fun not only I have had but my girlfriend Amy has also. Just a few days ago she created a the world of Shoosh and Mistress Clare after an hour in the Sovereign creator (She couldn't decide what shoes looked best

Heh, good sir you've been in a number of betas, and this is how most beta testers voice there feelings towards a game. If you think this is bad take a look at some of the other forums, Starcraft 2 for example. This community is far more civilized than most I've encountered. Never the less I agree it would be nice if people understood how betas really work, but i'm positive the Devs were more than aware of how negetive and postive the community would be. This thread and even my

I do the same.

Thanks for the Q&A i'm sure this will cool some peoples jets, atleast mine are now luke warm ;) Great Job guys keep it up!

I was thinking maybe you could seperate what you see by adding in Books of magic so you're a little more organized in the UI department. When I want to cast a Fire spell all you would need to do is Click on the "Fire Magic Book" and it lists Fire Spells same goes with every catagory. Also the Popup for Spell Description is so far to the right I'm always looking back and forth, maybe closer to the spell pointer would be a little less strenuous on the eyes.
