Merry Christmas! Don't spend too much time on Elemental during Christmas. Christmas time is family time. :)

Congratz @ Derek. A perfect choice. I think he will bring a huge boost for the future development of E:WoM.

Their review is indeed a little bit strange: pros: + very long campaign (about 20 hours) ...ehm hello?^^ But I think they have also some good points in it. And they reviewed the game in its current state (no outdated pre-release version).

I have not much time, but here is their conclusion: Martin Deppe wrote: "Real love-hate. Rarely I wanted to fling my arms around the developers neck and simultaneously wanted to choke them. Elemental does some things insanely well: This consistent graphic design which looks all of a piece, the great unit designer, the combination of city building, exploring and fighting. And then there are things which drive me crazy. Such as the messy unit selection or these very slooo

Mostly playing aside from Elemental atm: Victoria II or Starcraft II. Both very great games. Starcraft II for the fast action and nice story. And Vicky 2 is just great if you want to have a longtime experience with developing a country and all its complexitiy (same as Elemental). Minor playing: Sins of a Solar Empire (I have still one nice longtime save game left -> just playing a little bit from time to time) and Mount&Blade Warband (perfect multiplayer for rela

I get a better performance while using the hardware mouse cursor (not a huge performance boost but better than with the standard cursor). But sadly the tactical battles are unplayable with the hardware mouse cursor (no arrows and magic effects, attacking doesn't work after some turns anymore...).

[quote who="Mivo" reply="2" id="2737277"]My (German) bookstore still lists it as "pre-order". I did order it, but so far no sign of it. Not being in the US probably adds a few days or weeks, as usual (unless it's popular stuff).[/quote] I ordered it two days ago on amazon.de and today I hold it in my hands.

If you are talking about Elemental: Destiny Embers: There will be a campaign exclusively for the owner of the book which will be splitted in four parts. I don't have my book yet, but I think the additional campaign will either attend the book's story or will continue it.

[quote who="JackArbiter" reply="22" id="2730242"]If it's true then they shouldn't have ever done a "bill of rights." There are always bugs, usually very serious ones. Starcraft II released with broken sound for some people, missions with endings that wouldn't proc, and issues where people had problems accessing some single player features. Have you seen the ending credits for starcraft II? There are like 500 people that worked on the game. Last year it was revealed

[quote who="Ektimelleas" reply="6" id="2713705"]I was very surprised that amazon even sells the book in Germany. So I'm happy to get the additional campaign... and maybe a nice story, too [/quote] This! There are still 4 books left on amazon.de. Maybe some other in Germany living people also want it. ;)

Frogboy mentioned they changed the GUI in the day0 update to a more intuitive way. I think this will include this "issue" here.
